Lewis Black: Glenn Beck Has Nazi Tourette's
From The CC Insider…
On last night's Daily Show, Lewis Black devoted his entire Back in Black segment to Glenn Beck, juxtaposing a clip of the Fox host freaking out about people comparing Arizona to Nazi Germany with like a zillion clips of Beck comparing everything other than Arizona to Nazi Germany.

Part Two, in which our hero faces a string of public humiliations, is cast aside by his own party, looks for comfort in the arms of a man from the wrong side of the aisle, and ultimately returns home — beaten and broken — with a hardened heart.

The Daily Show's Best Mayor Bloomberg Moments
Tomorrow, a minuscule percentage of New York City residents the world over will leisurely make their way to polls if they have time after lunch to decide whether they almost certainly will or will not give that scrappy billionaire guy a third chance at keeping the city exactly as it is. Exciting!
While we're waiting for the papers to come out on Wednesday morning to see what happened in the election the day before, let's take a trip back down Memory Lane, where the flowers are always in Bloomberg…
