Election 2002: The Joke's on U.S.

John Stewart is great:
"Torricelli, a powerful fund-raiser who helped raise more than $100 million for the Democratic Party, took inappropriate gifts from a businessman, including an $8,000 gold Rolex watch ?," The Daily Show 's Jon Stewart said during a recent monologue. "To recap, raising $100 million in contributions from gigantic corporations: ethical. Taking a watch: unethical. That's the Senate Ethics Committee: an oxymoron since 1974."

Bill Maher was canceled because his show sucked. I seriously doubt that censorship had anything to do with it. If he had the ratings he would be on the air regardless of his position.
