Stewart sucks. It takes a miracle for me to laugh at his schtick...but it's happened once or twice. What can I say? I live in a miraculous world

Stewart is one of very few TV personalities I enjoy. This coming from a guy who despises SNL

You can dislike Stewart, but hard to say he sucks.
He's intelligent with an incredibly quick wit. I don't watch his show, but know his material well enough to know he doesn't suck.

I find him funny more often than not. And he manages to call out the absurd, ridiculous and unsupportable positions in a way few can. JMHO.

Yeah, the part about being afraid to shower because the gay guy would want him had me rolling!

Ahh, politics is why you feel the way you do.

To be fair, although Stewart does a lot on his own and a lot of his best and funniest stuff is clearly off the cuff and him reacting to the moment, the Daily Show does definitely have a large team of comedy writers behind the scenes who prepare the scripted jokes/material. I got the chance to take a stand up comedy class from one such person who now resides down here in TX and it was a ton of fun.

I think that's kind of understood.. all shows have writers.

Actually, I prefer Miller's comedic style far more than Stewart's style.

Miller is definitely a good comedian.
Preferring him to Stewart is more than fine, but I still think politics influences your opinion.

I tried watching and the audio was all distorted? Any idea what I can do to fix that? lol

Probably no more than politics influence your opinion.

Damn, I edited after you quoted.
It really doesn't for me, I'm not a democrat.
I admire his ability to deliver quick wit.
I like that he was an athlete.
I realize he can't cross the line too much and remain on tv, but I admire how he challenges both parties and the whole corporate/government machine.

Dennis Miller pretty much does the same thing, except he is (IMO) far more intelligent and quick witted than pretty much anyone out there.
