Wasn’t it Jon Stewart’s “The Daily Show” that coined that phrase, via Stephen Colbert?

I don’t think Colbert had his own show yet, but he may have. In that case, it would have been “The Colbert Report” where it originated. Either way, both shows started with Jon.

Stephen Colbert during the W administration. It seemed they thought his satirical Colbert Report character was actually one of theirs. Funny stuff

like 70-80 percent of EVERYONE else with a D after their name would be just as emphatic and to the point as John Stewart. Perhaps we’d be in a different place today. But, alas…we are not.
