Jon Stewart has already figured out President Barack Obama's "October surprise":
"He has given up."
That was the start of a furious Stewart takedown on the Obama campaign's much-maligned Big Bird ad, which was panned universally by Republicans and members of the media.
Stewart painted the last few days of the Obama campaign as "The Great Muppet Caper," saying that the "Big Bird" response was a "great next day comeback" — but probably should have ended there.
Stewart buried his face in his hands after showing a clip of the Obama campaign's ad, which sarcastically casts Big Bird as a corporate savage comparable to Bernie Madoff and Kenneth Lay.
The most damning line in that ad, according to Stewart? "I'm Barack Obama, and I approve this message."

Jon is exactly where he belongs.He has chosen politics as the focal point of his comedy routine.Whether anything constructive will ever come from his efforts remains to be seen.It truly is a sad world when one can make a career out of taking jabs at everyone else.My hope is that someday he enters politics and can see first hand the adversity politicians encounter.
ReplyDeleteSee you all do not understand. Obama is still a kid and plays with toys still.
ReplyDelete10:25, do you complain when he pokes fun at Republicans? He actually hit Romney a couple of times in that piece, too.
ReplyDelete3;17 you beat me to it. My exact sentiments when I saw this post. Are you surprised that the answer is "NO"?
