You Realize That Colbert Told Scalia To F*ck Off, Don't You?
Unbelieveable. Scalia's obscene gestures have been totally forgotten/ignored by the press
since the story broke a few weeks ago. Colbert put it right back out there.

I'll bet the press spends more ink and TIME on Colbert using those gestures than they
did on Scalia's original offense.

Best of all, Colbert touched on many, many topics that are more than a week or two old. The
press has been magnificent in "moving on" from bushco's many offenses. It's a conscious
decision to minimize the cumulative effect of bush's many disasters.

Colbert showed every one of them (the press and politicos) that the country does have a memory, and we're not about
to forgive or forget the complicit press corps, the illegal wars, or the fuckin lies.

Colbert for president!

11. Well, we CAN touch him. But I don't know of anyone with the
courage to do so.

5. Something that was on C-SPAN on a Saturday night
isn't going to change anything. Love what Colbert did, but don't get crazy.

12. I think the original gestures by Scalia were much more insulting
to BushCo, to the Supreme Court, and to all citizens of this land - audience or no (church) audience...

9. It may not change a thing
but it will be seen by everyone except those few who didn't know anything about the OJ simpson case before they made it on the jury.

And dam it feels good to see the Decider have to sit and listen.

6. I counted AT LEAST 4 gestures...
the chin thing, and the arm thing...

Steven has the biggest balls of all. We should take up a collection and buy him a "ball sling"

8. It was a masterpiece
On top of the PNAC reference on his show a couple of days ago. He dealt the entire stinking rotten edifice a truly resounding blow.

I'm still delirious with delight.
