This behind-the-scenes video of President Obama’s cameo on The Colbert Report is glorious. But it’s also a little disturbing. I find it funny — presumably many do — but if W. had appeared on, say, Rush Limbaugh’s show to do a bit the premise of which was abusing the office of Commander-in-Chief, I would have had a fit. So would much of the rest of the blogosphere. As I said, I like it — but it’s perilous, and I would rather he not buddy-buddy (reference to Palin intended) with liberal humorists.
(OK, who will be first to post that I missed the premise of the humor?)

Why I’m OK with it: It was just “The Colbert Report” it was “The USO Brings You The Colbert Report” and for me, that changes the context entirely.
