. . .and then I saw him give Sarah Palin the smack down of a lifetime on his January 18th ep. It was beautiful, man. The man has some outstanding writers. Check his site for the vid.

I never watch Colbert but I caught him last night. Awesome.
[Here’s the clip.](http://www.colbertnation.com/the-colbert-report-videos/371419/january-18-2011/colbert-report--1-18-11-in--60-seconds) The setup was a news anchor (Mika somebody) sorta rolling her eyes/looking bored when reporting on something Palin said.
Colbert ranting about Palin as though he was channeling Mika was brilliant.

“See you in 2012…I’m buying!”
Classic. 🆒
I actually recorded the episode after that bit so I could show it to my husband.
