Hey all,
Stephen Colbert, my favorite faux-pundit, is in Iraq all this week as part of his USO tour, and is filming his show, The Colbert Report, for four days there, to be broadcast on the Comedy Central cable channel at 11:30pm, eastern time, Monday, June 8 - Thursday, June 11, with replays the next night at 8:30pm. For those of you who don't have Tivo, a VCR, or cable, the videos are available the next day online at http://www.colbertnation.com/home under "video clips" or "full episodes". This man is dedicated. He's already agreed to a buzz cut of his wavy news-anchor perfect hair.

It's go time Nation! "The Colbert Report" has deployed to Iraq on a USO tour entitled "Operation Iraqi Stephen: Going Commando" and will tape and perform shows in front of the troops. "The Colbert Report" is the first TV show in USO history to produce a week of shows in a combat zone. In addition, Colbert will post updates from base on Twitter at http://twitter.com/stephenathome. "The USO counts this as military service, right? I might want to run for office some day," Colbert said.
In addition, he is the guest editor for Newsweek on newsstands today! (Monday, June 8).
