I don’t like giving Jon Stewart a platform; however, this uncharacteristic honesty is refreshing. “X”
Stewart Slams Obama Again: You Can’t Keep Saying You Found Out About News At The Same Time As Us!
By Clash Daily / 15 May 2013
The Daily Show with Jon Stewart
Jon Stewart tonight targeted President Obama for his reactions to major administration scandals in the past week and how every time there’s a big news item involving his administration, Obama always seems to have found out about the news at the same time as the rest of the public did. Stewart found it odd that Obama wouldn’t have found out about IRS targeting Tea Party groups or the Justice Department seizing journalists’ phone records from, say, people inside the government instead.
Stewart noted how at Obama’s big press conference on Monday, there was a “question limit of one, total, from the entire American press corps,” but a reporter smartly exploited a loophole by asking four questions in the same question. Obama began his answer explaining that he learned about IRS targeting in the same news reports that the rest of the public found out about from.
Stewart mocked the blasé manner in which Obama answered the question, and pointed out that this is not the first time Obama has claimed to find out news at the same time as the rest of us. Stewart highlighted how Obama said the same thing about the Fast & Furious ATF gun-running scandal and the time when a low-flying plane freaked out everyone in New York City. And Jay Carney admitted that’s the same way Obama found out about the Justice Department seizing AP phone records.
Stewart quipped, “I wouldn’t be surprised if President Obama learned Osama bin Laden had been killed when he saw himself announce it on television.”

Attn: Bachmann, other conservatives targeted by CREDO
Occasionally, I get e-mail from CREDO; (also from Schumer) to keep tabs on the left. I seldom am motivated to post these, but in view of the critical nature of the upcoming elections, I wanted to allow all – who are financially able- to back up conservative candidates. Michele Bachmann, among others, needs to be able to crush the opposition!
It’s official: Last week, political forecaster Charlie Cook moved Michele Bachmann’s race from Likely Republican to Lean Republican.
That means Bachmann is vulnerable. And she is not alone.
Every one of our races is competitive going into these final weeks. Every one.
Chip in $5 to Take Down the Tea Party Ten and Michele Bachmann. [I unlinked these]
Since we began our aggressive grassroots campaign, seven of our 11 campaigns have been shifted in our direction by political forecasters. And it’s no wonder: Volunteers in our grassroots offices have already knocked on 44,674 doors. And made 570,415 phone calls.
But to win, we’ll need to drive these numbers through the roof. With your help, we’ll have the resources to have knocked 20,000 doors in each district.
We’re preparing for a grassroots surge in the final weeks by hiring more organizers, opening more offices, and making sure we have the funds to keep our volunteers plugged into the predictive dialer tool, which doubles our voter contact rate, but costs 12 cents a minute for each volunteer connected to the system.
This is what it will take to deliver big, shiny pink slips on November 6th to the likes of Bachmann, Steve King, Dan Lungren and Allen West.
Whether we can pull it off is up to you.
Chip in $5 to make sure we hold Tea Party extremists accountable on Nov. 6th.
Thank you for everything you are doing,
Becky Bond, Political Director
CREDO Action
