‘F*ck You, Rush!’ Stewart Tears Into Limbaugh, Boko Haram

Jon Stewart took on Boko Haram and the #BringBackOurGirls campaign, but took an aside to issue a strong “f*ck you” to Rush Limbaugh for mocking and belittling the hashtag activism over the kidnapping of hundreds of Nigerian girls.

Stewart tore into Boko Haram and said that #BringBackOurGirls actually proves Twitter can be more useful than you might think at pressuring people to do something. And so in reaction to Limbaugh rolling his eyes at the hashtag activism, Stewart came up with a new hashtag for people to use: #F*ckYouRush. Stewart even contrasted the people speaking out on the girls’ behalf with “that f*cking guy” Limbaugh to show what the two sides are in this argument.

But Stewart kept things in perspective and saved his utter scorn for Boko Haram. He said the girls they kidnapped are the real “badasses,” because they go to school every day, fully aware of the dangers facing them if they do. Stewart concluded, “Boko Haram is a bunch of little girls. But, you know what? You don’t deserve that compliment.”

Does anyone actually watch this stuff?

I would never know what Stewart said or did without people here passing it on to me!

Unfortunately, a lot of 20 and 30 somethings actually think that they're getting news when they watch this comedian

Jon Steward is, unfortunately, the most effective propaganda TOOL the left wing establishment has.

Overheard on the Staten Island Ferry (the evening commute) "I have to get home and watch John Stewart do the news."
What a clueless young man. He doesn't know the difference between parody, propaganda and real news.  God help us all.

It is extremely troubling to watch the left get almost violent. We have 2 plus years left of this regime. If we aren't in the streets by then I will be surprised. Or maybe our side will be locked up. Surely many will hide in fear from them to avoid the backlash.  The left wants to destroy us and anything we value. They are getting away with it.

If they get immigration they get 50mil more of them to harm us and a permanent voter base for at least  a generation.

With all the help of his staff, Stewart appears knowledgeable. I remember hearing he blasted Truman for dropping the atom bomb, but when his Democrat viewers lashed out Stewart eased his way out of it by saying, "well, that was a stupid thing for me to say." He changed his views on the dropping of the atom bomb in a day?

Precisely.  This young man was a total idiot.  It is frightening to know that he is the future of America.
