Hey here is something about that thing everyone is pretending to be very excited about today: Rep. John Conyers was just cold being an asshole to Stephen Colbert, the television comic who wasinvitedto testify on this agriculture issue specifically because it would get some attention for a "dry" subject (the field slavery of Mexicans).
If Mr. Colbert wanted to be taken seriously by the Republican members of Congress, he should have put his birth certificate into a Baggie and waved it in front of their faces.
Or prior to taking his seat donned a tri-corner hat.
I stole this from a post on News Hounds. Why can't the Democrats invite serious people to testify, like these folks the Republicans have invited to be witnesses:
Pat Boone Jon Voight Janine Turner Maria Conchita Alonso Danny Bonaduce Chuck Norris Ted Nugent Omarosa Jackie Mason Kirk Cameron Stephen Baldwin Victoria Jackson Vincent Curatola
More from News Hounds: Didn't the GNoP invite Elmo to testify? And the novelist (some really good, some amazingly bad) Michael Creighton (did I spell that correctly? Too hungover to look it up) about man-made climate change?
Why wasn't Al Franken doing the questioning?
This is the long-awaited return of "Even Stepvhen."
