What is this from?

Possibly the most awesome thing Jim Hanson ever did.

Do not listen to this person.  He is not your friend.  He does not have your best interests at heart.  And Jim Henson other did many great things.

I believe you out of order a word have.

Man Colbert has some of the best writers in TV.

"...Gingrich's campaign is on life support after [these primaries]. And as we know, when something Newt is with gets sick he moves on to something else."

It was either Colbert or Stewart (their writers anyway) who made the connection between Gingrich's ads with Pelosi about the Earth being sick and wanting to go live on the Moon.  It's crass, but it's easy.

It's interesting to see how Romney isn't that far behind Obama in total fundraising, given that he is so far behind in cash on hand (7.7 million vs. nearly 100 million IIRC).  He's been spending a lot.

Obama does have several advantages as an incumbent. He does not have to fight off a pack of rabid dogs in the primary, and that costs a lot. Plus all of Obama's existing public appearances as president act as free publicity.

Wtf? Just watched the news. Apparently some Republican (Sanctorum I assume) claimed that over 10% of Dutch deaths every year are because of Euthanasia with half of them being involuntary. Other American news sites than claimed that 'the Dutch' were outraged because of these obviously false statements (in reality 2% of deaths are because of euthanasia and none are involuntary).

Seriously?

Oh sure, that's what you WANT us to believe. (Note: this response can be applied to pretty much ANYTHING anyone ever says to refute an argument, if you're a Republican.)

Yeah, he's starting to get into Yogi Berra territory with his numbers. I'm expecting him to say that being a good President is half physical, half mental and half spiritual.

He also needs another term to fix the economy which was totally not his fault!

Well, are you not outraged at these obviously false statements?
