Remembering the White House Correspondents' Dinner

So, this happened back in April, but I was just refreshing my memory about Stephen Colbert's harsh satire from the White House Correspondents' Dinner. I think he had a lot of guts to say a lot of those pointed jokes, and Stephen Colbert has certainly become a popular critic, like John Stewart, from The Daily Show, and Lewis Black (some of my favorite political comedians). Colbert had a huge internet following after the Dinner, which I didn't realize at the time, but in retrospect I'm not suprised. Here was finally someone standing up to the President and pointing out all the falsehoods, and not being a "yes-man." Colbert has certainly joined the ranks of liberal icons.
