philgyford : YouTube - Daily Show - Federal Bail Out - I could link to the Daily Show every day but here Jon Stewart *really* gets going on Congress. If you only have two minutes to spare, skip to 2:30 for a very fine, and justified, rant. Can we clone him for the UK?

Jeremy Zawodny : Daily Show: What Exactly Is President Bush's Job? - Daily Show: What Exactly Is President Bush's Job?: I have no idea. Neither does the president.
plasticbag : The Daily Show explore exactly what George Bush's job is - God, it's really about time someone did that. The whole liberal media has been really slack in trying to work out what he's for. Poor old chap must be terribly confused. Do I sound snarky? Do I?! Sleep deprived more like. Grumble.
