Jon Stewart's rebuttal to the Romney farewell speech.
I'm sure this was discussed last night, but I cant' find the threads.

The Daily Show put up the clip of Romney declaring that a Democrat winning the election would be the equivalent of surrendering to terrorism. Jon tapped his pen, and looked pissed. I kept hoping, "Say it, Jon. Say it for all of us."

Stewart finally spoke: He said that normally they'd have a roomful of writers discussing the proper reaction to Romney's comment. "But it's just me. FUCK YOU!" I cheered.

Yes, Mitt. Fuck you. From all us and in your face: Fuck you.

I'm going to have to catch that one on today's repeats. Maybe add it as a ring tone. ;)

11. Well, the ringtone would be a "beep"; but there was no doubt what Stewart was saying.

13. This needs to be seen.
Some of the candidates -- on both sides -- have been making a serious effort to get rid of hyperbole and needless divisiveness. Romney, however, decided to take it to a new level with his pronouncements about "liberals" ruining this country.

fuck you.

14. Jon speaks for me.

Which is a good thing, because the only other folks who heard me say that after watching Mittens speech were my wife and the cat.

18. That was great!
Just about a week or so back they showed Romney speaking about no sex before Marriage and had John Oliver reporting at the scene of Romney headquarters, the report was all in black and white in a town from the 50's. Classic!
