Jon Stewart Congratulates Conservatives on Capital Punishment Victory: ‘What The F-ck?’ (Video)
Chins up, conservatives: There are plenty of Supreme Court decisions to go around these days.
While liberals got the news they were hopping for out of the nation’s top court last week — Obamacare holding up and gay marriage being made the law of the land — those on the right now have something to celebrate too, and Jon Stewart was happy to cheer alongside them Tuesday.

He concluded simply: “What the fuck?”
