One of the best things The Daily Show has ever done.



I never agreed with John McCain, but I never was genuinely frightened of him or thought he was as stupid as George Bush until he picked this stupid, stupid woman. You can't have it both ways, Sarah! You can't whore your kids out to prove what a good member of the Family Values Movement you are, then shriek "it's a family matter! stay out of it!!!!" when it turns out your unwed teenage daughter - who you, by your own voting record, would deny health care to - is pregnant (Barack Obama's far classier than I could ever be). You can't claim to be John McCain's "pitbull with lipstick," then cry sexism whenever anyone genuinely asks about your qualifications or background, as you clearly weren't vetted properly, and severely hurt McCain's two biggest attacks against Obama - that he's inexperienced, and that he's "just a celebrity." Of course, this section of The Daily Show isn't really about Sarah Palin, but more like the utter hypocrisy of the right, but I had to rant about that.

I can't be excited about this year's elections until they're over and hopefully hopefully hopefully Obama's in the White House. Please, God, please.
