Jon Stewart Calls Fox News Personalities "Extremists" For Their Coverage Of Obama's Cairo Speech (VIDEO)

Jon Stewart committed a lengthy opening segment to President Obama's speech in the Middle East last night. He explored the expectations of our president at home and abroad, looked a the rhetoric he used both to further the tenuous relationship America has with even its closest allies in the region and the rhetoric he used to ensure that no one thought he was caving on protection for Israel, advancement for women and an end to terror.

Then he got to the funny part: Fox News' crazypants coverage of the same events. The conservative news network had talking heads and anchors alike on air saying Obama buys in to extremism, that he's disingenuous, that he threw the intel community under the bus. Stewart responded to them by saying, "What a torture it must be for such pretty people to see such ugly things."

1. I still love his diagnosis of America's political discussion of the middle east

It's the Moebius strip of modern politics.

2. I hope he does something on last night's Beck show. i

If there is anything resembling a two minute hate in this country it is that guy's show. I watched it for the first time last night and couldn't believe my eyes. i thought I was watching a soviet propaganda film, except it was targeted at Acorn.
