"Best of all, I got
to meet my main man, George W. Bush. I shook his hand -- very soft hands by the
way. I delivered the closing speech. Needless to say the audience could not
contain its excitement [showed footage of the audience looking bored]. Very
respectful silence. The crowd practically carried me out on their shoulders.
Although I wasn't actually ready to leave." --Stephen Colbert, at the
White House Correspondents' dinner
"I'm spending
Saturday night flipping through the C-SPANs. I come across this horribly
frightening image [shows Bush and his
double at the White House Correspondents' dinner] -- the president of
the United States of America, who is now apparently reproducing asexually. The
White House Correspondents' dinner: It's the dinner where the White House Press
Corps and the government consummate their loveless marriage. It's the saddest
thing I've seen in my life: the two Bushes." --Jon Stewart
