Colbert at the WHCD
Tonight is the White House Correspondents Dinner. The last one of the Obama administration.
Larry Wilmore is the keynote speaker tonight. I think he should be good.
But the best in my recent memory is the Stephen Colbert roast of George W. Bush.
Enjoy

For sure, the Colbert roast of Bush at the White House Correspondents Dinner was the BEST of recent times.

Re: Colbert at the WHCD
Was just going through some old WHCD comedians and wow, just watch Bill Maher in 1995. There is no way he could get away with what he said, and it is only 20 years ago.....

Re: Colbert at the WHCD
Thanks for the clips. Great stuff. I love Colbert and used to watch him and Jon every night on comedy central.
For what it's worth, I think with truthiness, Colbert has coined the defining term of our age.
I thought that the President was hilarious last year.
"Being president is tough. I have to fix a broken immigration system, issue veto threats, negotiate with Iran,,,,,,,,,, all while making time to pray five times a day".
We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.
