Well, hasn't it always been the role of the court jester to be the only wise or sane one in a court of idiots? There's a line from Shakespeare about this, if my wits were a little more present at the moment (King Lear?)... Anyway, I have always thought of John Stewart as America's jester, or the boy who cries out that the emperor has no clothes... and that is why he can get away with doing these things when no one else can, or when no one else is even willing to try.
