Daily Show On The Residents Of Alabama’s Decision To Decimate Its Government

This is from the September 24, 2003 program.
Alabama is facing its worst budget crisis since the great depression. When faced with a modest tax hike or the utter decimation of its state government, Alabama voters voted for the utter decimation of the government. This will result in the closing of 52 driver’s examination sites, 2 Field offices, the creation of a 4 day work week for State Troopers, hundreds of employees and prosecutor’s offices being laid off, and 5,000 – 6,000 inmates being released early (among other things).
As usual, I received all of this detailed information from
The Daily Show

Watch This Clip Before You Vote Today – Arnie’s Groping Confession and Helpful Score Card (Including Bizarre Vagina Requests)

Wish I’d had a chance to put this up over the weekend, but I just got back into town late tonight.
A friend of mine and I were discussing the idea of creating a “groping index” of sorts that might be useful to help keep track of the 16 sexual harassment complaints about Arnie that have come in so far — and the rest that are likely to start pouring in over the next few weeks.
Little did we know that Jon Stewart had already begun just such an index last Thursday night!
This is from the October 2, 2003 program.
Jon will be providing live results from the election tonight! Don’t Miss it!

Shrub to U.N. About Iraq: We Were Right. You Were Wrong. Give Us Money.

This is from the September 23, 2003 program.
This is more information than I saw on the “traditional” news channels last week about the Shrub’s plea to the U.N. for more money for his Shrub War.
Jon Stewart sums it up nicely: “We were right. You were wrong. Give us Money.”
I mean it’s only fair, right? Why should only Americans die in this senseless occupation?
There are also some bizarre references to “sex tourism” that I don’t fully understand, and some interesting information about the Iraqi police force that isn’t forming as quickly as hoped. They’re trying to build a police force of 40,000, and so far they’ve got 800!
