Jon Stewart On Ted Stevens

I know this subject has been covered to death all over the Internet(s), but Ted Stevens' idiotic rant about the Internet being "a series of tubes" was brilliantly satirized by our good friends at The Daily Show; YouTube has the clip.

I'm looking forward to additional technical lectures by the Distinguished Senator from Alaska - next up: "cars are a series of muscles" and/or "cell phones are a series of tiny gnomes talking in your ear, as if by magic."

(Does it surprise anyone that this moron is a huge proponent of drilling in ANWR and a $200-million-dollar pork-barrel "bridge to nowhere"?)

Um, as horrifyingly enlightening as that was, does anyone besides me find it grotesque that out of every human in America, that buffoon is holding the third-in-line spot for the highest office in this country?

Here it is, from
http://stevens.senate.gov/protem.cfm :
"Senator Ted Stevens has served as President Pro Tempore (PPT) of the Senate since January 2003. He was nominated by Senator Trent Lott (R-MS) to serve as President Pro Tempore for the 108th Congress and was unanimously elected by his Republican colleagues on November 13, 2002.
Since 1947, the President Pro Tempore has been third in the line of presidential succession, behind the Vice President and the Speaker of the House."

So, if we get Bush and Cheney out, and Dennis (protecting marriage is a priority and we will continue to fight ) Hastert can't stand the strain from all those "non-elected, liberally motivated judges"- the best and brightest new leader of America will be...

Oh God. Please tell me these old men aren't really making policy and running things.

I'd welcome a conspiracy theory right now. An Evil Genius would be so much less shameful.
