Because Jon Stewart has never looked flustered on his show about a subject... Please. You sound like a tool defending the word of a stranger against another stranger as such. Why can't he think they're both idiots?
Because he's just dismissing valid criticism rather than offering any reasonable defense of the parties that Stewart has lampooned. His linked rant didn't do any better.
If it came from an idiot and was linked by a moron, then he doesn't have to offer any legit comment, just scorn- Label and Dismiss! ala the great Rushbo himself.
If Jon Stewart makes your head want to asplode, maybe it's time to take a closer look at what's in your head. Both he and Colbert engage in brilliant comedic comment on some of the more asinine stuff coming from our leadership, and neither can really help it if the Right offers a much richer vein of material to work with.
