Jon Stewart, Sean Hannity trade barbs

“Everything is presented in as devious a manner as it could possibly be presented.”

That pretty much describers Stewarts’ show doesn’t it?

[lonevoice]

What a perfect and snarky smack down. It makes me wonder if Hannity actually wrote it himself.

I heard him talking about Stewart’s comments on his radio show, I think it was yesterday. In more typical Hannity fashion, he whined that he’d never had a problem with Stewart before. He practically begged his co-hosts (the researchers, producer, call screeners who all share nearly equal time with Hannity on the radio now) to assuage his ego and affirm that he is really a nice guy.

Jon who?

[The_Media_never_lie]

Stewart is more smarmy than funny, from what I’ve read.

[drjimmy]

He’d better watch out for exploding kilns.

[Cecily]

“... that smarmy smile ....”

Do you mean that angry, clenched-jaw, underbite grimace that barely passes for a smile? Rosie O’Donnell has the same.

[Bogey78O]

I vaguely recall him saying something along the lines of how he had no problem with Stewart. He enjoyed the “Stay Hannity” bit.

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

"Jon's problem is he has his head so far up Obama's ass he cannot see clearly, he is obviously better suited to reading his joke writers material, and making his clapping seal audience happy,"

I can now respect Sean.

I’d still choose the most loathsome dude at Fox over the most cordial D-bag at MSNBC or the Daily Show.

Stewart has been very hard on Hannity...in part because Hannity provides him with all the ammunition Stewart needs.

[RckyRaCoCo]

Jon who?

The original Gruber.

[onyx]

I’ve never watched his stupid show.

"Everything is presented in as devious a manner as it could possibly be presented.”

Moderators, the headline is wrong. Please change Hannity to Gruber.

Thanks.

Jon Stewart is taking home between $25 and $30 million a year

Oh come on. Surely he isn't taking it home. He would be redistributing his wealth to others less fortunate right? I mean he's true to his beliefs isn't he?

[Fledermaus]

I can’t tell the difference between B’OR and Liebowitz.

[Fledermaus]

He has better comedy writers...the DNC and all elected Dems.

[Rummyfan]

"Jon's problem is he has his head so far up Obama's ass he cannot see clearly, he is obviously better suited to reading his joke writers material, and making his clapping seal audience happy," Hannity continued.

That's about the best thing I've ever heard Sean Hannity say.

[Christie at the beach]

Bill O Reilly and Jon Stewart could be each other’s shadow at times.

[Rodamala]

I heard Sean on the radio when I was driving home a few nights ago. The topic of Jon Stewart was raised and Sean was not bothered in the least and actually showed respect for Stewart’s comedy.
