While I am glad John Stewart is there to counter the freaks on Fox, I can't help but feel frustrated that the liberal point of view is left to comedians. It's getting harder and harder to laugh.

(7,473 posts)2. Wow, spot on. Sure would like to meet John Stewart.
He has the courage to tell it like it is. Everything he says, in my opinion, is right on.
My opinion only but I must state that I am disgusted with the way this country is headed.
Bad to worse. This old timer is ready to throw in the towel.

It's not picky. One is his name and the other isn't.
