Jon Stewart: “Broken Bad”

Jon Stewart looks at how the Senate deals with guns and crime.

Well, thank God for Chris Hayes, because I’m not good at math. I’m so stupid. I still think 54 votes is more than 46, because I’m a f**king idiot. But I’m pretty sure that a million is more than 3,400, and yet, to battle the evil of terror, we started two wars, tortured people, reorganized almost the entire federal government, disallowed the air trafficking of shampoo and conditioner and okay’d the robot sky killing of American citizens, if warranted by… someone.

Because one American life lost to terror is one too many, which I agree with. But it seems to me we’ll move heaven and earth to do whatever it takes to prevent weapons from falling into the hands of foreigners who might kill our citizens, because apparently we think killing our citizens, is our job.

Rolling In The Schadenfreude

Josh Marshall at TPM has a handy guide of all those folks who got their long-due comeuppance  and those who won against the efforts of the Orcosphere in the election.  From Karl Rove to Donald Trump and gay rights to bong hits, there’s plenty of schadenfreude to share with your coffee.

For me, the best was the flaming explosion of Karl Rove’s head on live TV when Fox News announced that Obama had won the election.

In an epic on-air tantrum, he refused to acknowledge Obama had won, sending anchor Megyn Kelly walking off-set to ask the network’s vote analysts to explain for him why tipping point Ohio was lost to Romney. Democrats will be replaying this clip for years to cheer them up in their darker moments.

Now he has to explain to the billionaires why their unprecedented spending earned them — nothing. For all the money spent, there’s still a Democratic president and, almost as unbelievably, a net gain in the Senate.

Heh.  The best part is that if you enjoy this sort of thing, none of these people are going to go away.  It is completely against their nature to retreat quietly once they’ve had their ass handed to them because they never, ever learn.  So count on them being around for a long time.

Bonus: Go watch Jon Stewart assess the election.
