Each time Stewart speaks with Bill O'Reilly, then, the country turns its heads to see what the two most iconic newsmen in America today-each with opposing ideals and ethoses-have to say to one another.

But there is a difference Stewart deals in truth via comedy O'Reilly deals in ratings via hyperbole which more often than not has it's roots in dogma or flat out lies! Big difference!

It's racism plain and simple. And don't give me that bull about here we go with the race card again. Because just as Steward inferred if it had been Bono or Bob Dylan (both of who wrote songs about killing and cop killers) invited to the White House this wouldn't even have been an issue.

Every rapper isn't a thug, just as every cop isn't a saint. People don't get irate when someone writes a song about murdering a rapper. But writing a song about a person who killed a cop is blasphemous?? If you're against unjustifiable murders. Then be against it across the board.

O'Reilly is in shock and awe about a cop being killed. Well news flash sir, some cops are complete and total d*cks! Like Jeff Pelo, who was convicted of raping 4 women. And maybe even some cops deserved to be killed (not saying that the one surrounding this controversy did). I personally wouldn't have a problem seeing the officers that played a role in the murders of three young civil rights workers James Chaney, Andrew Goodman,and Michael Schwerner in 1964 executed. So please don't act like America has had the most honorable justice system throughout it's history.

There have been 271 post-conviction DNA exonerations in the United States.

" The first DNA exoneration took place in 1989. Exonerations have been won in 34 states; since 2000, there have been 204 exonerations.

" 17 of the 271 people exonerated through DNA served time on death row.

" The average length of time served by exonerees is 13 years. The total number of years served is approximately 3,494.

Races of the 271 exonerees:

160 African Americans
80 Caucasians
21 Latinos
2 Asian American
4 whose race is unknown

60% of the wrongfully convicted were African American. For a country that has a Black population of only 13% not only is that statistic down right pathetic but it's transparently racist.

Good comments and hopefully sobering to the Fox News bumper sticker theology crowd!

As far as using "improved gun laws" as a nod to police officers...That is self-protectionism at it's worst....If it was not for the irresponsibility of these urban youth who have abused that right..there would be no issue..In my lifetime of 40 years in the US, I grew up in an enviroment where responsible people could possess firearms in a mature capicity. As a "weapon", a car is just as dangerous...It is sad that these buffoons who call themselves "hip-hop artists" do nothing more than act like predators with firearms, (drive-by's? How can a reasoned man even pretend to relate to such "sophisticated" pretenses...those who endorse a hip hop lifestyle want to pervert such chaos into reasoned "humanitarian" agenda..Something to the akin of, they've exposed America to be wildly out of control and dangerous..Communist China propaganda BS (same as the initials to Bruce Sprinsgteen)) and then they attempt to manipulate their lack of self-discipline as human beings into a "liberal ethos" which is viral in the minds of the uninitiated. They truly belive in Springsteen's lyric, "I guess there's just a meanness in this world"...That is all that they offer a community....self-excuses for meanness and transgression...that is not the United States I know and love.
Politics ought to be a shining example of squeaky clean...Not **** and poo on the walls...which is all this administration fosters. There's nothing unrealisitic about that

Stop with your "responsible" crap the United States is the largest arms supplier in the world period! Talk to gun dealers in Texas who will tell you about Mexican gangsters coming across the border to take advantage of the "Liberal" gun sales policies in Texas.

Stewart is correct in stating artists such as Bono, Sprinsgteen and Dylan do not belong on the White House guest list..Using them as justification is exactly the problem with the liberal ethic these days...It is the root of their corruption...A deep love for self-defeat is written in all of the above-mentioned's lyrics so much so that a standard of virtue are impossible..I know these entertainer's work well and can see how it relates to the emphasis of this administartions allure..But it is hypocrisy...All they do is try to humanize and justify trangressions upon other's human rights for their own selfish intent and rewards ....Politics and entertainment should not be confused...It would be perfectly appropriate and logical for every police union and agency(as well as every law-abiding citizen), in the US to boycott their services to the President, if he consciously endorses hate speech against their professions and the US legal system that is endowed to protect and serve the citizenry...
Stewart's charm is about as brilliant as a tube of year-old toothpaste. Stick a fork in it, it's done.
