The impetus for this attack was that Stewart had the gall to speak out on behalf of American soldiers who were poisoned while serving, but for whom the country was not providing necessary healthcare. Stewart&#8217;s efforts contributed to the bipartisan passage of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanityfair.com\/hollywood\/2022\/08\/pact-act-passes-after-jon-stewart-flames-republican-lawmakers\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the PACT Act<\/a><\/strong> (despite eleven Republicans voting against it) that will finally deliver the care that they need.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=52207\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Jon Stewart Wants to Know How Fox News Can Put a Sh**head Like Tucker Carlson on TV Every Night<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So what on Earth could have triggered Tucker into such a tempestuous tantrum? Well, apparently it has something to do with his looks, particularly his height. Carlson <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mediamatters.org\/fox-news\/tucker-carlson-reacts-passage-burn-pit-legislation-mocking-jon-stewarts-height\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">lashed out<\/a><\/strong> maniacally at Stewart accusing him of&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;&#8230;looking like a guy who lives in the men&#8217;s room at your public library, eating imaginary insects out of the air.  And he was there to get, for some reason, into a shouting match with the senior editor of Human Events called Jack Posobiec. [&#8230;] He looks demented.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This raises the question of how Carlson is so familiar with denizens of men&#8217;s rooms at libraries. More to the point, Carlson completely misunderstood the reason Stewart was there. It wasn&#8217;t to argue with Posobiec, a notorious racist and conspiracy theorist. It was to help the heroes that Fox News pretends to support. But Carlson was just getting started. After playing a brief, and purposely edited video clip intended to make Stewart look bad, Carlson went on to rant&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;That\u2019s Jon Stewart? The famous Jon Stewart? He looks like a homeless mental patient. He\u2019s shrieking and disheveled. And very short. Really short. Too short to date. Was he always that short? What happened? Where\u2019s he been the last 7 years? If you know, let us know. We want answers.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Tucker complains that Jon Stewart is too short to date <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/BTQdks0IaH\">pic.twitter.com\/BTQdks0IaH<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Acyn (@Acyn) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Acyn\/status\/1555355482054971392?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 5, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Yes, Tuckums.

And while Stewart may be only 5&#8217;7&#8243;, if he 6&#8217;7&#8243; he still wouldn&#8217;t date you. So take a cold shower in a library men&#8217;s room and get over it.

Carlson&#8217;s hatred of short people says much more about himself than it does of Stewart. However, Stewart had a prompt and appropriate response&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Friends.

Did Carlson really think he could beat Stewart in a battle of the burns? Stewart&#8217;s retort was both funny and topical. Hungarian dictator Orb\u00e1n just spoke at the ultra-rightist CPAC conference where the conservative crowd cheered his racist and authoritarian views. Carlson is a huge fan of Orb\u00e1n, having traveled to Hungary in order to do a slobberingly softball interview late last year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=50287\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Fox News Fascinista, Tucker Carlson, Cozies Up to Hungary\u2019s Authoritarian PM Orban<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, Carlson&#8217;s infatuation with Orb\u00e1n is reciprocal. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=52982\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Orb\u00e1n recently praised Carlson<\/a><\/strong> saying that <em>&#8220;programs like his should be broadcasted day and night.

In 2005 Stewart appeared on CNN&#8217;s Crossfire which was co-hosted by Paul Begala and Carlson. In that encounter Stewart told Carlson that he was <em>&#8220;not going to be your monkey,\u201d<\/em> and that he is <em>&#8220;as big a dick on [Crossfire] as you are on any show.\u201d<\/em> A few weeks later Crossfire was canceled and Carlson was fired.
