In the wake of The Daily Show’s interview with President Obama last week, after which conservatives pounced on the president calling the death of four Americans in Libya “not optimal,” Jon Stewart took a look at Fox News’ steady development of “Baracktose intolerance.”
After airing one of the show’s classic Fox News reels, Stewart on Monday noticed other news networks couldn’t resist getting their hands on “not optimal-gate.”
“That’s the thing about Bullshit Mountain,” Stewart said. “You may not live on it. But whenever it rains, you get the mudslide.”
