"The Rummy Returns" (lawlz): Old Donald Rumsfeld was called in for questioning about the Pat Tillman case. It was strange... I had a fleeting thought of, "I thought Rummy was dead" when he popped up on screen. I have no idea why that happened. Maybe I subconsciously put Rumsfeld on my mental Colbert Report-inspired "Dead to Me" list when he left. Anyway, the old man is still on his game, beautifully denying things left and right. He's got it down to a science, all right. By the way, I wonder how he feels about Comedy Central's Lil' Bush, in which Iggy Pop voices Lil' Rummy. I'd be pretty excited if someone like Iggy Pop played a cartoon take on me, even if it was for satirical purposes.DonaldRumsfeld-related stories

Stephen Colbert at the White House
I tuned in to watch Stephen Colbert provide the entertainment at the White House
Correspondents' Association dinner (Fun Fact:
Teenage fangirls will watch C-SPAN for hot fake-pundits). Colbert looked just as handsome as ever, and his wife looked
beautiful (there go my chances of stealing the man away). When President Bush and Laura Bush walked in, Colbert was
already situated at the head table (just five seats away from Bush and right next to Helen Thomas!) but stood up to
shake hands. I couldn't help but wonder if Bush had ever seen The Colbert Report before, but I guess he knows
about the jokes, because Bush gave Colbert a knowing look while greeting him.
