The Colbert Report: The Vetting Process

With Hillary Clinton's nomination to Secretary of State pending the vetting process looking at Bill's international dealings, Stephen sits down with Cliff Sloan, former Clinton administration official, to get vetted for his inevitable appointment to the Obama Cabinet.

The thing you have to realize in this process is that any secret you have may come out at any time.

Did Vitter have a vetter?

Veteran vetter vaunts, "Vapid, vainglorious Vitter's vas deferens viciously varnished vaginas."?

The Colbert Report started out a little rough when it first went on the air, but he just gets better and better as time goes on. Very funny!

Lincoln's Gettysburg Address ~ Nov. 19, 1863

http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0194017.html

....made a really eloquent speech that is worth watching - it was covered by C-Span and is airing tonight; also can be found on their website. Very much worth your time - Ken's speech is only about 15 mins.

Burns draws some very significant parallels between the time of the Civil War and the crises we face in America today.

And, he makes an equally valid comparison between the "skinny lawyer from Illionis" who gave America a new chance in 1863 - with the "skinny lawyer from Illinois" who recently ascended to the same office occupied by Lincoln.

Plus, at the end they have a wonderful Lincoln
"impersonator" who does a great job of delivering the 2-minute long, Gettysburg Address.

Cheney and Gonzalez indicted by a Texas Grand Jury. Can't find it on Huffington Post or Crooks and Liars, but you can find it on Raw Story.

My apologies!! I am so behind!!!

Obama wants Hillary as SOS, so be it.

He's in charge, not Bill, not Hillary.

Give Obama a break.

This from a Nader vote.

Yep. And Janet Reno luvs Obama's choices and that should speak volumes.

Gotta love Colbert. I was expecting him to make it look like he was dropping his pants to get ready for some...anal probing. He did not disappoint. LOL.

what higher honor is there?

so she is healthy

What did Colbert say around 2:58?
Couldn't tell what Colbert was saying besides 220.

What is the bumper music that Colbert plays out of his "The Word" segments; can anyone tell me?
