<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>Seriously, while I don't consider it to be a substitute for real news, Jon's coverage of the 9/11 Commission findings is awesome! First, the commission says something. Then, the Bush administration says "you're wrong" and "we didn't say that". Then, Jon whips out a direct quote from the person in question that says "yes, you DID say that". This has been going on for the past 3-4 days.

The man really is balanced with finding the truth (liberal or conservative), but the Bush administration has been throwing SOOOOO many direct lies that it's hard to ignore. If you've miss any of the good bits, the CC web site has some good videos <a href="http://www.comedycentral.com/mp/browse. ... s">here</a> (RealVideo, unforunately).

I love seeing lying politicians squirm when confronted with their own lies.</div>

It's like the people who are voting for Bush either doesn't know about the lies or doesn't believe that they are lies.</div>

Do conservatives watch the Daily Show, or do they consider it part of the liberal media conspiracy?

"With all due respect, your personal beliefs are not a law, you are not citing a law, you are not invoking executive priveledge, and frankly, that's what contempt of Congress is all about."
