Jon Stewart a moderate?! Not at all. From what I've been able to glean from him, he is definitely a liberal. Not that there's anything wrong with that. His show is first and formost a comedy show, so I don't care what his leanings are. The bias that I see in the mainstream press is much more of a concern to me. It seemed to me that when Jon Stewart started out, he was Itmore balanced about it than he is now. He seems to keep doing the same jokes night after night. I'm just not as much of a fan of his as I used to be. I like Steven Colbert much better than I like Jon Stewart. They both do roughly the same things, but in a different manner. Steven uses more in the way of satire to make his jokes. I'm a conservative, I know that he is likely not a conservative, and maybe even a liberal. But I like the way he does his show. His "Word" segments are usually great with the little comments that are posted on the screen. Also the threatdown (with it's constant focus on bears), and his interviews are often Hilarious. How the people that he interviews don't know who he is by now is beyond me. But it's great to watch him interviewing some politician somewhere, or some expert on something, and stop them dead in their tracks. It seems that his show is much fresher and funnier. Just my opinion though

I can't believe what I'm hearing. I'll admit that all things being equal it makes sense to buy the item with the best price (eg. the subsidy) However that is a flawed argument since all things are not equal. That would make the Hardware be equal, the computing power, the games, etc. That isn't the case here... Or if it is, then Nintendo is still the better deal. They have either figured out a way to give everyone a massive subsidy (over 350.00) or the other companies (especially sony) are ripping us off majorly. By that logic, then no matter which way you slice it, Nintendo comes out on top. However as a general comment. Having to sell your product at a loss in order to get people to buy it does not strike me as a position of strength. By that logic, no company should ever sell things at a profit, because that means they don't believe in their product. The fact that nintendo is willing to put it's console out there at a price that makes it a profit shows great faith in it. They believe that their product is strong enough that people will want to buy it without having to drop the price so low that they will lose money. Microsoft and Sony must lose money on their product otherwise they fear no one will buy it. Would you buy a PS3 if you had to pay the full 1000 (or whatever it costs to make it, plus a profit). Or an XBOX360 if you had to pay the full 600?
