For humor to work there needs to be an underlying truth.

Dave,

You are still the 'court-jester' of this news group in an
odd bizarre whacked-out drug-addled sort of way.

You DON"T get it. The issue is not whether satire is a valid form
of presentation, the issue is whether a satirist is a credible source of
news.

To get back to your original assertion, Jon Stewart is a
satirist. Not a reporter. He deals in perspective. He presents HIS
perspective. He doesn't report facts.

A clown may base his act on facts. But he is not a factual source.

Communication of a concept is effected nonetheless.

Having never served in wartime - I have very little experience or
knowledge of POWs. However, I'm thinking if you survived that kind of
ordeal - you pretty much deserve hero status.

Roseanne Hale, in Lima,Ohio, she and I used to email chat politics crap
when she got off of work at two thirty night times.Then she emailed me
and said I am abominable.
I love you, Rosie.
