Alan: Just give conservative politicians "the floor" and they immediately diminish themselves both politically and morally. Still, it is heartening to see Stewart parse their dimwitted words, at the same time plumbing uncharted depths of mendacity and cravenness, finally bursting forth in dazzling displays of selfishness that re-cast Silvio Berlusconi as Mother Theresa. In the video clip above, Stewart opens in top form. Starting at the 7:31 mark, he crescendoes to comedic climax simply by "giving the floor" to conservative "luminaries" now bent on destroying The Republican Party after failing to destroy America's experiment in Liberal Democracy.
