Jon Stewart Furious Over Fox News and Mitt Romney’s 47% Remarks

As reported earlier, Mitt Romney‘s campaign got jeers and some conservative cheers when he was caught by a secret camera telling donors that half the country will vote for Obama because they are “dependent on government. But as usual, Jon Stewart and The Daily Show get the last word.

In a nearly 10-minute segment entitled “Chaos on Bulls***t Mountain”, Stewart veers from humorously calling out Fox News’ hypocrisy in reporting the video, to caustically eviscerating the Republican candidate for his attitudes.

Stewart also addresses the heavily-edited video clip of Barack Obama from 1998 that surfaced this week, where the young state senator says he supports some “redistribution”- pointing out that Fox News was eager to say that Romney’s video came “all the way” from May.

By the end, the late night host is spouting a stunning array of facts about corporate welfare and tax breaks for the rich, tying it all to the “millionaire moocher” class’ “poster boy”: Mitt Romney.

(I wouldn’t call it comedy by that point, but it sure was truth.)

What do you think of TDS’ latest viral video?
