Subject: Hillary and Jon Stewart
Hey Bart,
My friends and I are your average college students
in that we watch The Daily Show
on a somewhat regular basis. However, we're
unlike your average college students in
that we are the few who fully support Clinton
and her campaign (Obama is God here.)
I remember reading in one of your issues a while
back that you thought Jon Stewart just
wasn't funny anymore. At the time, I didn't
really agree with you (its hard to get over those
school girl crushes) but watching his show last
night changed my mind. I'll spare you a long
summary, but basically Hillary Clinton owes her
win to ignorant, racist hicks who know nothing
about the glory that is Obama. Furthermore,
he pointed out that she has the audacity to ask for
their financial support and has the nerve to
take all the money from the poor white people.
Needless to say, the crowd loved it. We
had to change the channel.
So this got me thinking, maybe Hill is just going
about this all wrong, pandering to the wrong crowd?
What do you think? Maybe Jon would like her better
if instead of asking for support for the poor
white people, she told them all that they cling
in fear to their guns and religion instead.
That stuff seems right up his ally.
Now I never thought I'd see the day where I was
no longer attracted to Jon Stewart, I'm a sucker
for funny men after all. But to me and
my friends, this just isn't funny. As this race carries on I've
been asking myself if maybe I'm missing something.
So many people LOVE Obama, so many
people think that Hillary should just give up.
Even Stewart's on the bandwagon. I think I remember
reading that even you were wondering the same
thing. But you know, after watching that, I don't think
something is wrong with us, and I want to thank
you for providing one of the few sources of sanity
and fairness, especially when it comes to Clinton,
during this race.
Yes, it looks like Obama will get the nomination,
but trashing Hillary along the way isn't going
to win us this election. You're right Bart,
Stewart's not funny anymore and Obama needs us.
Thanks again,
Sally M
