Something to Look Forward to When the GOP is Back in Charge

This kind of nonsense won't be happening:

Comedy Central host Stephen Colbert is slated to testify at a congressional hearing Friday on immigration titled “Protecting America’s Harvest,” two sources have told The Daily Caller.

One Republican source said Colbert will be testifying “in character,” the Bill O’Reilly-like muse Colbert uses for his show.

A Judiciary Committee spokeswoman, confirming Colbert would testify, said the hearing matter was a “serious issue . . . this is not a TV stunt.”

Some Republicans have already expressed unhappiness with Colbert witnessing at the hearing, thinking it would make light of a serious issue.

The hearing is before the House Judiciary Committee’s immigration subcommittee.

I don't think you'll see Republican subcommittee chairmen allowing actors to testify on things about which they know nothing.

Democrats just love this kind of stuff. Remember when Meryl Streep was invited to emote all over a committee one time on the Alar apple scare? That hammered the apple industry and turned out to be a complete farce.

Or how about the actresses who played farm wives in some movie and were asked to testify about farm subsidies?

It's time to get the grown-ups back in charge.
