Jon Stewart Takes Down The Media And Trump For Obama Birth Certificate Controversy
Daily Show host Jon Stewart had a field day with the circus surrounding the White House’s presentation of President Barack Obama‘s long-form birth certificate and Donald Trump‘s subsequent… helicoptering.
All joking about Trump’s hair aside and ostentatious hobbies aside, Stewart brought up a great point: Why are so many outlets painting the revelation of Obama’s long-form birth certificate as “shocking news”? Wouldn’t the truly shocking news have been that Obama was not, in fact, an American citizen? Or that he was some sort of humanoid robot the entire time? Has the definition of “shocking” really changed so very dramatically?
Now onto the important issues facing this nation. Where is Obama’s longest-form birth certificate? And is Trump made of magic? How else can one possibly explain his ability to successfully answer a question by only tangentially addressing it?
