Exactly....like much of the other shows on the network: Fox and Friends, Studio B, Your World, Glen Beck, The O'Reily Factor, Hannity, Fox Report, On the Record, The Beltway Boys, Huckabee, Geraldo at large, Special Report with Brit Hume, Weekend Live, Just In, Pat Sajak, Drudge, Fox Wire, The Edge, 212, Fox X-Press

Its like Comedy Central for conservatives.

Yeah, I don't see what the big deal is. I've seen Jon Stewart do far worse.
Stewart is at least funny. These guys remind me of your typical ATOTer, the douchbaggery is strong in them.

More to the point, Stewart hosts a comedy show on a network called "Comedy Central." He has never claimed that it's an actual news show and doesn't try to run it like one. To compare a show on "Comedy Central" to a show on a network that calls itself "Fox News Channel" and that, further, claims to be a "fair and balanced" answer to other, supposedly biased channels, is pretty pathetic.

In any case, I didn't find it "offensive" so much as lame.

I found this video offensive to the extreme because I assume those bozos would have a clue as to the canadian contribution in afghanistan. Maybe they are just idiots trying to be funny to their targeted idiotic self centered American audience. Either way the video was featured as one of the main news article on the CBC last nigh and it makes all americans look like a bunch of ass hole.
So to the people who think this video was funny: FUCK YOU,YOU BIGOTED UN EDUCATED SELF CENTERED MORRONS.

For the record, I completely support the Canadian involvement in Afghanistan and my son is getting ready for a tour of duty over there.

Is that all you have to say? Why do you participate on a primarily American message board if you hate our flag so much?

Typical Eurotrash...

NO other western nation.

Show me ONE other western nation that has anything LIKE that on at 3am local time.

He's mentally deranged. A typical Euro-Supremacist.

AKA "Little man syndrome". Usually caused by being in a country that is as relevant to the world stage as Jamaica.

I did not watch the clip. I did read the entire thread.

Some people are saying that it's comedy or parody and, after all, it's on at 3 a.m. Others say that to put such a show on a "News" network is pretty questionable. It has been said that with a quasi-infotainment show like John Stewart, as least he's on a "Comedy" network.

I posit this: Is this "parody" program on a "news" network at 3 a.m. any worse than Cramer on a news network at 3 p.m.?

He recently got taken behind the woodshed by the comedy show. His show on CNN is like "Weenie and the Butt" or any 'wacky FM DJ' show on NPR,

I rarely watch their news programs so I've never come across this particular bunch of assholes. Do they make it a habit of offending people on purpose? :frown:

LOL...might want to put some Deisitn on your ass to soothe that burning, chafing feeling you got from your panties being all bunched up.

They managed to insult the whole country. Now they are apologizing and so should you.

Who was that guy with the big ears? He looks like some yokel from Alabama who has a sister for a mother.

They are yokels though. They even look like it, and sound suspiciously...ladylike.

I've seen that man wear a spike dog collar while hosting, and nobody said anything. He comes across as the kind of dipshit I would have had to meet had I lived in the dorms in college.

He is from Belgium, a country best known for its use of slavery into the 20th century and its history in creating the Rwanda Genocide. I'd say that's a little more relevant to the world stage than Jamaica.
