Jon Stewart Apologizes for Not Voting Joke, Doesn't Find Anything Funny About Democrats Losing
QOTD
The thing to remember about Stewart and his show is that they will not allow any guest to record or have a unedited copy of their interview. This is because their game is to edit interviews to make people they don't like look foolish and they don't want anyone being able to call them on it by producing an unedited copy of the interview. These of course are the same people who claim that no one should listen to Breitbart of O'Keefe because they release edited videos.
Regardless of his politics, Stewart is a thin skinned humorless asshole and a liar.
