It's French... B!tch.

On Saturday night, over 2,000 journalists, politicians and Washington insiders gathered for the White House Correspondents Association annual dinner. President Bush was there and took part in a skit with presidential impersonator Steve Bridges. And then there was the featured entertainer, Stephen Colbert, the host of the Comedy Central fake news program, The Colbert Report.

If you followed how the corporate press covered the night you might not have even realized Colbert spoke but he gave a talk that repeatedly mocked the President and the press for its failings. Here it is. Special thanks to Devin & my friend Ilona, a flamingly ranting liberal, for the link.

That was the ballsiest thing I had ever seen and I totally commend Colbert for it.
