  I love the fact that CNN takes The Daily Show with Jon Stewart so seriously. Actually, the should given that the media loves to bring up the fact that many young people get their news first hand from The Daily Show .
Anyway, the reason why I bring this up is because Daryn Kagan was interviewing The Daily Show 's Samantha Bee (easily my favorite "commentator" on the show). Kagan was asking Bee (who is Canadian) what she thought of the Convention. KAGAN: But as a Canadian, what do you think of this whole American political scene really? BEE: Well, it's so different from our scene up in Canada. It's the pageantry. My God, the megawatt star-power here -- it's something that I never knew was possible. It's wonderful. KAGAN: The Canadian... BEE: Very exciting for me. KAGAN: The Canadian folks a little bit more reserved?
BEE: A little bit more reserved. Yes, not so much with the P. Diddy and the Black Eyed Peas. We're more about Celtic rock, things you never heard of -- French-Canadian rock. It's not pleasant. It's not pretty. Anyway, probably only I find this amusing, but I was listening to convention coverage on the way home from work on NPR. When they went for a short break, what kind of music did they decide to play? Celtic music. Okay...I thought it was funny...So, leave me alone.
