Jon Stewart and ‘The Daily Show’: They’re Just Not That Into Lame Female Comics. Meritocracies are brutal. You should know, since you yourself practiced a kind of meritocracy. As a child, you were bigger than the bug. Splat! Too bad for you, bug. How dare you exist. "The Daily Show" sexist? In the adult world, however, distinguishing between a true meritocracy and a prejudicial pattern of hiring is not so clear cut. In the last couple of weeks the Internet has been rippling with controversy over “The Daily Show’s” lack of women — “The Daily Show’s Woman Problem,” by Irin Carmon on jezebel.com, “Outrage World: How Feminist Blogs Like Jezebel Gin Up Page Views by Exploiting W...

We were going to comment on correspondent Helen Thomas and her recent controversial comments about Israel, but instead we thought we’d leave the commenting to the reigning champion of political humor.

Elizabeth Warren: Bank Watchdog Who Belongs on Supreme Court. Elizabeth Warren On Monday CNN reported that Elizabeth Warren, Harvard law professor and chair of the Congressional Oversight Panel for the Troubled Assets Relief Program (TARP), made the short list of nominees to replace Justice John Paul Stevens. What a difference a year makes. I called it here on Politics Daily last May, but back then I was dreaming more than predicting. On Tuesday night Warren appeared on MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show” to address runaway foreclosures and the indifferent response of the very banks that taxpayers just bailed out to the tune of $700 billion. Warren pointed out that TARP was supposed to repair the economy at large, not just banks. It...

It is an advanced intellectual means of developing new perspectives and coping with extreme circumstances. A maltreated animal has two potential responses to an abusive master: attack to stop the abuse, or cower/flee to avoid it. He cannot disarm the bully with a witty remark or ironically imitate his master behind his back for his own amusement. One of the first government actions in Nazi Germany was the establishment of a law against treacherous attacks on the state and party that made anti-Nazi humor an a...

CoulsonOn Tuesday, I criticized a new economic modeling paper (“Anti-Lemons”) purporting to show that unfettered education markets are bad and that government can fix them with the right regulations. Andrew Gillen comes to the study’s defense, and I’m delighted that he’s taken the trouble to reflect on it rather than just saying “I like it.” But there are problems with his analysis. First, he faults me for dismissing the “Anti-Lemons” models for being based on false assumptions, citing Paul Krugman: I am a strong believer in the importance of models, which are to our minds what spear-throwers were to stone age arms: they greatly extend the power and range of our insight. In particular, I have no sympathy for those peopl...

Some surmised that Vanna’s appeal stemmed not from her blondness, but rather her blandness. Viewers saw either a girl next door or an irresistible, slightly dangerous hottie, depending on what they wanted to see. So my suggestion for 2012 presidential candidate is: Bruuuuuuce! Yes, Mr. Springsteen. The singer. Well, why not? Since our elections are about symbolism, good looks, personality, body language and the voter’s ability to project on to a candidate the promise of their unspoken desires and redemption of their broken dreams, why not Bruce? You know I’m right. Chris Matthews su...

Comedians, meanwhile, are cleaning up. In fact, one is a now the junior senator from Minnesota. For many Americans, “The Daily Show,” hosted by satirist Jon Stewart, has supplanted the evening news. And this year The Onion, a site that is 100 percent parody, won a Peabody Award for its online send-up of cable-TV news. One-time sportscaster Keith Olbermann brings attitude aplenty to his MSNBC show, “Countdown.” They say things. They’re not afraid. You might call them modern-day court jesters. From wikipedia: Jesters could give bad news to the King that no-one else would dare deliver. The best example of this is in 1340, when the French fleet was destroyed at the Batt...

And worth every penny because of the good health and prosperity that will surely come, especially when your happiness is achieved through positive thinking. Ugh . . . no, says cancer survivor Barbara Ehrenreich, author of “Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America,” and, more recently, “Bright-Sided: How the Relentless Promotion of Positive Thinking Has Undermined America.” Last week Ehrenreich appeared on “The Daily Show,” where host Jon Stewart asked if positive thinking is all right as long as intentions are good and it works for some people. “I never think delusion is OK,” Ehrenreich replied.

I hope to update more later with further commentary after rewatching/watching the extended version online. However, but two things stood out that I want to comment on now. Please note that the “quotes” below are not direct transcripts, but the best of my recollection. Huckabee said something, when talking about work to convince women not to have abortions, to the effect of “if we can get them to realize, that’s a heartbeat, that’s a life.” He also refers at some point to young women and his thinking that most of them must have be...
