If you hadn’t had the opportunity yet, I urge you to head on over to Big Government to check out the Pigford series unfurling today. I would start with Andrew Breitbart’s anchor piece, jump into this superb piece of investigative journalism by Breitbart, Big Peace editor Peter Schweizer and Gary Hewson, and then keep refreshing. Much more there, much more to come.
As someone who’s not a regular watcher of Stephen Colbert I have to say this clip surprised me. I thought he was supposed to be impersonating Bill O’Reilly. All I saw was Jon Stewart in a better suit and nerd-glasses.

Anyway, in the Comedy Central Dynamic Duo’s usual role of being incurious, knee-jerk protectors of all things Big Fat Federal Government, all you have here is Colbert fulfilling that role with the usual-usual we see from the left. In three words his argument is: race-race-race. Colbert’s not interested in the facts or anyone’s point of view or arguments — unless, of course, they fit his tight little leftist narrative. His idea of satire is thimble deep; if someone says a minority group was oppressed, we must write a check and write it now…
And anyone who disagrees is racially insensitive. LMAO!
The best piece of comedy in this tired clip is by far is the few seconds of Rush Limbaugh who throws the reparations anti-thought right back in the face of the rainbow coalition of left-wing hustlers promoting it. Limbaugh’s spot-on analysis that it was the American Indian who introduced the European to the poison of tobacco, a habit that we’re told is responsible for the deaths of untold millions, is actual satire. Instead of mocking his betters, Colbert should have taken notes during the Limbaugh segment about how bona fide satire can make you think — think things like, “Yeah, where do I sign up for a piece of that casino?”
Well, no thinking necessary in the Stewart/Colbert club. They’re on the government’s side, they back The Man every time, and only a racist could disagree.
