Best Daily Show clip ever
John Stewart interviews Middle East correspondent Aasif Mandvi, who puts the words of our fake Secretary of State into perspective ("birth pangs"). I started out laughing, but soon I was just stunned, and by the end it wasn't funny anymore, just tragic and very sad. This is some amazing writing from the Daily Show writers.

5. That was truly an amazing clip.
I found it on youtube.com and sent the link to everyone I know.

That was funny, but deadly serious. "Some people just don't know how to act when opportunity knocks their house down."

6. Tragic/Comic...
Still, when I heard "You have to pound a few chicks peas to get huumous" I started laughing. It's amazing how dry humor can help one keep their sanity when the world is falling apart.
