Jon Stewart: Obama ‘Losing Patience’ With Americans‘ ’Inconsistent Irrationality’

Jon Stewart wants you to know that your “inconsistent irrationality” is starting to annoy the president.

In a half joking, half serious segment on his show Thursday, Stewart pointed out what he thinks are contradictions in America and the press corp when it comes to critiques of Obama. He then invited a “guest” on to talk about how Obama’s approval ratings of the American people are declining.

While you have to recognize that much of this is jest, the underlying point is one that the administration and many liberals hold true: the American people — including his supporters — just aren’t grateful enough for what Barack Obama has done for them, or worse, just don‘t understand what he’s done for them. In sum, Americans are a bunch of ungrateful, dumb plebs. Offended? You’re not alone. Even Keith Olbermann has started to pick up on how demeaning that view is.

Here’s the segment:

    Actually, Obama has done a lot for the far left and anyone else who wants to see the country fail. If any of THOSE people are complaining, then they are ungrateful.

    As for the rest of Americans (IE the vast majority) who want to see the country succeed, well… most know what Obama is and what’s going on, and the rest are waking up. The media has become so blatantly corrupt, biased, and state controlled that even the most ignorant members of society are starting to notice something is very wrong. It has gone from viewer denial to viewers noticing their own media is in denial, and I think it scared a lot of people awake.

    Thank you One Nation March, thank you CNN, thank you MSNBC. Thank you for deluding yourselves into believing your audiences are unthinking morons, overplaying your hands, and prematurely exposing yourselves.

    I think I know what happened: They organized too much. These people are used to building overly complex, inefficient governmental structures… and they did the same thing to themselves. Now their own movement is collapsing under its own weight because it was held together with duct tape and propped up on stilts. They patched together dozens of different fringe groups to get the numbers they needed, and now it’s go time they are tripping over one another.

    Hapless control freaks by nature, all pulling in different directions… sit back and watch them tear themselves apart.

      What’s frustrating about Obama in essence:

      Obama: I’ll do A!

      Republicans: No, you‘ll do B or we’ll call you a communist!

      Obama: (Does B)

      Republicans: You’re a communist!

      You see how that can get frustrating after a while?

    I agree he is not qualified for the job but I don’t think he took the job to be president, he took the job as a chance to finally turn this country into what the progressives have wanted for more then 100 years. He was groomed for this opportunity and came in at just the right time when most Americans were fed up with the same crazy politics and thought a new face with no experience would help. They were blinded but now are awake. I just hope it is not too late to kick his ass out and fix what he has broke and I hope with the Tea Party, we have the real new blood this country needs.

    So sad. Just when things looked so promising for the “Professional Left”, the wheels are starting to fall off. They had worked soooooooo very hard to get things in order: The Mainstream media was all lined up, both houses of Congress firmly in Democrat hands, a rock-star presidential candidate who worked as a community organizer, had Marxist/Socialist credentials, and had spent 20 years in a “church” that preached Liberation theology and “Social Justice”. Did I mention that he was also a minority?? I’m thinking Progressive jackpot!! So were they……unfortunately, they seemed to have forgotten that the American people are not Europeans….we don’t bow to Royalty(unless it’s the Lynard Skynard Band) and we don’t buy into Progressive principles like those losers across the pond.

    So boo-hoo-hoo to all of the pinko commie Progressives and their “useful idiot” pals….we ain’t gonna roll over and play dead for you. You might as well face the facts and man-up! (Racheal Maddow has already taken a big step in the latter).

We are so lucky that people woke up in 2010 on election day. Now prepare for 2012, as we must take down the Senate majority and elect a smart prez. Then, maybe then, things will look brigher.

I guess if it was against the majority of the American people’s wishes it was okay, but now that the tables have turned the light bulb has gone on. Hope they are feeling a bit flexible because they are the ones that need to start bending over now and take it like the vast majority of the American people have, and generations to follow, if this agenda isn’t stopped dead in its tracks.

      Obama couldn’t get his full agenda passed even with super majorities, he knows he is done. He has to work with republicans now wether he likes it or not. People who don‘t understand why the repubs are ticked off haven’t been paying attention, they were completely ignored for two years and the dems know they are going to get a little payback now.
      I like Jon Stewart though, I think he is funny. I fortunately have the talent of seeing through nonpartisan eyes while he is doing his show. I don’t think I would like to sit down and talk politics with him, probably wind up slapping him.

      The teaser today from the “Speech Giver” is that his new campaign for 2012 will be the same ole song and dance, all CAREER POLITICIANS run on. He did the “Change Thing” in 2008, so all that is left for the sheep to rally around in 2012 is TAX reform!!! Pelosi and the other Traitors will try NOT to pass anything. They have proven they do not CARE about WE THE PEOPLE but only TRANSFORMATION. So what if WE THE PEOPLE”S tax’s go up in 21 days. They really do not care about the “Middle Class” when the hidden Agenda is ONE class of sheep!! The “Speech Giver” coming out and bashing BOTH parties was for a reason. It is all about keeping “ONES” power. The “Speech Giver” knows that to keep his POWER and to be re-elected in 2012 he will have to ACT like a MODERATE. Beware of a WOLF covered in sheepskin. Why do you think he is meeting with Clinton??? I do not “Know what the definition of sex is” holds more POWER with the PARTY than the “Speech Giver” does. Power hungry people throughout history have always changed alliances. Why are many sooo fascinated with the show “Survivors” they love a good back stabbing!! The sad part about the ‘Government Stupid” is that it is WE THE PEOPLE that are always getting ambused from behind by the ones always preaching “For the good of THE PEOPLE!!
      If nothing is done and WE THE PEOPLE‘S tax’s all go up. Who wins? The FAR-LEFT does because this might bring even more PROTEST from WE THE PEOPLE called Tea Partiers. Is the HIDDEN AGENDA of the FAR-LEFT to get WE THE PEOPLE in the streets and to become even MORE angry at the “Government Stupid”? Do they want violent dis-obediance to declare Marshal Law?
      Why is Clinton ALWAYS in this picture? Is POWER the only thing in this man’s life? Is the “Speech Giver” really a Manchurian president for Clinton and a small group of Dictator wannabes?

      Behold . . . applause for Jonny. He is so hilarious; he’s intelligent; he is crafty, just look at his beady little eyes. But one thing he is not . . . is capable of presenting his liberalism in any other way than as a joke: How absolutely fitting that is.

      However, switch your focus for a moment to Mr. Stewart’s message . . . the nature of his message. And then consider the measuring board of the Obama super liberal: The Reverend Al Sharpton.

      If we were to score Mr. Stewart as Mr. Limbaugh has been scored, in regard to racial appropriateness, Mr. Stewart . . . in a sane world you would also feel the soles of your feet burning, tied to the stake . . . flames of contradictions dancing flickering, reaching your crotch burning at your pockets and, but not . . .

      Do we see what is happening . . . of course we do? And they know it. The question is what are we going to do about it? What actions are we going to take when their ideas of justice are delivered with the “pitch forks” and the repressions and the economic ruin they promise?

      They are telling us what they want to do . . . and when we take notice we are chastised as the inciters of violence and unrest, of committing crimes. Limbaugh is to be taken down and silenced by way of the Sharpton tentacle of the regime. And meanwhile, a sweet melody plays in the darkness late at night from across a border town; Jonny’s music plays on mocking the violence and the carnage of his brother Sharpton and Obama. . . the blows of liberalism, the great compassion; screams of pain and finally death masked by the laughter of all that have gathered to hear Jonny sing.
