Jon Stewart Has a Field Day With Ramesh Ponnuru

Author of the book "The Party of Death: The Democrats, the Media, the Courts, and the Disregard for Human Life," Ramesh Ponnuru, made a guest appearance on "The Daily Show" last night.

The book is basically about how Democrats are evil, especially Hillary Clinton, and giving tips on how to stop this "Party of Death."

Jon Stewart put on his serious face last night and by the end of the conversation, Ponnuru was speechless. One might expect to be that way if they make an appearance on O'Reilly or Hannity from being yelled at and scorned so much, but one usually doesn't walk into Jon Stewart's neck of the woods and expect to receive such difficult questions and intelligent points, that they don't know what their point was in the first place. But, that's what happened between Stewart and Ponnuru last night.

Ponnuru's main focus in the book is how Democrats don't regard human life, as can be shown in their pro-life views, their views regarding what happened with Terri Shiavo, and how the courts and media agree with everything they have to say. This is not a very deep or factually-based book, which one can expect, as Ponnuru is an op-ed writer at The National Review.

Stewart asked Ponnuru about the Iraq War, and Ponnuru, in his high chirpy voice, seemed to agree with everything Bush has said or done, including what the correct toilet paper is to use on one's own hiney. So, Stewart asked about innocent civilians who are killed over in Iraq. At first, Ponnuru misunderstood what Stewart was trying to say, so Stewart S-P-E-L-L-E-D it out for him and by that time, Ponnuru was chirping, squeaking, with no words coming out of his mouth. It was quite the interview. I enjoyed every second of it. It shall play again on Comedy Central tonight, I believe at 7 pm CST (8 EST) or, you could check out the comedy central homepage, click on "The Daily Show," and replay the interview with Ramesh Ponnuru. You won't regret it.
