    Colbert rocks.
    Liberty is the possibility of doubting, of making a mistake,... of searching and experimenting,... of saying No to any authority - literary, artistic, philosophical, religious, social, and even political. ~Ignazio Silone, The God That Failed, 1950

    I attempted to find those clips on YouTube but couldn't.

    Did those links that AnonKat put up work for you?
