Default Jon Stewart The Daily Show

Check out The Daily Show with Jon Stewart - Political Comedy - Fake News | Comedy Central Jon Stewart show. Get through the ads and then watch the first ten minutes of yesterday Jan 31st show, there is a segment he does on Romney in The Villages. My son told me about it so I just watched it.

"Death adjacent"???? "Will everyone in the crowd at The Villages press their life alert button at the same time"???? That ain't funny!

Must have missed the Romney part! I got so board with the video that I nearly fell asleep before the first (or is it the second) commercial.

He made fun of Gingrich, he made fun of Romney, he made fun of Pres. Obama, and he made fun of us. That's his job.

Sorry, but I thought it was hilarious. Maybe I have a demented sense of humor, but I believe that if we can't laught at ourselves, we can't laugh at anyone else. He's a comedian and he made me laugh, so he earned his paycheck.

Perhaps you aren't aware that The Daily Show airs on "Comedy Central". Find the humor in it.

I thought it was funny too. All of it. I love political satire no matter what party it is. And TV is funny because it is so unique, we are ripe for comedians. I even laugh when I tell people about it because it is so special no one believes me who has not been there. And it was true about the parking....

I WAS aware it was Comedy Central.

It may be a gender difference in what we think is funny.

I don't like for anybody not to see that Seniors are the same as anybody else...only smarter.

How many years you got left, bub???

Death adjacent, my fanny!

The funny thing is, we are all "death adjacent," no matter what our age. Death follows life, there is no getting around it.
