Jon Stewart rips GOP on government shutdown

Jon Stewart tore apart Republicans over threatening to shut the government down over Obamacare, using it to claim the GOP doesn't really care about the Constitution that much to begin with, mocking their concern that Obamacare is "the end of America as we know it for reasons no one is able to clearly explain!

Stewart walked through how Obamacare was already upheld as constitutional, and offered a simple analogy: when football teams lose, they don't say "If you don't give us 25 points on Monday, we will shut down the fucking NFL!" He decried this "utter insanity" and berated the media for thinking both sides are equally at blame here, likening Republicans to an "asshole causing a head-on collision" on the highway."

Stewart ended by calling out the GOP for the talking point that Obama negotiates with Iran but not them.

"You're not helping yourself if it turns out that President Barack Obama can made a deal with the most intransigent, hardline, unreasonable, totalitarian mullahs in the world, but not with Republicans, maybe he's not the problem!"
