Steve King protests too much

Steve King, the Iowa Republican, is not a happy camper (see TPM). Stephen Colbert is the cause, the Megyn Kelly is King’s enabler. And buried within this clip is something the anti-immigrant right needs to address: The notion that illegals are taking American jobs, as if Americans are clamouring to work the fields and clean toilets.

What Colbert did was unmask the GOP by wearing his mask. It was a stellar performance, when you get down to it.

The joke is on Congress — or is it, ‘the joke is Congress’?

Stephen Colbert testifies before Congress. In character. And the Republicans just don’t get it, nor do many of the Democrats. Crazy stuff — funny like Tom Toles is funny.

This is way too funny. Few guests get Colbert, but Nation editor Katrina VandenHeuvel gets it and gives the Colbert Nation a run for his money.
