Jon Stewart last night focused his attention on the White House’s compromise to extend the Bush-era tax cuts, declaring the winner … “lower taxes and more spending!”

“Wait, that wasn’t an option,” Stewart said. “That’d be like, ‘Hey, you know how we’ll all get in shape after New Years? Laziness and bacon.’ “
