Colbert on Immigration

Via Greg Mankiw, this is good. Includes the great line "Because my great-grandfather did not travel 4,000 miles of the Atlantic ocean to see this country overrun by immigrants. He did it because he killed a man back in Ireland. That's the rumour..I don't know if that is true...I'd like that stricken from the record".

Some of the committee members were distinctly unamused. I heard that "Elmo" has also given testimony on a previous occasion.
I wonder would a Dail Committee invite Bottler to give testimony?

Kevin, that's no way to refer to An Taoiseach.

With moderator hat on, I will point out that Kevin was most likely referring to the comic character Bottler created by Brendan Grace.

Most likely,yes.
