Stephen Colbert

I never find Stephen Colbert funny. I never liked him. And his patriotic (real and not the acting ones) are jarring. Yesterday, he had the editor of wikileaks on. He asked him about the video and started to interrogate him. He asked: but the Iraqis on the ground; some of them had weapons. So the Iraqis on their lands have no right to have weapons, but the Americans in Iraq have the right to carry weapons. Such are the standards of the media in the age of empire.
