I <3 John Stewart

Here's video of John Stewart calling out the Dick Cheney biographer, and it's absolutely wonderful.

Stewart says precisely what I feel in a way that I never could. Anyone who has questioned the war in Iraq has been belittled by the administration and those in support of it, suggesting we're all just ignorant children who don't get it, and furthermore are unpatriotic traitors for not rubber stamping it and going about our lives.

He has also made a lot of points at various times about how all of the fear-mongering propaganda has only made it worse, and I totally agree with that as well. It has all been a convenient distraction from our more serious problems. Americans kill each other at a far greater rate to this day than any terrorist has. Our schools are underfunded and ineffective. We're trashing our environment. We're not innovative in energy production.

It's funny how the movie Man of The Year seems like a realistic proposition.
