I just think Stewart and his writers need to reality check themselves a little more often. If JS is going to take such a moralistic, judgmental position, he cannot simply dismiss what he's doing as comedy, snake oil sales, or entertainment. He's coming dangerously close to Rushoid demagoguery and his immunizing comments smacks of trying to have things both ways and avoiding responsibility.
Hey, I love Jon ... I just really hate moralistic, judgmental demagogues. Of any persuasion.
