Gets much better in the second half when he presents evidence of Obama's nerdness.

Just to prove my Nerd cred, the answer to Hodgman's 3 questions are:

1. Shai'hulud
2. Thumper
3. Water of Life

Clearly, you should be the president, not that prissy jock.

Check the drunken-wolf-dog stare at 3:47. And then his date's response stare.

I bet he knew 'em all, but didn't want to show it.

Now I know that the press is full of self-important uptight douchebags. The shots of their deadened faces are exactly the same as the ones in the audience when Colbert was the guest speaker a few years ago.

Pretty softball for a roast, but still pretty funny. Set Colbert loose on him next year and hopefully he'll chew the guy up like he did with Bush a few years back.
