Stephen Colbert: American Hero Speaks "Truth to Power" To the Prez

Comedian Stephen Colbert, (pictured left, bravely offering himself as a martyr to the liberal cause,) spoke at the White House Correspondent's Dinner last week. He caused an uproar when in lieu of being funny, he decided to let President and Mrs. Bush have it. But instead of his unfunny diatribe being covered by the national media, it was deliberately censored by the US government and its willing shills; the mainstream press. Such bravery deserves a medal - not like those phony Purple Heart thingies they give to the Fascists who do Bush's dirty jobs - but to real American heroes, like Colbert, who would sacrifice their funniness to seize an opportunity to get paid a lot of money to echo the views of their television audience. Kudos, Stephen. Unlike the slave-owning white men capitalist fascists who started this racist country - you are a true American hero.
