Was watching the Daily Show on commedy central and one of their topics was on the svt and their ad. While I know the show is telling fake news im sure they somewhat research what they are talking about.

Now they completley butchered what the vets are all about and made me cringe. If i didnt read the entirity of this site to know exactly what happened, I would of had to think the swifts were a bunch of republicans willing to do anything to not have kerry elected. But I was just shocked that the daily show butchered the ad and made the vets seem like idiots(which you arent). So....

Daily Show- Funny fake news program?
Daily Show- Funded by democrats/ Run by democrats?

The Daily Show- satire run to make a buck.

note on the front page:
John Kerry: The least objectionable alternative to George W. Bush the Democrats could come up with.

Nuanced political answers at a time like this? Mr. Kerry, are you TRYING to lose?

and it's not just young people that have a sense of humor. old people do too (except for my dad)
