Stewart to Obama: Sell Health Care Like Bush Sold War

| | Comments (0)

In his inimitable style of mashing up video clips from many disparate sources, Jon Stewart contrasts the Obama administration's inability to get on message about a health care overhaul, something he says the country desperately needs, with the Bush administration's ability to sell the Iraq war, something he says we did not need. It's typical Stewart, simultaneously funny and frightening.

If you feel like the debate over health care has racial undertones - you're right. At least according to the Daily Show's Senior Black Correspondent Larry Wilmore. "That's what happens when you have a melting pot, the stew gets darker," Wilmore says. But don't worry white America, being a minority isn't so bad. As Jon Stewart finds out, it's fun to claim that other people are racist.
