I do like the way Jon told David to man-up about the dog. Jon's wife is a vet..so of course they would have a dog... :D

1. Jon Stewart's stature is not well-measured in feet. Nor, for that matter, is Gregory's.

And no better representation of that observation than these two men.



Sorry, edited for a gratuitous comma.

5. Neither Gregory nor Stewart chose their heights. It doesn't mean anything. nt

7. Agreed.
I dislike physical characteristic bias - what could it be called featurism?

8. Actually, it's heightism. We prefer our leaders to be taller and assume taller folks are more
capable. Really do. It happens in school, the workplace and politics.

11. Short people got no reason
Short people got no reason
Short people got no reason
To live

They got little hands
Little eyes
They walk around
Tellin' great big lies
They got little noses
And tiny little teeth
They wear platform shoes
On their nasty little feet

Well, I don't want no short people
Don't want no short people
Don't want no short people
'Round here

Short people are just the same
As you and I
(A fool such as I)
All men are brothers
Until the day they die
(It's a wonderful world)

Short people got nobody
Short people got nobody
Short people got nobody
To love

They got little baby legs
That stand so low
You got to pick em up
Just to say hello
They got little cars
That go beep, beep, beep
They got little voices
Goin' peep, peep, peep
They got grubby little fingers
And dirty little minds
They're gonna get you every time
Well, I don't want no short people
Don't want no short people
Don't want no short people
'Round here

13. I honestly had no idea that Douche Gregory was 6' 7"
Probably because he's always sitting down (aside from that "Dances with Rove" episode that I have tried to purge from my mind). Does explain why Chimpy called him "Stretch", I guess.

And as usual, he was in Douchebag mode, comparing the birthers to those of us who refused to buy the LIE that Chimp was elected. There is absolutely no comparison whatsoever.

14. Yeah. they really need to rethink the camera angle when Jon greets the guests.
That or else he's really 5'2".

I've seen him dwarfed by pretty average female actresses from the angle they're shooting at.
