Stephen Colbert dared to do what journalists are supposed to do: Point out injustice and abusive exercise of power by our elected officials. We can't let him be crucified by the MSM!
Someone should immediately get a DVD of his performance printed and put up for sale on amazon.com. Maybe play it daily on public access TV and public radio. The masses know funny, and they know truth. By wielding satire and irony, Colbert exposed the last five years of Bush's rule for the atrocity that it is, with Truth shining through his hilarious Truthiness.
Stephen Colbert is a comic god, and one of the few purveyors of Truth left in the mass media. And we have to support him. I bet the Powers That Be will try to get his Comedy Central show pulled. We can't let that happen.
