"He's not breaking up with us!" he squealed.
But the campaign video President Obama released on Friday lacked the vigor and inspiration of his 2008 campaign. Instead, he featured seemingly exhausted supporters who, in Stewart's opinion, don't seem to like him or trust him, but ask "what are you going to do?"
"How do we go from 'Yes we can' to 'You know, whatever'?," Stewart asked
But it's harder than it looks to seek re-election. In 2008 Obama said he wanted transparency and accountability in the White House, but now it's hard for him to run on the same platform. In fact, he recently received a transparency award and didn't invite the press. Stewart kind of understood what was going on there:
"When you were running for the White House, you wanted to know what the White House was hiding. Now you live in the White House and you want everyone to stop being so f***ing nosey." http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/04/05/jon-stewart-mocks-obama-2012-campaign-v...

At least there's always going to be entertainment value to the emerging drama of 2012, as long as we can continue to laugh at ourselves. We're getting what we deserve.

Officially launching his campaign? He's done nothing but campaign for three years.

Yes certainly, Stewart's bone dry and razor sharp humor is unique. When I look at Obama supporters now, I can't help but wonder what is wrong with them. I can somewhat understand the reason why African Americans who are racists support him, since he's half black and all, but other than those people, I can't figure out why anyone else would support his relection. When I see an Obama bumper sticker on a car, I still look at the driver with amusement. They never seem to have a very bright look on their face, and if it's a white male, he ALWAYS is an obvious metro sexual!

Not many black folks are going to vote for him next time around, probably. Obama's been so good to Wall Street gangsters and Banksters that they may support him, especially if a lunatic gets the Republican nomination, which would be bad for business. Michael Moore says that Obama's raised more re-election money from Wall Street so far than all the Republicans put together.

Well, I wish you were right about that! There's an overwhelming majority of blacks, and a lot of ignorant whites, who pay no attention to the relevant issues, and still think that Obama's doing a great job, and will most certainly vote for him again! Most of them will vote for him because he's half black, they have no clue about what he's done, who he really is, or what his agenda is. The hope is that enough of the closeted white racists who voted for him the first time to prove to themselves they were not racists, will move on since they already made their statement to themselves the first time.

To comprehend it, just take a drill and drill into your skull, near the central region up front, perhaps the drill bit will hit the cognition region of your brain, and dumb you down quite a bit, and then you'll be able to comprehend it all just fine! Hey, it might even turn you into an Obama supporter and a "Progressive" as well if you damage enough of that region!
Have you noticed that some ball lacking freak has trolled around in this this thread voting down comments, but did not have the testosterone to actually post a comment. That's typical of the Children of the Left, they are as freaky as the Children of the Corn!
