Hooray for fake liberals and phony journalism!
Hooray for illusionary freedom of the press and fake political rallies!
Jon Stewart defends George W. Bush on MSNBC
"Stewart said Bush "is not a war criminal," and said he believed the former president's assertions about Saddam Hussein's chemical and biological weapons programs prior to the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq were what Bush "truly believed" at the time.
"In contrast, host Rachel Maddow has in the past suggested that the Bush administration knowingly misled the American public about the imminent threat from Hussein's weapons program. She has also argued on air that U.S. actions during the Iraq war violated the Geneva Conventions, making the Commander-In-Chief, technically, a war criminal.

Jon Stewart behaves exactly like lamestream media pro-war hacks, and its not accidental.No war criminal in the WH, and he agreed yesterday with Sarah Palin, right wing hatespeech is not to blame for AZ shooting, just a "lone nut."Stewart has his lamestream media talking points all in order as he performs his role as $6 million dollar man for Uncle Sam.
Why the hell does he always kiss up to the NeoCons like Condi Rice?
Are politicians using the show for propaganda purposes?
He's sitting there, thinking like, "Yeah, I'll sit on the fence here, take my 6 million bucks a year, let the Oligarchs spew their disinfo and pro-war dogma pushing their crappy books like Oprah, while I sit and nod. But I'm too smart to vote and I'm above it all."
Stewarts brother is President of the New York Stock Exchange (he's got connections)
Stewart is making big bucks, reportedly 6 million a year and I think that colors his stance on the big issues, and he coddles govmnt leaders.
Julian Assange risked his life to get the truth about the wars to the American people and the world, but Stewart takes cheap shots at the guy?
SNL did cheap shots at Assange lately but Stewart said, “Transparency is a good thing, government wrongdoing should be ferreted out. Although, just because something is secret doesn’t necessarily mean it’s nefarious.” In sum, “an interesting yet less explosive and less than searing indictment.”
That's pure bullcrap and Stewart knows it.
Stewart went on, “The Pentagon Papers exposed blatant lies about how the government got us into the Vietnam War, how they continued to mislead us about the war’s progress, even the most cynical reading of these documents, I don’t think rises to that indictable level.”
Again, pure bull. Stewart is discounting blatant atrocities, lies and deceit by leaders and is just as relevant as Ellsberg.
