Which Senator blasted The Daily Show on the floor today?

[AnnInLa]

Am trying to explain to a friend but can't remember which Senator actually referred to the Fake News Program? Anyway, it makes me LOL every time I think about it.

1. Pat Roberts nt

[DURHAM D]

2. Roberts - Kansas.

[Mythsaje]

3. Kansas--

the land that evolution forgot.

[DURHAM D]

18. Hey, take it easy - I am from Kansas.

Happily, I no longer live there. However, currently living in the south and it is not an improvement politically.

[Mythsaje]

19. No offense to Kansans meant...

just the ones who never evolved.

Ugh! Me no ape! Me Child of God! Ugh!

[grannylib]

4. OK clue me in ...I missed it. What happened??

[MissB]

8. See this thread:

And hopefully there is a link to the second thread somewhere at the end.

9. Blasted Wilson Cause He Appeared On A "Comedy Show"

Of course Putzhead Pat forgot that Colin Powell, Newt Gingrich, Bill Christol and many other Repugnicans have appeared on that "Comedy Show".

Stewart has more credibility in his fingernails than all of Faux News and CNNServative.

[Inland]

12. RNC chair Mehlman was on.....

[wurzel]

16. The Repuke run Senate is a comedy show. But no one is laughing.

[devilgrrl]

23. Wilson was on the "O'Really Factor?"

That's a comedy show isn't it?

[KharmaTrain]

24. Nah...It's Science Fiction

No offense to Sci-Fi Channel fans.

Anything on Faux that resembles reality is purely shear luck.

[jsamuel]

5. Isn't that the state that just had 3 top Republicans resign due to corrupt

ion?

[fob]

17. I believe you're thinking of the 3 corrupt repukes in Kentucky

[mcctatas]

20. So many corrupt repukes...

it's getting hard to keep track of them all.

[Cha]

6. A repuke, no doubt!

The Daily Show has been Priceless the last couple of nights!

Skewering repukes all over the place!

[BeatleBoot]

7. Pat Roberts from Kansas (Repuke)

Then, if I'm not mistaken, he voted against the Frist amendment, too.

[marmar]

10. I'm sure he considers Faux the only real news...

What's the matter with Kansas?

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

11. As noted above it was Pat Roberts and he is also the Chairman

of the Senate Intelligence Committee. He and two other Repukes put an addendum on a report that really skewered Joe Wilson. This report is where Mehlman, et al are getting some of their talking points from.

[Ian David]

13. Should we make him miserable out of all proportion for shits and giggles?

Wouldn't it be cool if he caught more heat for berating Jon Stewart than for anything else he's done in his career?

Can we protest outside his office?

I think we should blow this up out of all proportion and get more publicity for The Daily Show.

[Ready2Snap]

14. As Stewart said a few shows back

"Kansas, where they're still disputing the 'Round Earth' Theory."

[Incitatus]

15. Fake News?

-
On top of that, "Daily Show" viewers know more about election issues than people who regularly read newspapers or watch television news, according to the National Annenberg Election Survey. (Pop quiz)

So what does that say about the "real" news?

22. The Newsweek guy, Isikoff (sp?) said tonight that TDS

had the best Plame explanation out of anyone (from last night's show), especially the bit with the monkey washing the cat! Admittedly, that was a bit of a digression, but GOD I love that monkey and that cat!

[emdee]

21. I saw that! It was hilarious....

I had hoped they would use that clip on tonight's show but I guess it happened too late in the day.
