The Daily Show: May 21, 2007

"Middle East Trouble?": Senior Beirut Correspondent Jason Jones reported on the violence in Lebanon. The comparison between South Lebanon and 90s Seattle was great, and was only topped by Jones calling Canada the world's gay friend. It's funny 'cause it's true.

"The End of the Affair": Bush and Blair are breaking up, you guys. The montage of all the loving glances was awesome. I think the best clip was of the two of them walking; Bush in the leather jacket, Blair in the sweater... Beautiful.

"Wilmore and Oliver Investigates: So You've Offended An Entire Race!": The second team-up effort for Larry Wilmore and John Oliver! It wasn't as hilarious as their first report back in March, but still funny. I'm so surprised that woman didn't jump up in frustration and pop the two of them in the face. Oh, Wilmore and Oliver playing tag was also kind of cute.

The night's guest was Zaki Chehab, author of Inside Hamas: The Untold Story of the Militant Islamic Movement. He talked about the importance of extremism vs. moderation and Lebanon's current situation. I feel like I missed a lot of the interview because I had trouble hearing Chebab. I can be really bad with accents...

Jon/Stephen: Ah, so there is now an explanation. There are only two check-ins every week. Moment of Zen: Bush and Blair, sittin' in a tree...
