I agree the video was lame, but when he told the press to get a life and write a book, a fictional book about white house correspondents, I nearly fell off the couch. I think most people tend to get offended when people they like are criticized, but when Pres Bush had that skit a year or two ago about looking under the table for weapons of mass destruction, he made fun of himslef in a smimilar way that Colbert did. After that, the liberal media criticized him for making light of the WMD issue.

I agree and thinking back on it I guess a few lines were funny. I was just hoping for more from Colbert. When I heard he was the speaker, my husband and I made a point to watch it hoping for great laughs like we get when we watch his show, but that was not the case. And believe me were laughing out loud during Pres. Bush's skit. I have no problem with people making fun of Pres. Bush, as we all have to be able to laugh at ourselves.

But the Democrats act like Colbert really gave it to the President. I didn't see that at all. I guess that just goes to show that ones political views can effect how one viewed the show.

Also, don't you love it when Colbert interviews members of Congress??? That is classic!!
