Man, you just gotta love Stephen Colbert. The man serves up steaming hot plates of 'truth' every day. And he'll make you laugh in the process.

Yesterday, he was to entertain the White House Correspondants dinner, which was attended by President Bush. Colbert got up on stage, and gave bush a brutal Truthing, while all Bush could do was sit there and watch. Now that's what I call getting Truthed in the back.

My favorites:

Turning to the war, he declared, "I believe that the government that governs best is a government that governs least, and by these standards we have set up a fabulous government in Iraq."

He advised the crowd, "if anybody needs anything at their tables, speak slowly and clearly into your table numbers and somebody from the N.S.A. will be right over with a cocktail. "

Also lampooning the press, Colbert complained that he was "surrounded by the liberal media who are destroying this country, except for Fox News. Fox believes in presenting both sides of the story - the president's side and the vice president's side."

Those seated near Bush told E&P's Joe Strupp, who was elsewhere in the room, that Bush had quickly turned from an amused guest to an obviously offended target as Colbert's comments brought up his low approval ratings and problems in Iraq.

Burn.
