thank god for the daily show

after all the gushing over obama's inauguration, it was good to see that the daily show back to its old tricks
there was a fear that with obama in the white house, satire would die
not in this case, however. stewart and co have the will to look at the things they believe in with the same scrutiny that they used on the old administration

it may be a cliche, but i get a lot of my american news from the daily show

and if i miss an episode?

hype for the future

i woke up this morning just as barack obama was being sworn in as president of the us
no matter what radio station i tuned to, i couldn't avoid it
while history was being made, i was taking a shower and getting ready for work
now, don't get me wrong, were i an amrican citizen i would have voted for him, but just listening to orgasmic euphoria that has infected the media today
never mind journalistic objectivity, whatever happened to straight reportage of the facts?

still i feel sorry for obama. you would think that after 8 years of bush, he wouldn't have to do much to be a success. however, expectations have been raised so high, i wonder if anyone could meet them.

good luck to him
