On last night's 'Daily Show', Jon Stewart pointed out that many of the protesters in Liberty Park are saying things that are very similar to what Tea Party supporters were saying themselves.....back in 2009. But, if you ask a Tea Partier today what their opinion is of the masses gathered, demonstrating against corporate greed in New York City, they make it sound like it's a bunch of uneducated Nazi zombies.
"They probably don't even masturbate to the Constitution."
As some of you may know, during last Monday's episode of 'Dancing with the Stars', Nancy Grace had a "wardrobe malfunction". Her right breast was hanging out of her dress, on live television, for the better part of a minute.
Immediately, word of the nipple slip spread like wildfire. Every media outlet in the nation was reporting on the celebrity judge's embarrassing moment. Even Fox News weighed in on the controversy. Now, you would think that a woman's bare breast, shown repeatedly on national television would spark outrage by the pundits at Fox. After all 'Dancing with the Stars' is supposedly a program that is going to be seen by "many children". It airs at 7PM on Monday and Tuesday nights, on a network owned by the Disney corporation.
Not exactly. The story received all of a ten second mention. It was more along the lines of, "Supposedly this happened last night. I wasn't watching the show, so I can't tell you if it did or not." It was mentioned that Chaz Bono was dealing with a painful knee injury. To segue into the next segment, one of the anchors mocked Bono by saying, "That's one part of Chaz that hasn't been operated on."
Watch the offensive clip, as well as Jon Stewart's reaction:
Fox News: A bunch of middle school bullies with communication degrees.
"Republicans are no longer allowed to say that people are “rich.” (They) have to refer to them as “job creators.” You can’t even use the word “rich” — you have to say “This chocolate cake is so moist and job creator.” My favorite comic book is Job Creator-ie Job Creator.””
- 'The Daily Show's' Jon Stewart referring to the GOP's favorite new euphemism.
38, queer, poly, happily married punk and stay at home dad to my five-year-old, Elle. In June of 2009, I was diagnosed with Tourette's Syndrome, and PTSD a month later. I have been on disability since. In recent months, I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia,Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Sjogren's Syndrome, a Chiari malformation, small fiber neuropathy, Type 1 Diabetes, and have a massive benign cyst in my brain.

I haven't been writing as often as I would like to lately. Trying to catch up on some lost time. Please forgive me.
I'm an anarchist and an atheist. My political views are too far left to even be considered Democrat. I believe that marriage and health care are fundamental human rights. And don't get me started on people calling themselves "pro-life", and denying education and food stamps to children.
