Colbert Roasts Shrub
Yes this is way late but then I’m posting this link mainly for my own entertainment however if you haven’t seen this you really must. 2006 White House Correspondents Association dinner.
The US Prez spends most of his time listening to advisors who tell him what he wants to hear. Nairy an opposing opinion makes it to his oh so sensitive ears. In his book there is only ever one way to do anything - his way. So it must have been a bit of a shock to hear that in fact he’s screwing everything up and sending us all to hell in a bandbasket.
Pity the poor party planner who thought that Stephen Colbert would toe the party line and not expose the Decider-in-chief to The Colbert Report brand of truthiness. I assume they either have never seen the show or, perhaps more shockingly, they didn’t realise it was an ironic take off of right wing pundits like O’Really.
You’ve got to admire the balls of a comedian who can keep going to such a frosty reception in the hall sustained only by the knowledge that the future internet audience would be laughing their arses off when they replayed the downoad again and again and again.
