MSMcCainiac #2 & #3

The good people at The Daily Show are keeping an eye out, too.

Jon Stewart did a spot-on send-up of the Mainstream Media McCainiacs tonight, specifically George Stepho-whatever of ABC and Wolf Blitzer of CNN.

The former, in an interview with McCain, did not even question the Senator when he said:

  1. He was “glad” to have the endorsement of John Hagee (you remember him: the one who said, after Katrina, “I believe that New Orleans had a level of sin that was offensive to God.”)
  2. He will “find ya $100 billion tomorrow” (in the federal budget).

Meanwhile, Blitzer praised McCain for “bridging the gap with African-American voters” and “taking another detour from the usual GOP campaign trail.” And what did out heroic septuagenarian do? Why, he went to Selma, Alabama … and spoke to an overwhelmingly white, middle class audience.

Stewart squealed, “He went near where black people live! Clearly the Sweet Talk Express is unstoppable.”
