Mitt Romney surprised no one yesterday when he announced that he's running for president in 2012. What does this mean for some of the other prospective candidates, like Michele Bachmann and Donald Trump? On tonight's Daily Show, Jon Stewart broke it down for us.

During the fight over the federal budget, Republican Senator Jon Kyl stated that over 90% of the services performed by Planned Parenthood were abortions. Over the weekend, the folks at Fox & Friends said that Walgreens offered many of the same services as Planned Parenthood. On tonight's Report, Stephen Colbert hilariously debunked them both.

With less than an hour to go before a total government shutdown, Congress reached a temporary budget compromise on Friday night. So how'd the media treat the showdown, both before and after the deal was hashed out? Here's Jon Stewart's take on the coverage.

Comedy Central forayed into the awards show market this evening with the airing of its first-ever Comedy Awards. When Jon Stewart predictably won the statuette for late-night talk show, Stephen Colbert pulled a Kanye West and crashed Stewart's acceptance speech in glorious fashion.

On yesterday's Report, Stephen Colbert aired the first "My Fair Colbert: Stephen Colbert's Crown Jewels" segment, during which he ruined an afternoon tea session with royal biographer Hugo Vickers. Tonight, Colbert ruined a run-through of the proper etiquette for meeting the queen.

On tonight's Daily Show, Jon Stewart talked about what we all figured he'd talk about: Glenn Beck's departure from Fox News. And, naturally, Stewart bid adieu to the paranoid loudmouth by reviving his famed, equally conspiratorial impersonation of Beck.

On tonight's Report, Stephen Colbert debuted a new series—"My Fair Colbert: Stephen Colbert's Crown Jewels"—in which he attempted to become more British ahead of the royal wedding. Up first: Colbert had high afternoon tea with British royal biographer Hugo Vickers—and by "had," I mean "ruined."

You can tell that a war zone has really gotten out of control when Geraldo Rivera shows up—and that's exactly what just happened in Libya. On tonight's Daily Show, Jon Stewart examined—and heartily mocked—Rivera's role in the conflict.

On tonight's Report, Stephen Colbert detailed the recent ubiquity of James Franco. It turns out that Colbert thinks Franco is cramping his style, so he declared him his nemesis. Then Franco showed up to defend himself (but not his Oscars performance).

Tonight, Jon Stewart detailed the tactics both sides are using as they battle over the budget and avoid a government shutdown on Friday. From questionably unconstitutional legislation by Republicans to sarcastic retorts from Democrats, it seems everyone's acting a little bit childish. What else is new?

After losing more than 300 advertisers in the last year, Glenn Beck may lose his Fox News show when his contract expires in December. And on tonight's Report, Stephen Colbert did his best to prepare us for the upcoming "Glennpocalypse."

On tonight's Daily Show, Jon Stewart opened with a one-two punch against President Obama. First, Stewart criticized the President for his lackluster first campaign video. Then he marveled at Obama's lack of transparency, despite repeated promises of increased openness.

On tonight's Daily Show, Jon Stewart—during an "Indecision 2012" segment—opened with discussion of potential Republican presidential candidates for 2012 and the need for them to desperately appeal to what amounts to a pretty ridiculous base of voters.

On tonight's Daily Show, Jon Stewart opened with a segment about President Obama's address to the nation (given last night) about America's mission in Libya. Apparently, Stewart isn't too keen on Obama's explanations—or the timing of them.

Tonight, during Jon Stewart's "I Give Up!" segment, the Daily Show host discussed the news that GE paid no federal income tax for 2010, despite $14.2 billion in profits. Stewart also took aim at President Obama and NBC News.

Tonight, in a segment more fitting for 30 Rock than The Daily Show, Jon Stewart considered the problem that NBC News has because of the fact that it's owned by GE, whose products often appear in controversial news reports.

On tonight's Report, we witnessed the conclusion of Stephen Colbert's "Raging Art-On," where the host delved into New York's art auction scene and attempted to get top dollar for a portrait of himself to benefit charity. How'd it go?

On tonight's Daily Show, Jon Stewart opened with a new segment called "When Reporters Attack." His first target? HLN loudmouth Nancy Grace, and her hilarious fight with a meteorologist who said that radiation from Japan probably wouldn't harm Americans

On tonight's Daily Show, Jon Stewart—for the second night in a row—posed some pointed questions to President Obama related to the United States' military action in Libya. This time, Stewart took issue with Obama's lack of communication.

Over the weekend, the Unites States—along with France and England—began military attacks on Libya in an attempt to remove murderous dictator Muammar el-Qaddafi from power. Tonight, The Daily Show returned, and Jon Stewart questioned the coalition's actions.
