Robin Williams might have been the guest on last night's 'Daily Show with Jon Stewart,' but it was a gag involving Muppets that stole the show, especially for all of the political gurus watching Comedy Central's program.

The political scandal catching Stewart's attention was that of RNC's chairman Michael Steele and his organization's questionable spending habits, more specifically, money spent on a February RNC trip to California during which funds were allocated towards a trip to a "bondage-themed nightclub featuring topless women and dancers imitating lesbian sex," reports Mediaite.com.

Such a detail is something 'The Daily Show' just couldn't ignore, and in order to best educate viewers as to what exactly happened on the RNC trip in question, lovable Muppets were used to act things out.
