Should Stephen Colbert be indicted for lying under oath to Congress? Thats what some observant watchers are now smartly asking after Comedy Centrals brutally unfunny comedianbut full-time and major-league clownStephen Colbert made a complete mockery of Congress by "testifying" in character and under oath to a House subcommittee on immigration. It was an unpardonable outrage that Colbertand his unfunny, Bill OReilly-imitating schtickwould willfully make himself a party to what amounted to a waste of taxpayer money, a waste of Congress hearing time, and a total disrespect of the oath to tell the truth one takes before Congress.

I have contempt of Congress...I think MOST of us do.

Yes.
And that lie would be?
If you lie to a liar is it a lying?.
Actually Colbert did have one good idea yesterday—that the ground should be waist high. It certainly would make weeding easier. Maybe Congress should work on that during the lame duck session instead of the kinds of mischief that Reid and Pelosi will try to push through after the election.
It was suggested by Rush that this charade was orchestrated by the Democrats to make sure that all the cameras and newspeople were there instead of at another hearing. That hearing featured an insider testifying that Holder’s Justice Department was aggressively prosecuting whites and refusing to prosecute blacks. The Democrats certainly didn’t want any attention paid to that so they organized this circus. I guess John Conyers was left out of the loop when he tried to end it.
Come on people get a grip, Congress is a joke and Colbert’s testimony was hilarious. It was a slap in the face of those pompous windbags and they deserved every bit of it.
