Jon Stewart last night lampooned the Republicans’ ongoing call to have an “adult conversation” about taxes and government spending, questioning just how mature that conversation would be.

“So, I see, by adult conversation, you mean the kind of conversation where the adult says, ‘No, because I said so,’ ” Stewart said.

So if Republicans are the “adults,” what does that make Democrats? The stepparents, Stewart said, who “will do anything to keep the peace and anything to get you to just love them.”
