for the first time since I started watching it in '97, I stopped recording The Daily Show today after last night's episode.

The Stewart/Colbert McCain Bash Hour is getting a little tiresome, it's like digging up Old Yeller's decomposing corpse and kicking it some more... he's dead, Jim.

am I the only one looking forward to November 5th when McCain can go back out to pasture, we can stop with the non-stop attacks, and actually think about what the impending Obama Administration is going to be like?

Stewart has been far worse than Colbert, though. Stewart's just a blatant liberal and their writing has gotten progressively worse. Colbert's show has some superb writers and maintains its freshness, though yes they bash McCain more than they should. That's a combination of them being liberals and the fact that McCain is easier to bash.

I am, it is like Christmas. Except this year I have no TV and Tim Russert's dead, so Christmas without the tree and Santa Claus. I'm more looking forward to December or so when we start finding out who the cabinet members will be.

I can't wait for this election to be over. Also, I will be watching the final results on Fox News. The epic meltdowns that will occur will provide some of the best television ever.

they'll probably see a ratings boom, bashing President Obama is a lot easier than defending twenty-percent-approval-Bush.

I don't know.

If Obama wins I may have to find a new hobby. Will have to take a long vacation from P&N. At least until he take office and starts to screw things up.

No way, anyone who bashes Obama is a racist.

Has SNL ever done a skit that makes fun of Obama himself the way they make fun of Palin?

I predict we'll see half a dozen threads before Christmas discussing the removal of term limits so that we can elect Obama President for life ;)

Oh you wont be waiting too long. In the eyes of the rabid left, he will be waaaaaay to centrist. They will be bashing him here after not too long.

Oh, pick up whats left of your brain, put it back in the jar and seal it. You are not capable of critical thought any more. The ONLY people that bring up race are the reps, any excuse to avoid real issues right?

They make fun of Palin, because she says idiotic things and its easy. Its hard to make fun of Obama, he's just not a funny guy. The guy that does him has his mannerisms and expressions down, which is pretty funny.

I am looking forward to it because I'm tired of listening to lies and repeated talking points from both sides.

However, all the butthurt republicans in this thread need to dry their eyes and change their tampons. McCain/Palin get ripped on by the SNL's and Daily Show's of the world because THEY ARE EASIER TO MAKE FUN OF. Yes, Stewart is an admitted, open liberal, but all of these shows will mock whoever they can find to mock.

If you can SURVIVE through the opening segments, the interviews on the Daily Show are actually very good - and he does interviews with people like Ron Paul and Mike Huckabee too, and it is not a conservative bash-fest either. Even when Bill Clinton was on, it wasn't exceedingly go liberal.

Why? I don't think it will be anything to look forward to. The Republicans will take off their cheerleading apologist uniforms and trade them to the Democrats for their cheerleading attack uniforms. That's the only change we're going to see.

Yeah, although it will only be for election night. After that, I go back to avoiding that channel unless I want to get upset. Trust me, there will be meltdowns.

Are you stupid or just ignorant?
Racism is the only reason McCain might beat him
How much will white racism hurt Obama
Barack Obama 'pseudo controversies' hide racism
Analysis: Palin's words carry racial tinge
Harry Reid implies radio host is racist for tying Fannie Mae exec to Obama
And let's not forget that the Obama campaign suggested that Bill Clinton was himself a racist due to some of the comments he made back in the spring.

The pattern has already been established. If President Obama calls for my spending on some minority program anyone who opposes it will be called a racist. If Obama appoints a black to some position and someone is critical of that person they will be called a racist.

So the solution will be to.... not elect the black candidate so it doesn't happen? We can't have a black President because any disagreements on his decisions will be labeled as racism?

I'm sure that if there is legit opposition to a decision by Obama, the people objecting will articulate it well so it doesn't leave any doors open for allegations of racism.

Does anyone think McCain will show up on the Daily Show after the election is over? Stewart has been going pretty hard on the old man and Palin is a real easy target. I'd say 90% of his jokes are about them. Think he's one to hold a grudge?

Big trouble is just starting and its not going away Nov 5th no matter who wins. We've been steered into a subprime iceberg on purpose and the ships taking on water section by section. A Marxist gov certainly can't stop the problems and will indeed make them worse - which people will realize quite soon. If McCain wins there would be just a little more time but the Marxists will be fomenting trouble in the streets. Big troubles any way it works out. America has become a nation with too many degenerates and the correction ahead is going to be a shock to a lot of people. One good thing is the many of the useless non profit and egghead type jobs will gone - reality is on the way.
