TCR-ABC.jpg Colbert exposes The Path for what it is; the 9/11 Commission Report + Mad Libs. Using his trademark conservative shtick, Colbert tears apart the hypocrisy and lies behind the GOP propaganda myth. "According to several reliable fictional accounts, and I saw one on ABC just last night, your President let bin Laden go; back when it was important to catch him. Not like after the attacks." Colbert lets Macaca have it after trying to steal credit for Senator Durbin's veterans bill by changing one word and pawning it off as his own.

I think we can expect to see some frantic legislating before the elections. Besides Karl Roves plan to pressure top lawmakers into agreeing on anti-American secret military tribunals, opportunists in Congress will be scrambling to dress up their unconscionable rubber-stamping of Bush's disastrous policies. If the Ministry of Truth can keep 43% of Americans believing Saddam had something to with 9/11, I wouldn't be surprised to if they can pull this one off.
