Colbert is my hero.

Okay, off the top of my head, I came up with seven, and within five more minutes I had two more. That's nine out of ten. And I'm not trying to legislate their display on courthouse walls.

He missed the all-time perfect opportunity to say, "I don't know, and that's why I want them displayed - so people can know them and learn them."

I saw that and nearly peed.

I could probably name 8-9 as well, but really if you are going to make it your rallying cry to INSIST the 10Commandments are posted in public buildings, you should know WHY, and learn them.

This guy just lost ALL credibility. He might as well have been petitioning to have the Chinese alphabet posted as a boarder around the room. He cant reason that either.

That's wonderful!

Aside from the obvious...

Colburn: "Can you think of any better building to display the commandments than a public building?"

Westmoreland: "No"

Well, um, how about a church of any Abrahamic religion?

Yes indeed!

Wow, not too good on the fly. He must have a lot of money.
