"The Daily Show" took a few shots at the Obama campaign during last night's episode. Jon joked about Obama's seal blunder and his reversal on public financing.

"Barack Obama has changed the motto of the Presidential seal from E Pluribus Unum, from many to one, to Vero Possumus, which rougly means yes we can. How do you say 'but you shouldn't' in Latin?"

Big public ... that's funny. Stewart had to point out it's OK to laugh at Senator Obama. You can read that sentence again if you like. Is de-sanctification a word?

Updated: more video after the jump. HUMMER COPTER!

"Obama's turnaround looks bad now, but the voters will forgive him once they take a ride in his brand new Hummer-Copter! It runs on hope ... and a lot of gas ... which costs a lot of money ... that he now has!"

Our New Approach to Comments

In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around. Please read our Help and Feedback section for more info.
