Jon Stewart on Goldman Sachs's Fraud Charges

You know, it's one thing for Goldman Sachs to have the balls to defraud investors and still hand out billions in bonuses, but it's almost like a bad joke that along with those balls their name is basically Gold Man-Sacks. Though, we can take some solace in the fact that they got rid of their original name, Iron-Scrot Asteroidnuts and Sons.

Anywho, here's what Jon Stewart had to say about the debacle on last night's Daily Show:

Jon Stewart on Jim Bunning and Rick Sanchez

Jim Bunning's been in the news quite a bit for screwing over more than a million unemployed Americans, but let's not forget that he was also one of the greatest pitchers in MLB history. He was a six-time All-Star who threw a perfect game. In fact, it's been said that he was almost as good at baseball as he is at being a cantankerous, elderly Lex Luthor.

Of course, the villains in Congress aren't the only thing wrong with America. After the jump, Jon reports on CNN's Rick Sanchez, who is to journalism what pants-pooping is to pants.

The Daily Show airs Monday through Thursday at 11pm / 10c.

CNN's Rick Sanchez Channels Jon Stewart

Last night, The Daily Show did a great and lengthy segment on the media's coverage of Arlen Specter's party switcheroo. There are plenty of gems in this clip. At 3:30, you've got Jon's line about blacks and Jews in Kansas. Then, at 4:05, there's the bit about Michael Steele's political Yo Mama jokes. But the piéce de résistance comes at 5:45.

So, there you have it. On April 29, 2009, after more than a decade as host of The Daily Show, Jon Stewart's influence has finally seeped through the mile-thick barrier of obtuseness that surrounds cable news.

Got any good Michael Steele-esque Yo Mama jokes? Drop them in the comments. Here's mine:

Yo mama's so dumb, she thinks WMD is the channel that Gilmore Girls was on!

Ugh. You can do better than that.

The Daily Show airs Monday through Thursday at 11pm / 10c.
