Freaking awesome. Loved how he got all verklempt. "That's where Acorns would go if you ate them." "Why am I the only one asking these questions?"

Your faith does not amuse me. Fundamentalism is a singularly unfunny disposition- A Rightist Puppet

In short, "fascist" is a modern word for "heretic," branding an individual worthy of excommunication from the body politic. The right uses otherwords ("reverse-racist," "feminazi," "unamerican," "communist") for similiar purposes, but these words have less elastic meanings. Fascism, however, is the gift that keeps on giving. - Jonah Goldberg, revisited.

FLAWLESS parody. Pitch-perfect. Hand gestures down pat. Perfect voice inflection.

It was pretty good, but Beck is already a parody of himself. Why laugh at Stewart's parody of Beck when I just change the channel to Fox News and literally have a buffet of choices of crazy people to laugh at.

The same reason Perseus carried a polished silver shield when facing Medusa. Except turning one stupid instead of to stone.

It's a disgrace! Stephen Colbert is nothing but an idiot who likes to make fun of Conservatives, then again, most Liberals really are idiots.
Jordtopia is basically a combination of America during the early 20th century, the early stage of the Cold War, and modern America mixed together and topped off with a hint of Social Conservatism

I wondered how long it would take for someone to post this. Jon Stewart acting like Beck is hilarious!

A long time ago, Jon Stewart had a short lived syndicated talk show where he did what I had regarded as one of the best talk show bits I've ever seen.

He had on a guest from a zoo doing the usual routine, bringing out animals in an animated manner. One of the animals he brings out is a cane toad, which he places on Stewart's lap. He then informs Stewart that that is the 'hallucinogenic toad.' Stewart jokes about how he put it on his lap before telling him that, then playfully, during the guys schpeel, touches the toad with his tongue. Usual host hygincs, laugh laugh laugh, move on.

They then go to a white table where they are going to demonstrate another animal. It's then that you notice that Stewart is starting to act a little strange. He blinks his eyes and then his hands melt into the table and we join him on a psychedelic trip. Perfectly set up and executed.

This Beck thing was close to that level. It was awesome.
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.
