Jon Stewart Exposes The Lavish Lifestyle Of The American Public School Teacher (video)
With the Wisconsin union situation an ongoing, seemingly interminable mess, Jon Stewart took some time tonight during the opening of The Daily Show to analyze the protagonists of these protests: the teachers fighting for collective bargaining rights. Turns out many of them make a salary reaching all the way up to five figures! This, along with benefits, Stewart found to be “bordering on avarice.”

1. Ha I watched it tonight
I left my lavish teaching lifestyle a year ago in February. Couldn't bear the easy life anymore.

5. Left coaster here
I'm usually seeing clips online before it airs out here in the wilderness. If I upgraded my cable I guess I could watch it at 8pm.

6. That 'easy life.' The stress from it...
...is why I retired 5 years earlier than planned. If they only knew...

2. it's too bad the teabaggers
are too dimwitted to put two and two together, even if they saw this video they would just brush it off as an example of the "liberal media" otherwise their heads would explode.

3. Absolutely brilliant.
Stewart and his team are masters in smashing conservative bullshit talking points.
