(AP) LOS ANGELES -- Jon Stewart and his writing staff are owners of new Emmy Awards.
Comedy Central's "The Daily Show" was named the best comedy or variety show in the
annual Emmy Awards. Blessed with an abundance of material during a presidential election,
the show beat out David Letterman's "Late Show," "Saturday Night Live," "Real Time With
Bill Maher" and "The Colbert (col-BEAR') Report (rap-PORE')".
Wow! I would be SO proud of this, if anyone watched the stupid thing. He is the most popular guy to a couple of losers that voted and nobody watching or caring. What an honor

The guy is a big lib and has been way too easy on Obama. However, unlike other hateful lib "comedians", like Letterman and Maher, John Stewart is pretty funny. I don't think anyone minds lampooning as long as it is entertaining.
