Stewart explained it about as good as anyone could have last night.  BUT, if you feel Stewart is a devout partisan hack...then you wouldn't believe a word he said regardless.  I've said this before, but that is the problem in this country...people run from a truth...to a media outlet that will pat them on the head and soothe that worried mind, like a mom blowing on a cut after she's applied some hydrogen peroxide.  "There, there...that's not so bad now is it?  Mommy will make it allllllll better."

Why the fuck should the truth make you uncomfortable or put you at odds with your reality, when all you have to do is turn that channel, log onto that website, pick up that newspaper...that's more than happy to placate your worries?

There wasn't a single thing that Romney said that was edited out of context or omitted, nothing.  What you heard wasn't an inarticulate failed attempt that horribly mangled the actual meaning of his words.  What you heard wasn't a misfortune garbled thought process that went terribly astray from what was trying to be communicated.  If he meant he was only referring to the 3 to 7 percent that ACTUALLY game the system..he could have SAID 3 to 7 percent.  It's that freak'in simple.
