I think Paul Begala and Tucker Carlson thought this was going to be a comedy segment, but John Stewart pulled no punches. He let them have it at every corner. Stewart fans, and anyone else will love this.

Here is a transcript from the exchange.

You are partisan, what do you call it, hacks.

CARLSON: Let me ask you a question on the news.
STEWART: Now, this is theater. It's obvious. How old are you?
CARLSON: Thirty-five.
STEWART: And you wear a bow tie. ...

STEWART: It's not honest. What you do is not honest. What you do is partisan hackery. And I will tell you why I know it.

STEWART: You know, the interesting thing I have is, you have a responsibility to the public discourse, and you fail miserably.
CARLSON: You need to get a job at a journalism school, I think.
STEWART: You need to go to one.

CARLSON: Wait. I thought you were going to be funny. Come on. Be funny.
STEWART: No. No. I'm not going to be your monkey.

Look out for when he calls Tucker Carlson a certain D word.
