Jon Stewart on The Daily Show was absolutely devastating tonight. If you can catch it in reruns, or watch the feed from Comedy Central, make some time in your day to do it. His use of humor to bitchslap the republicans, especially Michael Brown and Preznit Knows Nothing were classic.
Ed Helms doing the best imitiation of Beloved Leader: "We're Zucchini eaters; we eat Zucchini". (Beloved Leaders statement: "We're problem solvers, we solve problems".) Thinking back on that riff from Helms, I can just hear Preznit Always AWOL when he made one of his few, actual flights in the TANG: "My airspeed is slow, I've got slow airspeed"...no wonder they sent him for remedial training then grounded his sorry ass.

My favorite lines are the one about dipping "Brownie" in bronze and giving him as an award to other officials and this exchange:
Ed Helms says:...through the President's leadership, he'll end up building a billion dollar damn in Arkansas.
Stewart: Why would he build a damn in Arkansas?
Helms: His plan will be to fight the water over there, so we don't have to fight it over here
