The Daily Show Reveals That Obama Is Keyser Sose

In the best Daily Show correspondent piece since the election, Jason Jones interviews two preachers who think Obama is the Anti-Christ and Hitler, respectively, and once he puts the pieces together, his "Yes, We Can" mug crashes to the floor:

"You should have thought longer." It sucks that the Reverend James David Manning is already widely considered to be batshit insane, because if he wasn't this might be his downfall. Instead, he probably thinks this interview went well.

It's good, but it would've been funnier if he'd tone down on the faces. Being dead pan about it is much more funnier than just outright mocking them. That's just too easy.

Lindsay, you're spelling is atrocious. It's Keyser Soze. Not that big of a deal I guess but it kind of kills the joke. Don't you have Google search toolbar built in to your browser.

I loved the piece in general, but it irked me that they actually said Keyser Soze during the looking at the bulletin board dropping the coffee cup part. Don't explain the jokes, Daily Show!
