Jon Stewart on CROSSFIRE!

Jon Stewart was on CNN's CROSSFIRE today, declaring it all theater, declaring the lunch naked, making known the opinion of many that such a farcical slapfigh passing for the highest level of political discourse is in fact hurtful for the country and for democracy. Watching Carlson and Begalia do their best to laugh it off, you really get a sense of how hollow that whole scene is. Stewart's on the main nerve now: it's not Bush that's the problem. He's not even all that good a politician.

What's wrong is the system that let him do what he has done.

Jon, you are now my personal hero, not in any romantic sense, but in the mythic sense that I identify with your struggle and wish that I could do the things you are able to do. My hat is off.
