Jon Stewart Blasts Democrats for 'Failing to Get Anything'

what a damning indictment of the media at large that a guy who pretends to be a journalist gets it - that the Dems biggest problem is the inability to get out of their own way, that with their Congressional majorities, Dems can shoot down anything Repubs put forth.

How is it that Jon Stewart can see it, but the network alphabet soup, the major daily newspapers, and certain cable outlets cannot?

The Dems aren't comedians who can lie like Jon and get a laugh. They know if they put a public option in their insane health care plan, that no one wants except poor lefties who don't pay taxes for it anyway, they will be voted out of office and sent to the hinterlands where they came from after they tried this Socialist nonsense the last time.

They need to lie better than Jon so people don't laugh at them and actually believe their lies - and they know it.

I think that "failed to get anything", applies to John Dubya Wayne's war in Iraq. We're still paying trillions and losing thousands of young American soldiers, but like Afghanistan, those cities we "free" are falling to the Taliban the day after we leave. Dubya lied about WMD and the Afghan's/Iraqui's still prefer the feudal warlord system of government, a system that's been in effect for thousands of years. So, what's the point?

The government has petroleum reserves that can be made available to the public to control the cost of gasoline. Now, why is it that some people think the government cannot get in the health care system through public option to help control health care costs for the working poor.

bearclaw2304 - Do you really want to be bring the Iraq War into this? I guess you do so here is the facts, in case you forgot. GWB and his administration presented trumped up intel (Saddam has WMD's; Saddam is connected to Al-Queda) to congress. In the wake of 9/11 and to not be branded as a traitor, which was going on at the time, several Dem Congressmen voted to go to war.

So lets look at the breakdown of Dems v Reps V Inds
House of Representatives

For: Reps-215; Dems-82; Inds-0

Against: Reps-6; Dems-126; Inds-1

No Vote: Reps-2; Dems-1; Inds-0

Senate

For: Reps-48; Dems-29; Inds-0

Against: Reps-1; Dems-21; Inds-1

No Vote: Reps-0; Dems-0; Inds-0

So based on the evidence, majority of the elected Democrats did not vote for the Iraq War. Majority of the Republicans did.

No lets debunk the "Surge". What the Bush administration failed to tell you is that the "Surge" didn't work on it's own merit. First lets talk about what happens in a "Surge". When you flood an area with troops, the "bad guys" will move and operate in a less congested area. That is called "Displacement Theory" and it is a common theme in Police activity. Add more cops to the streets, the criminals will look other places to operate.

Now lets discuss what accompanied the "Surge". The increase US troops was designed to hid the real "Surge". The Bush administration started to pay the insurgents not to fight.http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/article2413200.ece

So the claim that the "Surge" work is yet another lie from the Bush administration. The reason that these people were insurgents in the first place is because their way of life was destroyed. We destroyed the infrastructure of Iraq, and we disbanded the Army and police force, which many were employed by.

This people were fighting for scraps in their own country. Now that we are paying them 10 dollars a day they stopped attacking us.

Need to face the fact, Democrats for the most part have been bought and paid for by the Health Care Industry, how else can they have a majority in both houses and still not able to accomplish squat. They don't want a Public Option any more than the Health Care Industry does, that is if they want the $'s for re-election. One Big Joke! When it all washes out, Washington will mandate that everyone buy health insurance, and guess who automaticly has somewhere around 30-40 million new customers? So far not one meat head in Washington has the represented the people who can't afford a lobbist, "THE POOR AND NEEDIEST OF ALL."

Way to go Jon! You are so right about the demigods and the rest of the bumbling members of congress. Now if you could just help get them to fix ERISA which ripps off disabled americans by allowing insurance companies to deny long term disability policies after 1-2 yrs coverage, and they are helpless to fight the denial due to all the loop holes in the law.

Jon go to "youtube" see the video's by "disabledvictim" see the problems and then if you have the balls do a story about it.
