OP
What is a "Radical Islam" fight? Your headline title implication is not what is in the clip, or the article.

Its what the medical community calls MSNBC-itis, Stewart said. Its a condition where one uses facts and research to refute opponents, delivered whilst bespectacled, in a tone suggesting you cant believe you have to explain this to these f*cking idiots again. Symptoms include: cancellation.
I am with Obama. Can not believe he has to explain it again and again.

It is the right wing meme that insists it is Islam that is at fault.

And yes even those on DU can fall for it.
