Colbert Uber Alles

So, I have not been able to see Colbert rock Iraq, since his show is not on any of my channels in Paris.

but this quote says it all:

“I know his persona is all pro-American,” Lieutenant Klempan said, trying to explain the math of Stephen Colbert and “Stephen Colbert” and which one of them had come for what reason. Finally he gave up.

“I’m glad either one of them showed up,” he said.


Iraq is now the backwater, and Afghanistan is the show, along with the economy. That will change as things continue to fall part (see ricks.foreignpolicy.com for updates on the unraveling). But, good to see that Colbert is spreading the joy.
