On last night’s Colbert Report, Stephen was joined (hilariously!) by Poncho Denews, aka heroic old-school newsman Charlie Skinner from “HBO’s documentary The Newsroom“, aka Sam Waterston to absolutely destroy CBS’ completely bogus and now mildly “corrected”/retracted super-explosive extra-special exclusive on BenghaziGate!!! Nailed it (in two must-watch parts)…
The Daily Show also took on Lara Logan and 60 Minutes’ “Meh Culpa”…and, once again, also deservedly eviscerated Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) along with it. That one follows below…

When it was pointed out that the 60 Minutes story he’d relied upon to block all Obama nominees turned out to be total BS, Senator Lindsey Olin Graham (R-SC) explained:
“I’ve released two of the
hostagesnominees. I’ve released two, dammit!“This 60 Minutes mea culpa caught me by surprise. Ya’ll gotta give a good ol’ boy more time to come up with
a new line of bullshit, ah, another reason before ya’ll ask me to release any morehostagesnominees.”Those guys should get a new TV award “Helping Keep Our Heads On Straight” every year.
Ernest quoting Graham @ 1:
“I’ve released two of the
hostagesnominees.”Exactly what I thought when I first heard it. Pretty amazing. #AtticaAtticaAttica
Brad @3. Great minds think alike!
When I heard that 60 minutes had retracted the story, and the story had disappeared from any discussion on Fox “news”, I actually thought this would be the first time the noise machine would stop telling a big lie for once.
Lindsey Graham proved me wrong. Once the Republicans start telling a story, it lives forever. Taking anything back is just not in their DNA. Saving face until death, even if it hurts everybody in your society IS in their blood.
A simple apology is out of the question. WHY!
