I wish they didn't speak in the left/right paradigm, but other than that, pretty funny stuff.

lol, ya know, Colbert is a comedian and obviously very left leaning but there have been times when he has said things that do seem very sincere. To be honest, figuring out Colbert's real views are fairly difficult tell you the truth, unlike John Stewart.

YouTube - Very Very Stupid Americans (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnFb1RpK5Qw&feature=related)You go to any city in the world and interview people randomly and you will never run out of stupid people. The US is not unique in that respect, but it is more gratifying to see stupid Americans since we are the bullies in the world.
