It's just kind of "Oooh, Republicans, burn" kind of humor. Perhaps if Obama wins, I will find new enjoyment, who knows?

(It's not like I'm Rush, Fox, O'Reilly-ing it up either.)

ETA: Only because you threw out Fair and Balanced, do you really imagine that a comparable clip couldn't be put together with Democrats, maybe on the topic of the value of experience or women in positions of authority?
I didn't say you have to watch the Daily Show, but if you're going to weigh in on every single post that comes across, maybe you'd make some effort to expose yourself to more opinions, influences, sources. Yes, I think that link exposes some critical HYPOCRISY (which you and the KSigs have made big points about this evening) on the GOP side which might explain why many of us who are not pro-Palin have good reason to pshaw at all the spin and grin coming from the McCain camp. Saying you "just can't bring yourself" to watch it is dismissively rigid. Maybe you'd actually learn something if not from then maybe about another point of view? The fact that you think it's all "ooh, Republicans, burn" humor speaks to your lack of familiarity and understanding.
