The Long War

I was not a huge fan of "The Colbert Report" when it first got started. But it might not be fair to assume that a show will hit its stride right away. There have definitely been more and more funny segments and interviews as the show has moved on. A major step in the right direction is that Colbert has started laughing at himself on air.

Colbert recently did a segment on the Bush Administration's re-branding of the failing war in Iraq. This is wonderful satire, that entertains and provokes on par with "The Daily Show" at its best.

Watch The Long War.
