The Real Buffalo Joe Posted May 11, 2015 Posted May 11, 2015 i agree, but does it work the other way too? , do "liberals" ( you used the term "conservatives" ) say anything less than perfect? i would submit that "beauty is in the eyes of the beholder"? Have you ever heard Joe Biden talk?
dwight in philly Posted May 11, 2015 Posted May 11, 2015 Have you ever heard Joe Biden talk? lol!..OH YEA.. crazy joe!.. he is the gift that keeps on giving!..

You're missing the point I think, but yes, everyone says dumb schitt. It just seems like some of the crazier stuff comes from the right wingers and makes them easy targets for political satire. And, to use a current example, if you truly believe that god will "abandon" the U.S. if the Supreme Court allows gay marriage, then we probably shouldn't be having a conversation anyway.

I would say painting people who like Jon as liberals is stereotyping so should that be allowable? please create a thread in the PPP so people can post non politically here. "majority of those come from the right wing".. fact or opinion? unfortunately for you fact

3rdand12 Posted May 11, 2015 Posted May 11, 2015 You get my dim wit. that in and of itself is a concern : )
dwight in philly Posted May 11, 2015 Posted May 11, 2015 You get my dim wit. that in and of itself is a concern : ) it is refreshing.. for sure on this.

Spiderweb Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 Retiring. Last show is August 6th.i know, but why will he be missed? i would submit that is a matter of opinion, i really do not find him particularly funny. IMHO Oh it already did when Dwight in Philly, our resident blames-Obama-for-spilling-nacho-cheese-on-his-own-pants Republican, said he doesn't like Jon Stewart. Seriously, who doesn't like Jon Stewart? Saying a dude will be missed should not be a point of contention. And more important than politics, I think it's been agreed upon that calling someone a GOAT simply does not work as a complimentary acronym. well, i guess that is your opinion about whether this "has turned political".i just said i do not find jon stewart funny.. not sure where the "political" aspect comes from that. Jon Stewart is a well known for his political satirie and general humor.....don't even pretend this most obvious of facts escapes you. E
metzelaars_lives Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 People can say, "let's not stereotype" all they want but let me ask everyone this: If you heard tomorrow that a US congressman made some insanely archaic, deeply offensive, incredibly ignorant statement about women's innards and you had to bet your life if the guy was a Democrat or a Republican, which team would you bet he plays for?
3rdnlng Posted May 12, 2015 Posted May 12, 2015 that assumption is incorrect It has been stated correctly at least 3 times. a majority of the show is political satire. the side that goofs up the most gets mocked the most . Nice satire. Why is someone called "liberal" if they refuse to view or consider points of view that differ from their own? Ah, it has been stated here 3 times so it must be correct, eh? "The side that goofs up the most gets mocked the most"? Don't you mean that the side that is furthest from Stewart's point of view gets mocked the most? I would suggest that you or anyone else who is taking political shots here (including me) take the argument to PPP so that this thread can truly be about a sometimes funny comedian eviscerating Tom Bundchen.

If you heard tomorrow about a U.S. congressman making a statement that he was concerned that Guam might tip over if we stationed more troops there, what team do you think that congressman plays for? Who said that we must pass a bill to see what's in it? Who said that we must extend unemployment benefits in order to keep unemployment levels down? What two term president thinks that we have 57 states and that Hawaii is in Asia? Just in case you think I've blown my wad on those I'll advise you that I'm hardly titillated, there's more to come if you choose. Again, this discussion should probably go to PPP, where if you choose to call me an idiot the only points you'll get are if you actually make an intelligent point, and they won't be warning points. Let this post be an invitation to youins to take this argument to PPP and let Tommy get his due here. My subject line of the PPP post will be "Libs Who Can't Hack It Take Their Shots Elsewhere."

I take people at face value of what they actually say and do -- I hate the labels.
