Jon Stewart

I'm all for free speech, but I'm also for family values.  Expressing free speech that's controversial on subscription adult cable, at a private club, on subscription radio, basically anywhere that isn't readily available to the children of its target, for example, is fine with me.  Last I heard, Comedy Central was available to anyone who has a platform of cable channels.

Apparently Andrew Sullivan thinks this is a riot - the beginning of a "rich late-night comedy political season". I wish I thought so, too. I used to enjoy Stewart and Colbert, and did not think of Stewart as a partisan pig prior to now. Let's watch along with Sullivan, Stewart and "Samantha Bee" as they coin a new phrase in relation to the Palin as McCain's Vice Presidential nominee: Proud Vagina-American. I'd love to see what the Obama campaign's reaction would have been to Comedy Central referring to him as a Proud Penile-American.
