This seems wrong

So i'm reading my latest issue of the Journal of the Theodore Roosevelt Association (join here) and came across a couple of pictures of Mo Rocca. He's the guy from the Daily Show who is a featured commentator on VH1's "We Love the 70s". The caption says he's been a member of TRA since 2000.

I just can't imagine TR and Rocca at the same table at dinner. On one hand you have the proponent of the vigorous life and defender of the man in the arena. On the other, the Manhattanite whose stock in trade is irony-drenched observations from the sidelines.

Roosevelt, like Andrew Jackson, is the antithesis of our age. They spoke plainly, made enemies by the score, and preferred action over commentary. Rocca, like most comedians today, obeys PC pieties and mocks safe targets from a distance.
