Colbert Gets Serious About Habeas Corpus

Colbert uses his scathing irony to call out on Obama for trying to deny the prisoners at Bagram Air Force Base in Afghanistan the right of habeas corpus. In the same way he used to surreptitiously criticize Bush by agreeing with him, he is now turning it around to criticize Obama by positively associating his policies with Bush's. Sly move, Colbert.


"It's essentially the same stance taken by George Bush with one important difference: Obama makes the kids like it."
