A foreigner, raised in a radical madrasa by Communists, his sole purpose in life is to oversee the utter desecration and ruin of our fair republic and Christendom in general.

If you don&#8217;t watch the Daily Show because, like me, you&#8217;re too cheap to subscribe to Comedy Central, you may have missed Jon Stewart&#8217;s scathing, if measured, condemnation of financial punditry as a gaggle of cynical hucksters.
