As Jon Stewart said on The Daily Show Monday night, the only thing that could trump the revelation of bin Laden’s porn stash was the shocking news that the head of the International Monetary Fund, Dominique Strauss-Kahn, had been arrested for allegedly sexually assaulting a hotel maid in Manhattan.
“You know you’re in bad shape when your sex scandal comes out the same weekend as Osama bin Laden’s and you’re the one who looks like the real asshole,” Stewart said.
Even more incredible, Stewart said, were the circumstances of the alleged assault. According to reports, Strauss-Kahn allegedly chased the maid, who is an African immigrant, around his hotel room.
“That’s like a live action metaphor,” Stewart said. “The head of the IMF trying to fuck an African? “It’s like he’s posing for his own editorial cartoon.”
