Jon Stewart on Rick Perry’s (Actual) Screwing of America

I love this – Jon Stewart’s thoughts on a Rick Perry remark about Americans wanting a president who is “in love” with America.

“You want a president who would, in a rainstorm, grab America’s hand and take shelter with America in a nearby barn. Maybe help America out of its wet clothes. Maybe lay America down on some hay bales. And then, as America and Rick Perry become one, the sounds of their lovemaking merging with the thunderstorm’s cacophony, the barn shutters rattling, the livestock, the livestock they want to look away but they can’t, their eyes are transfixed. I am Rick Perry and, unlike Barack Obama, I will f*ck the shit out of America.”

Beautiful.
