The word is that Jon Stewart is leaving The Daily Show because he mentally exhausted from dealing with the idiocy of republicans for the last sixteen years.
After 16 years of anything I doubt there is ever just one reason but, you can see the frustration in his face. Do you know any republicans? They get worse everyday. If you are anywhere near the internet or a TV, there's no escaping these idiots. If you are Jon Stewart and you've made a fortune making fun of these people, largely by running clips of things they actually say(!) you've hit the mother-lode of comedy gold and it continues to pay off. In power or out, these assholes are the gift that keeps on giving....
And therein lies the rub. It never ends. In fact, they get worse, seemingly by the second and there is no end in sight. Suddenly, you hit the wall and comedy gold is a source of sadness. You are still funny but they aren't. You look at the usual suspects queuing up for a presidential run and you think "Oh goody!" because they are nuggets and flakes of comedy gold.
But then the reality sets in. Millions of people are hoping one of these fucking morons becomes the leader of the free world. They actually believe one of them is THE choice but, as long as it's one of them, they'll be in hog heaven even if the guy didn't campaign on slave-labor FEMA camps for all liberals. At least they know he'll probably come around...
I feel Jon Stewart's frustration. My personal philosophy is: Fuck 'em if they can't take a joke and joke 'em if they can't take a fuck." You gotta laugh in life. At least try. Laugh to keep from crying maybe?
But, these people are very frustrating. They are grown men and women who refuse to think for themselves. Or, they are incapable. They are fucking stupid and willfully so. You can't help them. You can't explain things to them. When someone believes that absolutely everything is Obama's fault or that of liberals in general, after the jokes clear their heads, they are still stupid. "But, Obama...."
Yeah, Obama- the do-nothing worst president since Carter who is also a malevolent dictator....
It's one thing for the Karl Rove's and rival politicians to say these things. That's politics. They talk out of both sides of their mouths. My beef is the mucking forons who see no problem believing out of both sides of their brains, and regurgitating such thoughts over and over again. Who does that? These people make the Germans of the 1930's look politically cautious. Those folks looked askance as Hitler followed through with his not so secret plans for Jews and other non-Aryans. Our assholes wonder where the FEMA camps for liberals are and when the final solution will begin.
You can only laugh at people so seriously stupid for so long before you realize they are so seriously deranged and not going to get better. I wish there were a million of these people. There's like 40 million. One million wouldn't be so fucking pathetic.

Oh, it is going to be so horrible without him. I'll miss him.
They feed on the welfare queen stories...
Something or someone getting something for nothing. And the Republican's know this and use it.
As far as I'm concerned, big government is the Koch brothers pulling the strings. Or the Walmart /welfare heiress who spends millions on art for an Arkansas museum to be named after her. Follow the money...and discover that it doesn't lead to your pocket.
And ask yourself this, what do presidents do when they leave office? Is it 'play golf' or is it to continue working for humanity? Then ask yourself this, who really is the one who lived/lives a life with character. Between the two, who would you want as a friend...
Right
I liked it when on the following Monday's show he addressed the outpouring of love and sadness at his departure by asking: "Did I die?"
People were, are, and will be sad several months from now when he actually does leave. We've got time to prepare. I really wonder if they won't end the show since it could never be the same. But still- someone's got to continue to tune up the politicians on a daily basis. Well, 4 days a week....
