From Gawker on The Coming War for Glenn Beck's Internal Organs:

On last night's Daily Show, Jon Stewart performed a bravura 8-and-a-half minute monologue in the style of Glenn Beck on the subject of Glenn Beck's appendicitis.

The highlight is probably the unveiling of the conspiratorial internal organ chalkboard. All the notes — references to old and discredited texts, the Founding Fathers, transparently phony stabs at nonpartisanship, crying — are hit, though Stewart never quite reaches the operatic unhingedness of a genuine Beck performance. The glasses are a wonderful touch, though.
