Stephen Colbert's Saturday Night...

And don't just look at the video, listen to the response.
Not a single hearty burst of laughter; mainly just nervous titters and throat-clearing, wasn't it? The only one who really laughed uproariously was Justice Scalia, and he can afford to laugh. No one from the Thought Police is going to be dragging HIS butt into custody, right? Scalia disallows anyone from recording his voice without permission, do you really think he's stable enough to realize when he's being hammered in the head by Colbert's sharp nails? Probably not.
Yes, our fellow Americans, the truth DOES hurt. It would certainly explain why Colbert was last on the ticket for the correspondent's dinner, and his display is apparently missing from just about every newspaper in the country. No, it seemed much better news to hear about how Bush personally hired a look-alike to pose with him in a lovely photo op, to tell the world, "Look, look! See?? I can still laugh at myself!" This from the same "comedian" who thought it was funny to pull up a table-cloth and say, "Nope, no WMDs here," while across the world another plane loaded with flag-covered caskets took-off from Iraq for Virginia.
Yeah, that was funny. I'm sure the wives or sisters or mothers or brothers thought it was a riot.
What Colbert said wasn't the truth; it was supposedly fake, based on his masterful creativity and his Comedy Central gem "The Colbert Report". But if it was all so fake, why wasn't anyone laughing?
Could it be because the White House shakeup WAS in fact like re-arrangng the deck chairs on the Hindenburg? I personally wouldn't use that metaphor. I preferred his Titanic better, but instead I would have said it was like scraping the barnacles off of the Titanic. I guess I would call Scott McClellan a barnacle, sure. Thankfully his task is almost complete. Now to disappear like Ari Fleischer did until his book comes out. Except Scott CAN'T write and is stupid. Oops. Well, maybe he can launch a new diet.
Was no one laughing because, shock and dismay, he made a stab at the press corp, for failing to cover the news that was important to America, and making sure it stayed out as long as possible? Is he laying down the gauntlet to them now? Are we hopefully going to see a "flip-flop" in news reporting? I noticed a report recently that a LOT of reporters have left Iraq to other assignments. I guess Iraq is getting to that lovely status of "old hat". Or the gov't just simply doesn't want them there anymore because it's about to get worse. Well, Bush WARNED us it would get worse, so if more sons, daughters, fathers and mothers die, we certainly can't blame HIM, can we?
Was no one laughing because the truth was really out there for all of them to see, and they feared it? Make no mistake, when Bush passed Colbert that Saturday night, he got a stiff nod, and a fast exit.
Bush KNEW.
Well, Bush KNEW a lot of things...
