So Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Oblivion) invited Stephen Colbert to testify before the esteemed House Judiciary Committee, the very body that once brought historic articles of impeachment against Richard Nixon.
And Steny Hoyer (D-Whatever Nancy Says) exclaims that Colbert embarrassed himself.
Our Congresspersons expected what from the erudite Mr. Colbert?
Of course, these same folks said that ObamaCare would make health insurance cheaper and reduce the deficit. We hear that they also expect to retain their congressional majority in the 2010 elections.

Colbert called out the hypocrisy of the left and the right, while invoking some New Testament just for kicks.

Colbert is awesome. Politicians usually don't get him. The wonderful irony is that they thought they could use him for their gain, and what they found out, was that he used them for his own gain (and a little for the benefit of the subject for which he was there).
Nobody likes to be had, or to be shown their foolishness.
