Jon Stewart on Mainstream Media's Obsession with Barack's Bad Bowling [VIDEO]
Got a tip for a post?:

You may already know that Barack Obama is a fundamentalist Muslim terrorist who's unable to answer a phone call at 3 in the morning because he's out snorting coke with his racist preacher, but did you also know that he sucks at bowling? It's true. Barack Obama absolutely sucks at bowling. One of the bad things about relying solely on your image to carry your campaign is that if that facade is damaged, you've got nothing else going for you.
Hillary Clinton was of course quick to exploit Barack's embarrassing bowling score because she's a classy fucking person. In fact, after seeing her make light of the situation, I bet you'll tilt your head to the side like I did and say "she seems fun".
As you can see, Mrs. Clinton had a field day with Obama's poor bowling skills. So much so that they ought to call this woman Hilarious Clinton. Get it? That's funny because it's a pun. Her name is Hillary Clinton, but I used a like-sounding word with a different meaning to suggest a quality about Hillary, in this case being that she's hilarious. That's why the joke is funny. But don't take my word for it, just look at how she flawlessly combines the delivery of Bob Newhart with the comedic genius of Jay Leno. People say Hillary isn't human enough, but she sure is hu-woman enough for me. Get it? Yet another comfortable affirmation of my jovial nature. Oh, I kill.
