Stewart's Mea Culpa and Pitch to a Friend!

Anyone who anxiously awaited what Jon Stewart would do with the Weiner story Monday night, came away severely disappointed. Crotch shots, texts, sexts, tweets, googles ... all of it right there for the Daily Show to pull out the stops, yet Jon threw up a chest shot, mumbled a few words and, faster than a New York minute, moved on.

I had visions of a grill, complete with Ball Park, Hebrew National, Nathans and Oscar Meyer Varieties, Virtual babes offering bun assortments and condiments, and Congressman Weiner wolfing down Oscar to shrieks of fawning and "Everyone loves Anthony."

To atone, Stewart, a longtime friend of Congressman Anthony Weiner, mockingly took shots at himself last night, in ever increasing proof, then "maimed" himself and finally stepped down, so John Oliver could do what Stewart couldn't, but the Daily Show audience demanded...rip Weiner!

Congressman Weiner, if you needed any confirmation on who your friends are, look no further than Stewart. He's got your back and sound advice. Take it!
