Too bad, at least he pays attention to what is going on in the world...

"Nothing says 'I am ashamed of you my government' more than 'Stewart/Colbert '08,' Stewart told an audience Sunday at the New Yorker Festival.
Indeed.

He's probably holding out until 2012, when he can share a ticket with Senator Franken.

Or, he's letting Robin Williams do the next best thing...........in a movie:
Man of the Year

That Robin Williams movie is fucking hilarious.

I really want to see it. Too bad Stewart isn't running. A shitload of people would probably vote for him...

Jonathan Leibowitz hahaha you must be joking. He's lucky to have a job that allows him to sell his crappy jokes to <200k a night. Go ahead Mr Leibowitz run, I'd love the outing you'd get.

Comedy Central Dispersing 'Crowd'
Tuesday, September 28, 2004
09:17 AM PT
Colin Quinn and his "Tough Crowd" may be ushered off the premises at Comedy Central.
The late-night show, which features a group of comedians working punchlines into a discussion of current events, is scheduled to go on a hiatus in November. That's no big deal, but it also looks like production of the show may shut down then as well.
"The future of the show will be determined at that time," a network spokesman tells The Hollywood Reporter. Other sources, however, tell the paper that "Tough Crowd" is probably on its last legs.
Lackluster ratings are largely to blame. "Tough Crowd" holds onto only about half of the audience from its lead-in, "The Daily Show." The network has struggled in recent years to find a lead-out series that can retain most of "The Daily Show's" viewers, in a timeslot opposite the network late-night shows.
"Tough Crowd" premiered in December 2002.

Hardy, don't bother with hwacker, he's a right-winger, so naturally, Jon Stewart scares him because he makes him see faults(of which there are many) in the G.O.P, which hwacker no doubt thinks is second to God.
Hardy @ Mon Oct 09, 2006 10:25 pm
Hwacker is right-wing? 
I just like to do a little fact checking from time to time. Helps keep people honest.

Did you fact check why he's using the name Stewart instead of Leibowitz, comedians don't change their names actors do.
Nice act. Funny, not so much.
