Jon Stewart Defends .... Michelle Malkin, Scott Brown from Moron Olbermann

For a long time I've maintained that while Jon Stewart has the smartest writers on Comedy Central, Stephen Colbert has the funniest. I'm sorry, I just don't find The Daily Show that funny.

Stewart's wit would find better use as, say, a blogger. A kind of snarky sarcasm nearly always directed at the political opposition. Nearly.

In this big Stewart rails on Keith Olbermann for nearly seven minutes. A much deserved railing, in my estimation But the surprise comes near the end where after refuting the rather lame accusation made by Olbermann that Scott Brown supports violence against women, he uses Olby's attack against long-time friend of the Jawa Michelle Malkin as evidence that Olby -- if measured by his own standards -- supports violence against women.

Classic.

Hopefully we'll get a comment from Michelle later.

Thanks to Howie for the heads up and Ed for the embed.

Oops, apparently it's Jon not John. That shows you how much I've watched The Daily Show since Craig Kilborn left and it became 50% less funny.
