Recently, the bottomless memory of the internet unearthed an old routine from comedian Jon Stewart’s “The Daily Show.” Since this was from back in the Obama era, leftist TV comics felt confident enough to take a very occasional swing at their own side. This routine had Jon Stewart looking at the famous picture of then-Vice President Joe Biden creepily nuzzling a very uncomfortable looking red-haired girl. Stewart tries to wash his eyes out and screams in agony as the image won’t go away.
Stewart then interviews Samantha Bee, now almost famous for slinging unfunny four letter words in the direction of the White House. Here, Bee plays a reporter who’s just come from interviewing the Vice President and still has his handprints on her breasts and backside. Yet she’s tremendously excited because, “The Vice President shook my hand! Can you believe it!”
