The
following video is from The Daily Show, hosted by the one and only humorous Jon
Stewart. The video was about President Barrack Obama’s State of the Union
Speech. Every year, as presidents give speeches like these, there is always
opposing speeches. Mostly Republicans, everyone was accusing the President of
America that he is failing in ruling this important and huge country, and there
has been nothing but failure since he has gotten the position. Although, every
person that gives these types of speeches ends up making a mistake which makes
their speech ineffective, useless and humorous. As a result, Jon Stewart hands
out an “Implody Award” every year, to the opposing speaker that gives the worst
speech. The first speaker was a Republican member, Joni Ernst who has grown up
castrating pigs and riding Harley Davidsons’. Having such an aggressive
childhood, she ends up talking about how her shoes were dirty when she was a
child, in a robotic voice… Jon Steward ends up saying, “Is that you Siri” (The
Daily Show- Majority Retort). Although, this was not the worst one. Senator Ted
Cruz, another Republican Tea Party Member who wants to run for the President’s
seat wasn’t able to even say two complete sentences. “Medium incomes have
stagnated….. For over a decade. Uhh let
me start over again” (The Daily Show – Majority Retort). Jon Stewart gives the
man a tip by saying that if he wants to run for president, he should not make
his response look like a ransom video. Due to this huge failure, Senator Ted
Cruz receives the Implody Award.
This
video was effective in showing how unprepared and ineffective the Tea Party’s
speeches were. As a result of their failures, Jon Stewart used these failed
speeches to make fun of them for opposing the President’s speech without
sufficient evidence.
