I guess we all knew this was coming. During what he called his "one day old, expanded coverage" of the state of the union address, Jon Stewart had a field day with Marco Rubio and his nervous, flop sweat, dehydrated response to President Obama's speech with a series of sight gags throughout the segment. He also got some knocks in on President Obama for not making a higher priority of our crumbling infrastructure and for pretending that there's been transparency over the drone program.

Stewart saved his more substantive criticism of Rubio for his following segment, where he went after him for doing what we've seen far too often from Republicans, which is attacking the fictional image of Obama that only exists in their own minds.
