Stewart and Colbert investigate Obama's fly-swatting
You've probably seen the video of President Obama killing a fly during an interview with CNBC (yes, PETA is mad). Last night both The Daily Show and The Colbert Report handled the incident in very different ways. First, Jon Stewart runs around with his shirt off, and after the jump, Stephen Colbert tries to interview the widow.

surely, at least one other person thought that Colbert was going to interview a window.

I just squashed a defenseless spider, I look for PETA to kick my door in any minute! Get real! PETA has gotten ridiculous.

I am never surprised by PETA, These people are less than brainless. They wonder why why more people dont support their efforts and then they come up with this kind of foolishness. I for one am happy that we have a President capable of taking action, I do hope he washed his hand afterwards as flies are big germ vectors. Put it outside humanely.........OMG.....

This skit with Jon and Dan was hilarious! I laughed until I cried. I love to see serious guys like Dan Rather in a comedy skit. Jon was such a pu**y!
