Colbert's Credit Card Pre-Approved For Its Own Credit Card

"Being in a financial hole is as American as borrowing apple pie." Colbert took on credit card reform last night. Here's the clip. The best part is where his credit card is approved for its own credit card.

It would have been better if the credit card's card had two sets of numbers on it. But maybe I'm just being critical.

@Matt Palmer: Not really. If I remember right, we're capable of digesting more stuff than our dogs.

Heck, quality control and managers at dog food plants have been 'testing' their products for years...

@3drage: at least the interest on those is tax deductible.

@aishel: The musical accompaniment with it was perfection, however.

@veg-o-matic: Maybe I just watch too much CSI, but cant eating dogfood cause internal bleeding in humans because it can contain things we can't digest?

@aishel: Pfft, snakes aren't that gross, they eat their prey whole. Lions and other large predators are gross. They rip out guts and suchlike.

Snakes are just unsettling. HOW DO THEY STRETCH SO?

Colbert is awesome. I loved how when he used the monocle thing he was clearly reading with his left eye from a screen somewhere. Now those are some skills.

@veg-o-matic: zurr.. *between* pate and dogfood.

More newsworthy was the fact that most people can't tell the difference paté and dog food.

Come on, Consumerist, if I can't rely on you to advocate for the mid- to high-end pate consumers, just who the hell can I count on?!?

"I can afford to be taken advantage of, it's the poor people who can't that ruin it for the rest of us."

His satire always gives me a good chuckle.
