Jon Stewart on Tuesday set his sights on Republicans’ calls for Americans to “take this country back.” And what do you know? It’s happening now in anti-Wall Street protests in lower Manhattan and elsewhere.
So an epic Daily Show mash-up of sound bites from House Majority Leader Eric Cantor and others once calling for a popular uprising contrasted nicely with new cries of “class warfare” at President Obama and Occupy Wall Street protesters.
“Are there any other groups it’s actually OK to pit americans against?” Stewart asked Like, say, labor unions, community organizers, activist judges, global warming activists and “gay folks who are living together.”
“It must be tough for Republicans to love America so much, but hate three-quarters of the people living in it,” Stewart said.
