If you haven't seen Stephen Colbert's speech at the dinner for White House Correspondents, you need to see it. Watch it here.

I saw Mr. Colbert last night on 60 Minutes. They showed part of his interview with the Rep from the Virgin Islands. It was pretty funny.

And the New York Times doesn't even mention Colbert in their write-up of the evening. The AP story, which can be found on the Times web site, mentions him very briefly.

Someone tell me about the liberal bias in the media, again.

It was pretty funny. That said, I think his show is consistently funnier -- his standup was a little off his usual pace. I get the feeling that he felt just a little intimidated.

As to Karen's request, sure: http://www.weeklystandard.com/Content/Public/Articles/000/000/004/143lkblo.asp .

I was wildly impressed. I originally read a transcript of the event put up by a diarist at Kos's site, and one of the comments really stuck with me. "I just hope Colbert's wife isn't a clandestine CIA agent."

Yeah.

I'm not surprised that his voice was a bit fainter than it is on the show and that his timing might have been a trifle off once or twice. Bush deserves to have those things said to his face, but being the one to do so -- oy.
