Hee-larious bit on The Daily Show by correspondent, Samantha Bee, titled "Is America Ready for Mormons?" The video hasn't found it's way to YouTube yet but you can find it through this link.
The inclusion of Mitt Romney into the 2008 race has only helped to fuel the faithful fire of keeping religion knee-deep in politics. But it's a weird nasty tone, isn't it? Anytime I see a news piece on Romney being Prez the gist is something akin to: "Is America ready for a Purple Six-Foot Alien as President?"
This "Is America ready?" media machine has been revving up ever since Romney got in the race? Here's an interesting 2006 article from MSNBC. When will a major story on Romney be about something other that his religion? Is this really what is going to dictate his actions as president? Or is this fear-mongering (hmmm, who does great fear-mongering these days?) just a quick, easy way to get one more guy out of the race?

Hilarious? Her whole act depended on potty humor that wasn't even close to being funny. She's not a comedian in the least. Without the vulgar jokes and disrespect, she would be left with no act.
awww, come on. if you're using the term "potty humor" then obviously this is not the right kinda comedy for you. i understand. nothing wrong with that. but "not a comedian in the least"? a lil harsh, anonymous... hey thanks for commenting, you rock! keep stopping by and help us TAKE RELIGION OUT OF POLITICS
