] "What they saw were clear pictures of these young kids

An interesting historical perspective on the shit thats about to go down in New York. Swift Boat Veterans have already cost Kerry his lead (which is somewhat amazing to me, but people are stupid). No one is going to agree with the marxists who isn't already voting for Kerry. But plenty might disagree, which may put Bush over the top.

The marxists cost the democrats the election in 2000 by voting for Nader, and they may cost the democrats the election in 2004 by throwing a scene in the streets.

] Earlier, before being clawed by Kerry's reps, we spoke to
] "Daily Show" executive producer Ben Karlin, a charming
] man who did not take offense at our questions and who
] promised that the Comedy Central program would try
] especially hard to resemble an actual TV news show

] "All of us [on 'The Daily Show'] are just blown away by
] the turn the campaign has taken," Karlin said. "We cannot
] believe that this is what is being talked about at this

] conversation absent of incredulity, because [the
] interview] is not going to go anywhere if you just say,
] 'What the [expletive] is going on?' "
]
] "If you just want to pinpoint the success of the
] Republican Party and Bush, this is a perfect case study,"
] Karlin continued, "because George W. Bush has put a
] moratorium on talk about his behavior under the age of 40
] and everyone [in the press] is abiding by it. 'Were you
] or were you not an alcoholic or did you just have a
] drinking problem?,' 'Were you or were you not a drug
] abuser?' Meanwhile they're debating whether [Kerry's war]
] wounds drew blood or were they superficial, or occurred
] in the same day, or whether he shot a guy wearing a toga.
] . . . How is that possible?"

This whole thing is so stupid its sickening, and its nice to see the Daily Show weigh in on it. (Bold is mine)
