    Kristen Schaal — who is criminally underused by The Daily Show, as I've said before — stopped by the show last night to spar with Jon Stewart about Sarah Palin's new favorite meaningless political term, "Mama Grizzlies." In case you haven't seen the vacuous video she put out, here it is:

    Honestly, that means so little I'm reminded of nothing more than the joke from 30 Rock in which Steve Martin's unscrupulous CEO made up an entire company that did nothing and distracted everyone with a commercial that just said words like "future" and "progress." Naturally, The Daily Show had a great time tearing into the ad, and helpfully explained why liberal moms are more like gerbils than bears:

    Kristen Schaal's all over the place lately. Not complaining at all.

    She's really good. The grizzly stuff scares me, granted I'm all for women gaining power within any movement and having strong voices (granted not if they are spewing unintelligent animal metaphors and only given a voice because they are the mothers of the empire or some such)

    Schaaal's a great comedian. As for Palin, I can't listen to that voice anymore. And the content is so terribly vapid and emptyheaded.

    Palin is the face of the republican party. This is a beautiful thing for all democrats and political comedians.
