"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Colbert's Run for White House Stopped Short
"Colbert, the mock conservative pundit whose show regularly features real politicians and political commentators, announced he was running as a Democrat and Republican on October 16. He made a "campaign" stop Sunday in Columbia to receive a key to the city from Mayor Bob Coble, attracting about 1,000 people, mostly University of South Carolina students. Opponents such as Howe argued Colbert would make a mockery of the political process." Oh Please...it is already a mockery...they are just afraid of him making that fact clear in the minds of those who don't get it yet.
