Transcript of Stewart's remarks on Bush reading Albert Camus' "The Stranger" during his summer vacation.

I really want to get into this, this may be my favorite story that has come along in a very long time, and may be a sign of how troubled our world is right now, uh, this year, President Bush decided he's only doing a ten-day summer vacation at his crawford ranch, which really...WHY EVEN BOTHER at that point?
World events may also influence HOW he spent his vacation,
Press Secretary Tony Snow said Bush spent part of it reading Albert Camus’ "The Stranger".
Now, if you've never read The Stranger, it's a classic novel about a Westerner who kills an Arab for no good reason and dies with no remorse, WHY THAT WOULD STRIKE A NERVE...? I don't know...
