Jon Stewart: Fox News Shreds The Constitution, Would Toss Every Amendment Except Second (VIDEO)

Jon Hammers 'Fox News' For Shredding The Constitution

For people who claim to love the constitution, Fox News pundits sure seem to be hemorrhaging amendments according to Jon Stewart. On Wednesday night, he took the network to serious task for its emotional and math-challenged reaction to the Boston bombing and the handling of Dzokhar Tsarnaev in the days since his arrest.

In clip after clip, "The Daily Show" host tracked pundits suggesting actions that would disregard the Bill of Rights, including Ann Coulter insisting that Tamerlan Tsarnaev's wife be arrested for wearing a hijab. "Ann Coulter doesn't just want a police state," Jon marveled, "she wants a fashion police state."

Fortunately, even while ripping the constitution to shreds, there's one amendment the right will always defend, the second one. But even that's a slippery slope Jon pointed out: "God help us if the muslims ever decide to form a well-regulated militia."
