Video update - Judge Napolitano on The Daily Show 1/10/12

[Watch]

He was way too hyped up last night. He needs to cool it with the coffee.

Hope the Judge is more diplomatic in his approach this time than he was on his last appearance. Don't get me wrong; I personally love his forceful, uncompromising style. But it didn't seem to mix well with Stewart or his audience.

We need a multipurpose Judge appearance that, to borrow from the old antiperspirant ads, can be "strong enough for a libertarian, but made for a liberal."

"strong enough for a libertarian, but made for a liberal."

This!
To me it reads "strong enough for ideological honesty, but made for ideological demagoguery"

 

[Diurdi]

I think the Judge was pretty entertaining though last time he was there, but seemed a bit insane

 

[Muttley]

Given the fact that he literally RAN to his chair to sit down, he definitely needs to chill out a little bit. I think if he took the Libertarian overtone to an undertone, the audience would truly understand what he's saying.

 

[wide awake]

He was a bit over the top last time. It would be helpful if he framed his responses to the questions about less government using specific examples, particularly pertaining to those issues where a liberal audience needs some hand-holding to get why less government is better in areas where they fear lack of regulation (e.g. explain how federal authority and the EPA actually hurt the environment and individual rights and protected BP after the oil spill)

That's pretty funny.

I meant "last time", obviously.

 

[kpfareal]

I thought the Judge did good last time. He acted like himself, I don't think he should change that.

 

[IterTemporis]

[BuddyRey]

who watched ?

Couldn't find my remote.

Have to wait for the tubes.

 

[wide awake]

watching it now on dvr...

A bit more calm
blasting establishment republicans
pumping up Paul
Stewart said he was bothered by his response to the newsletter

 

[Muwahid]

Glad to hear. The only sad part is the Daily Show audience doesn't appreciate The Judge.

I hope he brings up NDAA and how their boy Obama signed it but Ron Paul was the only one who was publicly condemning it.

He's to FOX newsish for them, they lump everyone there in one basket, heck I was suspicious of him until I started watching his program, I lost patience for fox long ago

 

[shadowhooch]

The Judge was AWESOME!!!
He unabashadly pumped Ron Paul and how he stands out. The Judge reiterated how we only have 1 big government party and Ron Paul is the only one standing up for the individual.

He took over the show. Good stuff.

 

[wide awake]

Judge somewhat agrees with Stewart that Paul could have handled it better but
saying there is only one establishment party
Judge got all pumped up and said government is best that governs least
points his finger at Stewart and says "you believe that Jon Stewart"
Stewart says "no I don't know that I believe that but now that you say it, I weirdly want to hug you anyways!"
Judge cackles and that's it

 

[Gumba of Liberty]

The Judge was brilliant. Bravo.

 

[AhuwaleKaNaneHuna]

I saw it.

The Judge was all about Paul. Stewart was questioning why the Republican party doesn't know where it stands with itself and is full of contradictions.

Stuff like they say they are for free market capitalism and then reem Romney for it.


The Judge carried on that there is only one big govenment WAR party with a left wing for mainstreet wellfare and a right wing for wallstreet welfare and then there is Ron Paul.

Stewart says Pauls responce to the news letter still bothers him. Judge told him " He condemened it and now lets move back to getting the candidates on the issues" Stewart wasn't satisfied. :/

Thats the gist of it.

 

[Mini-Me]

The thing I like most about Jon Stewart is that he treats his guests respectfully as individuals, and he genuinely tries to bridge the gap of understanding when he disagrees with them instead of fishing for sound bites to use in smears. He knows what he believes in, but he actually cares about how other people think and why, and he's open to learning from them. That's a rare quality in people in general, and it's exceedingly rare among media pundits. I even saw an interview with Maddow where he gently chided her for the constant "teabagger" slurs. I guess his role as a comedian has let him avoid the pitfall of taking himself too seriously and becoming too invested in "being right" and destroying the opposition, but regardless, he just seems to be cut from a totally different cloth than most, and I have great respect for him.
