Agreed completely.
Also, it's not necessarily the "haha" humour of it, but rather that Colbert would actually sieze the opportunity to make a statement, in essence, directly to the president. Few men have both the opportunity and balls to do what he did. |

You would say that, you're an idiot (which I guess in your terms is synonymous with American, but so be it). |

I don't have a problem with the people from the UK, I just have never seen any of them drive on the right side of the road. |

American law states that we have to be unfunny to you, just you. |
