Colbert = Awesome

Stephen Colbert (NU alum!) gave the keynote speech at the White House Press Correspondent's Dinner on Saturday night. His audience, understandably, was pretty much dead. Joke after joke, and dead silence... Why? He got to look Bush in the face and say things like "don't mind your low approval ratings. Those are based on reality, and we all know that reality has a liberal-bias." Who knows who picked him to give this speech, but if they'd been watching his show they would have known about the "cool reception" that W. and Laura would have given Stephen Colbert after his speech and audition video for White House Press Secretary.
