No matter your political affiliation, this bit by John Stewart is incredibly funny. Thank you, Daily Show, for finding a way to make me laugh out loud about something that I find so not funny most of the time.

My name is Andrew and I am a first year resident training to be an ophthalmologist. I created ShortWhiteCoats to provide medical students, residents, and the public with all the information I spent so many hours looking for during medical school.
