Chuck Schumer, senior and disingenuous Democratic senator from New York is on The Daily Show tonight.

I paraphrase, but I paraphrase accurately.

So far, he’s said that Clarence Thomas wants to establish different churches in each state, and that Thomas is completely against the commerce clause regulating anything, and therefore wants to roll back all civil rights legislation. Absurd. He’s either ill-informed or completely sadistic. I think it’s a little of both.

He also says that the vote on Roberts was a “close one” for him, and complains that Roberts answered questions too well, complaining that he had to reread the transcript every night from the hearing to see what Roberts’ answers meant. I’m glad that the senator openly complains about doing a thorough job.

Now he’s on Tom Delay. He just made a joke about the death penalty for Tom Delay - intimating the number of executions in Texas. I’m glad Jon Stewart even seemed uncomfortable on this one.

He’s done. Thank God.
