The Daily Show's Senior Alaskan Correspondent Samantha Bee took on Jon Stewart in a segment titled "Half-Baked Alaska" on Monday night.
As Bee said, calling Sarah Palin's resignation as quitting, or even resigning is off-base:
"That is such an in the box elitist way of framing it."
Bee and Stewart continued:
BEE: She's a point guard dishing the ball for an open shot.
STEWART: That's one play, a point guard then has to defend and play the rest of the game. It's like leaving half way through the third quarter!
BEE: Yeah, maybe in Harvard main stream basketball.
STEWART: No, that's the rules of basketball.
BEE: Not maverick basketball.
STEWART: There's no such thing as maverick basketball. You're either playing basketball or you're not playing basketball.
BEE: She can't win, can she? If she leaves, she's a quitter. If she stays, she has to govern Alaska. This whole conversation makes me realize how right her decision was, and how even righter her latest decision is.
STEWART: Her latest decision, which is what?
BEE: Well, as all the media attention continues to swirl around her and her family, she's made her decision that she can best help them by stepping down as her mother.
Watch the hilarity:
