[Chewbaccus]

Well, my view as to any partisanship as I explained it to my family - and incidentally, Stewart explained it the same way last night when Ed Gillespie (sp?) was on the show - is that, quite simply, the Republicans control the government right now. Republicans have the Oval Office, the House, the Senate, the Supreme Court, and I think something like 60% of state governorships. Since they have such a dominance on the public eye, they're the ones offering up the most targets for Stewart & Co. to fire at.

When you watch the show as long as I have, you notice well that Stewart doesn't shy away from taking shots at Kerry and Democrats in general when they offer a chance. Case in point: I forget the exact text of the joke, but I remember he took a shot at Kerry on Monday's show, when Kerry himself was to be the guest the next night. That Daily Show busts on Republicans more than Democrats or others is more a result of the law of large numbers than any partisanship.
