If you haven't seen Stephen Colbert do the White House Press Corp dinner you owe it to yourself to check it out.

As soon as I saw Bush and that bullshit CNN leftwing biased crap journalist I shut it off.  Just more of your typical crap that you can not seem to get away from.  Do you not have anything better to do with your day?  Do you not have a life?

Rearranging the chairs on the Hindenburg lol sounds about right.

SirKenin:

Colbert is a comedian. Apparently some clueless right-winger mistook Colbert's parody of a right-wing journalist for the real thing - kind of like someone else we know, eh?

Somehow the idea gets more brilliant as it goes...

I hope you are not talking about Me, and if you are, next time it would probably benefit you if you would actually read My posts before commenting.  I did not say anything about him, or Bush.  I said I shut it off as soon as Bush's face appeared on the screen, before anything was said.  They could be talking about the price of lego for all I know and care.

I've read tons of Your posts and figured You must be from that same school of comedy as Colbert. You're not? You're serious?

Great clip, Colbert's a funny man. He wields truthiness like few others.

Well he skewered the press corp almost as hard as he nailed Bush.  That whole bit about the "intrepid investigative reporter" being fiction was priceless.  If those idiots had done their job we wouldn't be in Iraq and just might have caught Osama by now and the world would be much safer.

YMMV, I just didn't think it was as funny as the hype has made it out to be ... and the chase scene at the end was tortuous to watch (and not in a good way).
