A bevy of videos in today’s Undressing the Internet. From Keith Olbermann, to Jon Stewart, to Stephen Colbert, it’s a visually vicious video extravaganza.
Today is brought to you by onegoodmove. Give me a break, this is just the beginning.
Everything that follows is a video. Snazzy.
Rummy’s Vivisection - From The Countdown with Keith Olbermann. Rumsfeld is forced to deny the validity of his own words. Of course, we can thank the greatness that is freedom of speech in America for allowing the person posing the question to not be thrown out.
Strategic Hypocrisy - I know a lot of people, particularly teens and twenty-somethings, use the Daily Show as a main source of news. I can’t say it’s the best place for news, but it’s usually spot on and provides an entertaining news medium for those who normally wouldn’t watch any news show at all. In this clip, Jon Stewart on Bush’s never changing his mind on a stance. *cough*
Mess O’Potamia - An overview of some aspects of the war in Iraq, brought to you by the lovely Jon Stewart.
Stephen Colbert on 60 Minutes - This one, as you might have guessed, is a 60 Minutes clip. A 12:41 minute piece on Stephen Colbert, made ever more relevant because of his recent stint at the White House Correspondent’s Dinner.
White House whaaaaat you say? Well! If you purveyors of the internet and blogosphere have been living under a rock lately, you might have missed this: Stephen Colbert provided the closing speech at this year’s Correspondent’s Dinner.
To see the speech in all its glory:

That’s all for now.
