Hannity’s ‘Tree of Liberty’ bears bogus fruit

I thought Republican charges that Barack Obama is a “socialist” couldn’t get any goofier.

Stephen Colbert “Interviews” An All Too Typical GOP Politician

If anyone didn’t catch Comedy Central’s Colbert Report last night, you missed a classic “interview”. Stephen Colbert interviewed what today sadly passes for a typical GOP politician.

The last part of the interview where they discuss the Ten Commandments is absolutely hilarious! You’ll love how this idiot answers both of Stephen’s questions. And yet, some Americans actually continue to vote for these people. Simply amazing…
