I want Jon Stewart's dialog of the descriptions of the types of Bullshit that he gave close to the end of his last show.




1. example was something about you don't label a thing with 'let us do this because you are afraid so of course you give us the right to listen in/read your phone calls and texts'. Instead you label it 'The Patriot Act'.

2. Bury it under a lot of Bullshit and by the time you've dug the thing out to look at you don't care.

3. Link it with a lot of other things that have no connection at all to the Bullshit. Sort of a cluster of Bullshit.



His parting monologue was about detecting B.S. around us.

The “best defense” against the substance, Stewart said, “is vigilance. So if you smell something, say something.”
