Is Stephen Colbert Swedish?

Barack Obama, announced he will not be deporting illegal immigrants, brought here as children who have a high school diploma and no criminal record. Oh, great. Now the doors are wide open for people who are already here. Obama does already have a great reputation among Latino voters with quite an impressive lead in the polls. Plus even among GOP circles, it is being called the right thing to do. Stephen however thinks he is pandering and yes, even trying to get re-elected. Just look at that burro the Democrats use for their party. Stephen suggests that if you hit it, candy and free health care will fall out. If Mitt Romney were the president, he would veto the Dream Act and fully expect that people would simply self-deport. (Didn't they do that in Star Trek once? No. Maybe I'm thinking of something else. Never mind.)

Full disclosure: Stephen is a member of the White House Press Corps Reserves and he can heckle with the best of them. That would be Neil Munro who heckled the president and was called out on it by no less than Papa Bear Bill O'Reilly, Chris Wallace and Don Lemon.

Stephen has the best audience in the world. That's a fact because Stephen said it. And they need to help Stephen with the ongoing diplomatic talks with Sweden. Stephen can speak Swedish fluently and he likes to Tweet. Therefore, everyone should go to Colbert Nation and help him get his rightful chance to  be the official Tweeter for a Week for Sweden. It is sort of up in the air now as to whether he will be able to claim his chance. Here is what Sweden has said about this topic.

"People who are not Swedish citizens cannot take over the account, no yet anyway...we have a very long list already. Colbert will have to wait."

Here's the thing. Already Stephen has given Sweden's Twitter Account the famous Colbert Bump. Heck, tourism will probably double in the next year for Sweden just because of him. Well, stay tuned. Hopefully Sweden will see the light and give Stephen the account for a week.

Paul Krugman was the guest and had lots and lots of interesting things to say. He does have a book out also. "End This Depression Now." He also has written many other books and has a whole bunch of awards. An interesting tidbit that he talked about. You often hear politicians claim that government doesn't create jobs. Ha! Tell that to fire fighters, police officers, and teachers. Krugman said that if we rehired laid off workers from those thee groups, we would be a long way towards ending this depression. He also talked about Ireland, with 14% unemployment. He called Ireland Romney's Economics in practice. Something to think about if we care about our economy.
