Boehner Uses Colbert

Sept 27th, 2010


Although I have been thrown to the mattress over my criticism of Stephen Colbert's House Judiciary Committee appearance last week, I stand by my observation that it just didn't work and gave the opposition what I continue to describe as a sideshow.


From FOXNews yesterday:


Rep. John Boehner (R-OH) uses the Colbert moment to embarrass dems.
"Washington is spending more time with comedians than debating (our) economic future," Boehner said, referring to comedian Stephen Colbert's mocking testimony of the House on Friday. "They have time to bring a comedian to Washington, D.C., but they don't have time to end the uncertainty."


The fact that Colbert was morally and politically correct on issues of immigration (seperate from the W tax cuts altogether) is lost in the drone of the right's attack.
