Jon Stewart: Tonight We Learned It’s Better To Support Prostitutes Than Social Security (VIDEO)

Jon Stewart: Tonight We Learned It’s Better To Support Prostitutes Than Social Security (VIDEO)

Jon Stewart was covering the election live tonight, and he was a little surprised that Republican Sen. David Vitter “has absolutely destroyed his challenger by going out with hookers. So really what is the message we’re sending America tonight? It is better, I think, to go see prostitutes than in fact to believe Social Security is a right.”

Stewart was also happy for New York Governor candidate Carl Paladino: “Carl Paladino’s campaign to not be elected governor has succeeded. Andrew Cuomo is the victor. Paladino, of course, tried very hard not to be Governor. He must be feeling very pleased tonight.”
