Stewart takes ‘anonymous’ revenge on GOP senator
To the surprise of many observers, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) read anonymous comments about Judge Sotomayor in her confirmation hearing Tuesday.
“ABC’s World News and NBC’s Nightly News reported Lindsey Graham’s citation of anonymous criticism of Sonia Sotomayor published in the Almanac of the Federal Judiciary without noting that Sotomayor’s 2nd Circuit Court colleague reportedly called such criticism ’sexist,’” Media Matters complained.
The Daily Show’s Jon Stewart found some anonymous quotes from the Internet about Graham to read on the air Thursday.
Some choice examples:
“Lindsey Graham takes it up the cornhole.”
“He is a sad sack of shit and is an embarrassment to the state of South Carolina.”
“He’s such a white Southern pig racist idiot douchebag.”
The audience roared in laughter after Stewart also revealed that Graham is “actually featured on the ‘men who look like old lesbians dot blogspot site.’”....................
