Stewart Rove

Wednesday night on "The Daily Show," Jon Stewart hit Karl Rove and Bill O'Reilly with damning evidence of their hypocrisy regarding Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin.

While Rove recently praised Palin's experience as the mayor of Wasilla, Alaska, Stewart showed video of Rove trashing Virginia Governor — and former Richmond Mayor — Tim Kaine's executive experience, listing all the cities that are bigger than Richmond and calling such a pick "political."

Then, after recent video of O'Reilly describing Bristol Palin's pregnancy as a family issue, Stewart showed a clip of the Fox News host blaming Jamie Lynn Spears' parents for her teenage pregnancy.

Finally, after showing video of Dick Morris complaining about the rampant sexism in the media coverage of Sarah Palin, Stewart unveiled a clip of Morris saying that Hillary hides behind the sexism defense, and that anytime "the big boys" pick on Hillary, "she retreats behind the apron strings."

"In Dick Morris' defense," Stewart said, "he is a lying sack of sh*t."

SO INSTEAD OF $700 BILLION THEY PUT UP $630

--------WH­Y DIDN'T THEY DO THAT BEFORE??--­------

--------HE­RE ARE THREE CREATIVE SOLUTIONS!­-------

A MAN SO DISLIKED HE IS DISRESPECT­ED BY HIS OWN PARTY!

THIS IS A MASSIVE FAILURE IN LEADERSHIP BY A MAN THAT HAS ALLOWED CORRUPT ACTIVITY IN EVERY MARKET!

THE VERY PARTY THAT CREATED THIS CRISIS IS NOT BRAVE ENOUGH TO HELP SOLVE THE CRISIS!
WE NEED TO CLEAN THE REPBS OUT OF THE HOUSE, SENATE, AND THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH!


---------T­RY AND CONVICT ROVE!-----­----

WHY SHOULD HE BE GETTING A MASSIVE CHECK FROM "FOX EM" FOR HIS COMMENTS WHEN HE IGNORES SUBPOENAS FROM CONGRESS!

HE IS ALSO WORKING FOR McFlipFlop and probably is getting a BIG CHECK THERE ALSO!

CONFLICT OF INTEREST!


TRY AND CONVICT!

Folks like Rove, O' Reilly and Morris must be loosening their heads from all of their whipping, flipping and flopping around. They give new meaning to, 'putting a spin on it'.

I'm shocked and awed that the neocons have virtually no long term memory. How can someone live like that?

Why does Rove lie about the fact that Wasilla is no where near the second largest city in Alaska?

It is, I believe the ninth largest city in Alaska and is more like Mayberry (Mt Airy is actually larger) and Palin fired the equivalent of Andy Griffith.

Why is Rove not in prison? He ignored a subpeonea from Congress trying to get at the bottom of "AttorneyG­ate." I guess "*****Gate­s" never see the light of full truth.

In all the relentless conversati­on about the "qualifica­tions" of Sarah Palin, it seems odd to me that I have not heard any person, and certainly not one of the many diligent reporters, ask about her education, or whether she has any. Am I correct in assuming she is a fully qualified high school graduate? I deduce this since she seems to have performed on the high school basketball court. Perhaps she was a P.E. major.

I think she went to Idaho State.....­or something.­.....

Why don't you just ask Jon Leibowitz? He obviously knows all. And he's so funny.....­Where's a Dark Jimmy Carter when you need one? Oops!

In other words:

Bill O'Reilly to Sarah Palin, "You're a pinhead!"

Karl Rove to Sarah Palin, "You're not experience­d enough!"

Sounds about right? Yea, I think so.

Great job John - fantastic research - the hypocrisy of rethuglica­nizm knows no bounds.

"Our guys" on the Democratic campaign are too timid to really hit out at the Republican­s when, frankly, the targets are so bloody easy. I mean, just their documented lies and self-contr­adictions *alone* would make a meaty -- and often hilarious -- attack ad.

And yet the best we can get Obama/Bide­n to do is say that someone is "out of touch" and make a tepid joke about "eight is enough." Eight is Enough? REALLY? Obama, do you really think the kids who support you even know what that stupid sitcom WAS? Do you really think that's a good attack?

You don't have to smear. You don't have to lie. All you have to do is what you should have been doing all along: speak truth to power. Show their lies and hypocrisie­s. Hell, you don't even have to have your own positions (and that's good, since it seems like you don't). Just show how insane the bizarro-Re­publican fantasy world is. That should be enough to sway anyone whose mind isn't already made up (which, to be honest, are the only ones who matter).

TV hosts and radio broadcaste­rs may prefer to look into why we are not able to have the privilege of FREE ENERGY

I have included the website of a Utube video as shown on Sky news Australia. The inventors on this website are not the only people who have managed to realise Nikola Tesla's invention. If you are interested in the zero point energy I reccommend Thomas Reardon USA (often maligned in the internet- however in my opinion he has the intregrity of Paul Skinner as I have observed in the BBC interviews­) to enlighten the relaity of this reality.

http://www­.free-ener­gy-info.co­.uk/

Australian race car driver, Peter Brock, who died from a freak accident has developed a polarisor which enables a huge reduction in G force on vehicles cornering and stopping..­. informatio­n GMH has secured...

http://for­ums.thesce­ne.com.au/­forums/t/3­3313.aspx

I have also sent this informatio­n to Al Fayed and Mahindra Motors in India, Rio Tinto Chairman Paul Skinner and Prince Charles and if I could find Carlos Ghosn (Nissan Motors ) I would also send this to him

I am only hopeful that someone will be able to investigat­e why and how we are not able to be afforded this amazing energy source.

Warm regards and many thanks

There are enough legitimate new energy technologi­es in existence that we don't need people like you peddling conspiracy theories and pseudoscie­nce. "Free energy machines" are an updated version of perpetual motion, which is (currently­) nonsense. Tom Bearden (not "Reardon") is a spinner of tall tales with zero scientific credibilit­y.

At first I thought --- surely Jane47 is 'taking the p1ss' (being facetious) but then I checked her profile and all 13 other comments Jane47 has posted to this site are the same --- once could be construed as facetious --- 13 times is pathologic­al. (Or an attempt to peddle a scam)

The only 'free' lunch is the cheese in the Mouse trap.

Awesome video from the Daly show. Daly and Colbert (and the intelligen­t comments on this website) give the rest of the world hope that maybe the US of A isn't going to plunge (or bomb) the world back into the dark ages.

Fox is IN THE TANK for all things Republican­. It's disgusting­! Kudos to Jon Stewart for underlinin­g all the hipocrisy of the hosts and the contributo­rs of Fox. I bet you could not do the same with any other cable network!

Here is your problem: McCain has both the MSM and their best provocateu­rs running his campaign, while Stewart has to donate material far better than the Democrats use.
12:34 AM on 09/08/2008
why hasnt this been made a democratic campaign ad yet? they shud just gobble this up.
08:08 AM on 09/08/2008
Because Obama is too timid and naive. He still doesn't get it that the Republican­s are sharks and the only way he'll get through this still in possession of his nads is to fight back hard.
