In case you missed Col­bert’s trip to the war zone, here’s a fun­ny clip.

You can find the link to this video and more here.

From last night’s White House Cor­re­spon­dents’ Din­ner. (Also get Wan­da Sykes’ standup appear­ance here. Rather fun­ny.)

These clips come from CSPAN’s YouTube Chan­nel, which is includ­ed in our Intel­li­gent YouTube Video Col­lec­tion

Here’s Jon Stew­art talk­ing Mon­day night about the rev­e­la­tion that Amer­i­ca’s “extreme inter­ro­ga­tion” tech­niques actu­al­ly amount to tor­ture. Some­how he man­ages to work The New York Review of Books, The Paris Review, McSweeney’s and The Utne Read­er into the dis­cus­sion. You’ll find it about 4 min­utes in. Pret­ty fun­ny stuff, although the com­men­tary is sad when you get right down to it.

On a more seri­ous note, Rahm Emanuel (high­light­ed in the video above) was almost cer­tain­ly ref­er­enc­ing excel­lent Mark Dan­ner’s work in the NYRB, which you can find here.
