Stewart is at least being crazy intentionally. But here's the thing: Stewart does a great impression of Beck. I'm not entirely certain that Stewart can be imitated.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

....how so?
In terms of views?
In that case I take Stewart by miles. Agree with him way before Beck.
In terms of entertainment? Well, I guess also Stewart since Beck is just a nut, but at least he's not supposed to be funny.

Don't care about either really, but I trust Beck just about as much as I trust Richard Nixon. Or should I say zombie Nixon ...

Stewart. Glen Beck is funny, but only in a pathetically ironic sort of way.

What about Nixon's head in a jar on Futurama?

Actually, Stewart is funnier, but Beck is more entertaining.

At least Beck does research regardless of how crazy his conclusions are. Stewart is just a comedian.
Then again, what's the point of the poll?

Not that I think Beck would be at all good at running anything but I couldn't possibly vote for Jon Stewart. He's a vile, deceitful, unhappy, little man like most left-wing whores. The worst part about Stewart is that he hides behind his non-existant comedy so that he can spinelessly slotch down and look innocent when interviewed. He's basically Janeane Garofalo without the balls. There are few people I despise more on this planet that Jon Stewart and his lacky Colbert.

Stewart is funny on purpose.
Beck is at best pathetic, at worst, dangerous.
For a right wing comedian, Dennis Miller was funny, even after he went openly right wing. Then he just petered out.

Glenn Beck makes me lol far too much, I mean he espouses everything with an inflection that suggests the state of human existence depends on his revelations.

He's still a joke is more like it. 
And not a funny one. He's kind of like uncalled-for flatuence. It's just not funny.

long JJ rant in condensed form: Stewart used to be funny, then became serous. He hides behind a poor poor attempt of humor, but is as serious as Beck! Of course the few times he's been called out on it he just says "lolwut this is a comedy show chill" and every young liberal in America now loves him and as a god who can do no wrong. Yes, coming from a young liberal. Huzzah!
