Not like some who just flatter people.

Jon Stewart was ground breaking comedy and we all know it...I cry because he is leaving the show, but I am happy for him and thankful for all he has done.

Jon Stewart brought sanity to our world. He was an invaluable resource all through the Bush years.

I haven't watched every episode, or even close- but I and people I know learned how to laugh and snark at things that appalled us rather than flipping out and leaving the dialogue.

He will definitely be missed.
