<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I love Jon Stewart! I will miss him immensely. I did not agree with all that he said, but I loved that he called bullshit on those that required it.<br /><br />He launched a VA diatribe every chance that he got waving the bullshit flag on them and their ludicrous backlog and red tape. <br /><br />He also took shots at Arby&#39;s every moment he could. And Donald Trump... And Lindsey Graham... And Dick Cheney... And Bill O&#39;Reilly... And DiBlasio... And........ ((l miss him already..le sigh))

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I love Jon Stewart. I hate to see him leave. He has trashed the VA many times. At least he can bring attention to the issue.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>His nearly daily presence, incisive wit and willingness to take on power, even face to face, in a hilarious way, will be missed.
