Is this guy to RATS what Rush is to conservatives? He seems to have a huge following and carry a lot of weight with the left wing wacko rags? Wazupwitat?! This is guy the new liberal RUSH to counter Rush??
No, he is not Rush. He is on TV, and his show his 1/2 an hour. He lampoons current events. Watch his show one time if you have a chance. Once you get past the liberal bias, it can be really funny.
'This is guy the new liberal RUSH to counter Rush??'
No doubt.
For one, the Times is not the left wing loonie rag. You're thinking of the Post. :)
While he is fairly liberal, I think his main stance is that he wants to change how the media reports the news. I think what people like about him is that the show manages to cut through the crap of politics, and expose a lot of the hypocrisy that goes on. Also, he does tend to take more shots at Bush and other Republicans, but that might be because they control Congress and the White House...
no, he is just a comedian who got involved with politics. if you've ever seen his show he skewers both sides, which is why he has a huge following among the college crowd especially. He skewers the bush side more than the other, but both get their share.
NO, sadly for the dems, Stewart is too honest to buy liberal kool aid, and too smart to allow dogma trump reality. I'm not saying he's one of us (yet), but he's moving in our direction.
