Steven COLBERT in Space

Whatever the Colbert Nation wants, that usually get, and having Colbert’s name out in space was no exception.  After losing a vote to name one of NASA’s space modules, a peaceful compromise was executed on his show before the space station was to be invaded and then immediately burned to te ground.

The decision, announced by Astronaut Sunita Williams on the show on Tuesday, brought a frosty response from the audience.

“Your name will be in space” she told the comic. “We have come up with something that will be in Node 3: the Combined Operational Load Bearing External Resistance Treadmill (COLBERT).

“Every day somebody will have to jump on the COLBERT to work out. So that will be the words that will be passed down from space to ground ‘It’s time for me to jump on Colbert’.”

Yes, America, we as the people are willing to come together to feed the ego of one hilarious television personality, but we can barely do something as much as work to get a small section of a street repaved.  That just goes to show you something–everything needs a catch phrase.
