pwned

I've often been heard bitching about the media's lack of memory when it comes to public affairs issues. That's why it's refreshing to see it done right. The Daily Show does this on a regular basis. Here's a clip I just chomped out of tonight's episode (2.2M, about 50s long).

In case you don't want to (or can't) play it:

Bush nominating Michael Hayden as the new director of the CIA, today:

He's the right man to lead the CIA at this critical moment in our history.

Bush nominating the now departed (and totally useless) Porter Goss, August 11 2004:

He is the right man to lead this important agency at this critical moment in our nation's history.

Nice, nice work guys.
