You do know if you don't like it you are free to start your own conservative site that does nothing but push conservative agendas. Think of CD as your training site, now go out there and blog your little conservative heart out my free bird.
I think we all need to come together and have a common sense discussion about real work compromises concerning the 1st amendment. These are things we should all be able to agree to right?

What people seem to miss about The Daily Show is that it's pretty boring and pointless if you don't follow politics. This is of course why the Daily Show viewers tend to score pretty high when quizzed on factual knowledge - it self-selects an for an audience that follows politics. In other words, it isn't particularly informative - but it's roundly entertaining if you're fairly well informed already.
