The woman is Ann Coulter, who made her entire career saying horrible things like that.
She is not a politician, a journalist, or an employee of Fox News. She is a troll. And I mean that in the professional sense. Ann Coulter's occupation is troll. Feel free to look her up, but naught but frustration awaits you.
I still have a ton to catch up on but that segment from Wednesday (FOX jettisoning the Bill of Righs one amendment at a time... except, you know, one which is absolute) was outstanding.
That's kind of funny [on a non-gun related note] relative to the Australian Constitution which has only been modified 8 times since its creation since it requires requires a double majority referendum [majority of population + majority of states].
My name is Hawkian, and I endorse the shit out of this message.
Catching up now, I just got this tidbit:
Damn.

Haven't watched tonight's episode yet, but did they reference this at all?

The VA piece by Sam Bee and all the other correspondents is awesome. It's a true shame how American troops are being left by the wayside by the VA. This is a pretty rad piece though. Lol @ the NVG gear and infiltrating the VA.
A while ago i worked on a bunch of housing for veterans, nice apartments in townhouses. After it was finished they never got funding to move any vets in, they been vacant for 2 years now.

i've been begging for over 5 years.
I really didn't think the piece itself was that great. Good on the Daily show for highlighting this massive failure though. Such a shame.
Oh and Colbert's interview with Ben Kingsley was awkward as fuck. I really dislike the way Colbert 'interviews' people. Usually I turn it off after the 2nd segment to spare myself the agony but I like Kingsley.
Brilliant.

There is the possibility for a logical fallacy upon irrelevant grounds, but only if the daily show was presenting an argument for the implementation of the exact same legislation in the US as the australian parliament. You are both correct, sort of.
I think his point is that the piece has the potential to be pretty misleading to the reactionary anti-gun crowd who will probably just continue to masturbate to their own cause instead of thinking through the issue, which is often the case with daily show segments.

Amazing NRA convention segment last night. Completely ripped them apart.
Bunch of psychotics, those people.
Bunch of psychotics, those people.
Sometimes I wonder if those Fox News folks are secretly paid by other organizations to say stupid shit in order to provide Stewart, Colbert, and others material for jokes.
Those quotes by Beck, Palin, and others were beyond stupid. They set a new low. And you know it's not so much about them believing that crap as it is selling it to people who do.
They're televangelists. Plain and simple.

Colbert's "Better Know a District" tonight was amazing. The whole ending bit with Colbert as the crazy, racist old woman had me rolling.
Great pair of shows tonight.

It's probably not healthy for debate to reduce people who are honestly trying to help prevent deaths to "masturbators," even if you disagree with them.
Do we have an OT for Colbert? I searched and didn't really see one.
Unbelievable stuff. I thought the R in NRA stood for Rifle not Republican, it must suck to be a Liberal gun owner in the NRA and have to sit through all that shit.
It was almost like a parody of an NRA convention, each speaker coming out and saying something even dumber and more contradictory than the last.
We try to make one every now and then, but we just end up going back here. It's easier to discuss both shows in one thread than to separate them.

Should we change the title to include both TDS and CR?

His sister lost the election right?

Was it even close?
9% or so. The district is normally +11 R, the only reason it was ever a race was because it was her and her opponent was the ousted governor.

This bit on CNN's coverage of that murder trial is amazing.
An episode mocking both Fox News AND CNN? Glorious!
Here's the article Jon was citing during the Grace & Banfield story. http://www.theatlanticwire.com/national/2013/05/nancy-grace-ashleigh-banfield-cnn-parking-lot/64965/

And just a day or two after having Amanpour? I haven't see the episode yet but I'm curious to see what Stewart said.
Ripped em a new butt hole.
I'm a bit surprised as usually Stewart just cherrypicks Fox News clips and bases his entire shows on those. Not saying FN doesn't deserve the criticisms but Stewart is way too reliant on them for his material.
Really? The guy mocks CNN almost daily.
He finds Fox funny. He fucking loathes CNN with all his heart.
It's more disappointment when it comes to CNN. They should be so much better than they are and yet...

About the CNN bit, I thought it was fairly obvious that the woman on the right was standing in front of a green screen or something. She looked so out of place, her hair especially, she clearly wasn't there in the car park. I have no idea way they were trying to make it look like she was, though.
Just odd.

Doesn't Jon also make fun of MSNBC? Not nearly as much because they're not quite the joke that Fox is.

He makes fun of stupidity.
The entire 24 hour news cycle and its adherents constantly fall victim to stupidity.
My life would be empty and purposeless without the all-knowing Wolf Blitzer reading tweets from random celebrities in his action room.
They did poke fun at themselves for doing the same thing.
The difference is that CNN is supposed to be professional, they're a bunch of comedians.
There is still time.
