Fun! Though apparently DC-ers understand the need to shovel sidewalks way better than Fairfax residents.

The Colbert Report: Eliot Spitzer
via hulu.com
Let me tell you something, I don’t care about Eliot Spitzer’s personal life. He is one smart guy and he breaks down exactly what’s wrong with our current economic situation simply and precisely.
He knows what is going on and he knows how to fix it. Watch and be illuminated.
