Horgad, True, but nobody has ever called the lunatic fringe of the GOP reasonable.

Obama's appearance on "The Daily Show" was not very funny. He repeated some jokes he'd already told in other speeches. And, mostly, it was serious and boring politics. One good piece. John Stewart: "There is something called The Bradley Effect, where whites tell pollsters they would vote for a black man, but then vote against him in the privacy of the voting booth. Have you heard of that, Senator?" "Yes." "Aren't you afraid that the half of you that is white will not allow you to vote for yourself?" "Yes, that's a real problem." Obama then jerks his hand and forces it down with his other hand. "Sometimes I just can't control this thing."
