Colbert is far above Beck in mental acumen. He's a smart ass no doubt but quick on his feet.
The generals will do the right thing but don't count on Rr pundits and pols to know what the right thing is.
I'm not surprised that BHO would get a cooler reception at WP than Bush did. Hawkish young men are going to regard Geo. W. Bush as the coach who will put them in the game and BHO as the guy who is going to lead a discussion on whether or not this particular game should be played.
