Oh, Jon. You're always there for us during a time of crisis to make lemonade out of life's fiscal lemons! And like that marginally coherent lemon metaphor I just used, Congressmen from both sides of the aisle are making cheesy, nonsensical comparisons when discussing the financial crisis. In the Daily Show clip above, they liken the country's financial woes to cowpies, undertows, bartenders and traffic. Stewart compares their rambling to Chris Farley's sales pitch in Tommy Boy, and the similarity is so apt you don't know whether to laugh or barf. I can't wait for the Spade/Ferrell ticket in 2012!
