Colbert hits a trifecta


Is there any wonder why Stephen Colbert's Colbert Report won a Peabody Award? This latest clip is one of his wittier ones in recent memory, as he hates on the Myanmar junta, Michelle Malkin and Scott McClellan. That's quite a trifecta.

As angry as I get over Malkin and McClellan, Colbert brings me (and millions of others, presumably) back down to Earth with just the right amount of sarcastic humor.

By the way, I'll have much more about McClellan later tonight - the press has been in a feeding frenzy, and the way he's hitting the talk show circuit, you'd think he was shamelessly plugging a book full of ideas that he should have said years ago when he was really in a position to make a difference.

Oops.
