    Thank you Mr. Colbert. You are a bright light in what seems to be an increasingly dark world. "Best guac Ever" made me fall off the sofa! Thanks again!

    The White House should sell those things in the gift shop or something.

    Something tells me the White House expects people to take those little card holders.

    C'mon Colbert, people feed the gators at Carolina Bay in Charleston. They're no 400lb behemoths. Not yet, anyway.

    Dear Mr. Colbert, could you please post some videos of your band performing to youtube? From the audience reactions, all us video viewers are missing out on some class music.!

    I agree about the ties; they look incredibly informal without them. However, there is a uniformity about everyone not wearing one (I include Colbert when I say this), but geez, ties just naturally go with a suit! A toughie. Not sure why Biden was going for an incredibly non-dapper look for everyone.
