The reason why there are no right wing comedians is because comedy requires an element of truth.
The reason that you're a leftist is that you're mentally retarded.

Well that was pretty stupid.
No, I & many other liberals like me who like Jon Stewart don't think we are well informed "
because we listen to Jon Stewart" -- Some of us happen to be high consumers of news, information and history - all forms of it, left, right & center, and follow politics intently.
We don't just get our news from the propaganda outlet knows as Fox and Murdoch & Co. - as many on the right seem to be proud
...as if saying "
I only watch Fox" is a badge of purity.
We find Stewart funny because, as a comedian, he refines the topic to it's bare edge bones, and with witticism, satire and humor, draws out the raw meat that cuts with precision and much deeper than any singular editorial, or slanted or otherwise news story - which we already know about - that's why it's so funny.

It is surely not accidental that there are a thousand novelists, essayists, poets or journalists for each humorist. It is a long, long time between James Thurbers. ~Leo Rosten [/FONT]
