The Daily Show with Jon Stewart: Tonight, the author of the new book Independents The Great Awakening: Reviving Faith & Politics in a Post-Religious Right America, Jim Wallis. Jon begins tonight with some disappointing news about the stock market as it plummeted over 300 points recently. President Bush tried to quelm fears of a looming recession, but as Jon notes, the market didn't appear to take Bush seriously as the marker worsened after his speech. Bush riding around on a some kind of factory machine didn't help much either. Indecision 2008 continues as Jon takes a look at the Democratic debate in South Carolina. Finally, Jason Jones reports on the status of the Iraq War and attempts to bring back Iceland into the coalition of the willing in this first of a two part investigation called "Operation: Deserter Storm".
