Disappointed in Jon Stewart - Cindy Sheehan

So, I was very disappointed with Jon Stewart's monologue about Cindy Sheehan last night. I know that he leans left (if by leaning, one means already knocked over) but he is usually an equal opportunity mocker.

What I really object to is his statement that Bush refuses to meet with Cindy. Although he is clearly refering to her recent emcampment outside Bush's ranch, this is disingenuous given that Bush has met with Sheehan.

I like Stewart so much that I'm sure I'll get over it... but I'm still fuming this evening.

I wonder if Stewart is bold enough to look at the issues from another side.

As far as Sheehan, my opinion remains the same.
