Stewart Rips Maddow for Using Haitian Disaster to Bash Bush, Maddow Foolishly Strikes Back

I can’t say I’m particularly fond of Jon Stewart, find him too snarky, and his audience frankly too dumb to appreciate politics on anything resembling a deep level. There are times, however, when the man can surprise.

MSNBC commentator and all-around twat Rachel Maddow was rightfully mocked by Stewart for using the Haitian disaster as a pretext to continue bashing former President George W. Bush. Bush, unlike uber-creeps that haunt the radical left of the political spectrum, actually has a track record of humanitarian acts. He joins the current president and Bill Clinton in spearheading efforts in humanitarian aid to the region. Maddow made no apologies for her wretched and embarrassing statement. Very nice to see Jon Stewart tell the shill this isn’t the time for sickening partisan games.
