Jon Stewart mocks Glenn Beck
While The Daily Show's Jon Stewart is not known for his impressions, perhaps he's onto a new phase of his career.
Here, the cable news star (be honest, sometimes this comedy show is your primary news source) mocks Fox News commentator Glenn Beck by going on a Beckian rant about, who else, Glenn Beck.
Regardless of how you feel about Beck, it's an entertaining cartoonish take on the man:

Absolutely brilliant! He completely PEGS Beck and his wild, connect-the-dots conspiracy theories.

Stewart is a little twit. When he was a kid, he was probably the last one picked for sports.

And Glenn was picked first? Picked at all?

>>"When he was a kid, he was probably the last one picked for sports."
What an awesome barometer of someone's worth.

WOW!!!!
It's 1am an I'm sleepless...
the thought of a peacefull
American muslum, born in this country, pleading his word to the US Army going Jhad and shooting a hundred bullits into his fellow Americans... WOW!!!
If we are going to let the people of the muslum religion in our country say one thing... like trust me we are with you... and at a whim turn to Koran because things aren't going thier way and become a rabbid dog.
Well..
I think we need to rethink this war on terror and start at HOME FIRST!!!
Just got to shoot ol' yeller
for his own good...

I simply love John Stuward. This is where I get my news. I voted for Obama and everyone and junk because he really makes me see what's important in the news. I don't buy the paper or watch the regular news because it is so boring and confusing. Stuard puts the news in focus in a funny way that makes it clear to me to vote for Democrats.

Nice job Jim, real quality work there. In case you missed it, he kinda' ripped the Obama administration right there as well as Fox, as he regularly does. And 15 minutes of fame? He's had this show for over like, 10 years. I'm pretty sure that he's had/is going to have a bit more than 15 minutes.

I think Stewart did a great job of showing the superficial nature of Beck's arguments. Some people criticize Stewart, but the guy is just making people laugh. There's nothing wrong with that.

The Daily Show, Like Fox Snooze, is considered entertainment.

Beck is the hottest personality out there amongst the "grown ups". Regardless of your take, the proof is in the ratings. (you can't spin numbers) Stewart is doing the prudent thing here by using Beck to cause "controversy" to boost his ratings. That's Entertainment!
What is really frightening are the folks stating Stewart is where they get their news. Parents keep your kids in school!!

This goes to the guy who has said that he listen stewart because he put in context the benefits of voting for democrats. Man... don't be ridiculous, it is fairly easy to realize that you are an as*** conservative pretending to be a naive and poorly informed alienated boy... obviously you just try to make a point in order to create controversy towards mr stewart and his audience. What a pussy.

I loved this and laughed my butt off. I can always tell which of the comments originate for Faux "News" followers because they can't compose a sentence and logical thought.

Can anyone of you clowns spell for shit? Jesus Christ! Someone spelled "Stewart" as "Stuard."
Jim Hartman--It's hard to take your bigoted opinions seriously when you spell "and" as "an," in addition to mispelling "Muslim" repeatedly.
And your arguments are flawed on so many levels. Guess what race most serial killers are? White. Does that mean that the US should keep watch over every white male to prevent "terrorism" in the form of sociopaths killing people? Go to college, you fucktard.

Brilliant! Jon Stewart sees it and tells it "like it is". So much ridiculous paranoia on the part of the conspiracy theorists. At least some of us still have a sense of humor.

i laughed.
or are we not allowed to do that anymore?

the scary thing is that Glenn Beck delivers paranoid sensationalistic sermons in the guise of "news." his rhetoric is downright frightening, and anyone who doesn't see that needs to take a closer look.
