a coup d'moi

ok, so maureen dowd of the nytimes challenged stephen colbert to write her sunday op-ed piece, since he thinks that it looks so easy......this piece is worth your time.....my favorite passage, in which colbert is musing on the current crop of presidential candidates.....Well, suddenly an option is looming on the horizon. And I don’t mean Al Gore (though he’s a world-class loomer). First of all, I don’t think Nobel Prizes should go to people I was seated next to at the Emmys. Second, winning the Nobel Prize does not automatically qualify you to be commander in chief. I think George Bush has proved definitively that to be president, you don’t need to care about science, literature or peace...........
