    I think it's great the the Smithsonian went along with his joke and put the potrait in such a fantastic location.

    Four stage strategy from Yes, Minister:
    Stage one we say nothing is going to happen.
    Stage two, we say something may be about to happen, but we should do nothing about it.
    Stage three, we say that maybe we should do something about it, but there's nothing we can do.
    Stage four, we say maybe there was something we could have done, but it's too late now.

    That's hilarious. They've wasted an entire article on Colbert.

    Colbert, who plays a pompous conservative talk-show host on "The Colbert Report" and recently tried to run for president as a Democrat, went to great lengths to persuade Smithsonian Institution officials he was worthy.
    Figures that CNN would think he's a conservative.


    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.
