Straight-Shooter Jon Stewart: I Can’t Believe Mitt Romney Makes $57,000 Per Day
That’s So Much More Unbelievable Than My Own $41,000 Per Day
Gotta love a TV clown complaining someone else is overpaid and too rich.
“That’ses almost–that’s almost $57,000 a day!” Stewart exclaimed. “Here is the most amazing part: the guy doesn’t even have a job! That is f*cking interest! That is the kind of money that might lead a man to make stupidly extravagant out-of-touch impulse bets!”
Jon Stewart’s annual salary is $15 million per year (and I assume he’s also got interest income on top of that from previous banked salary), which is more than $41,000 per day.
Plus — interest and investment income, which is not reflected in that figure.
But he’s earned it. He was once on Remote Control or something.
$41,095 Per Day
At that level or below, you’re Middle Class.
Above that, you’re just taking too much damn money from The People.
Thanks to George.

I don’t think Stewart would mind higher taxes. In fact, he’s been pretty vocal that he supports the Buffet rule, to which he would be subject.
The Buffet rule does not affect investment income.
“Commentary: Jon Stewart is a Sniveling Little Douchebag”
not nearly as sniveling and little as Dennis Miller .. but, hey … they are political comedians
Voting for Mitt, Newt, or Obama in 2012 is the intellectual equivalent of shitting down the mouths of the Founding Fathers.
Jon Stewart is not and has not been lobbying to kill legislation that would increase his taxes.
Mitt did exactly that.
It wouldn’t be blameworthy if Mitt wasn’t running for PotUS. But he is. So that makes HIM the snivelling little douche.
The saddest part is that he is the best candidate in the field. Tough times for the US of A.
Where has Mitt Romney ever said he should pay higher taxes, and when and why did this discussion become “who came piss away the most money into a bloated system”?
