Colbert post on MLK Day

"Black people have their own holiday, it's Martin Luther King Day. By the way, for any kids watching at 11:30 at night, Martin Luther King is black and he is real. Don't listen to your older siblings. Everybody knows that if you're good, he comes in once a year while you're sleeping and sprinkles you with dreams. Then he goes back to his mountain top castle on his flying table of brotherhood, saying, 'Merry MLK Day to all and to all good deals on mattresses.'"

Veterans, the founding fathers, dead veterans, Jesus. You can tell we're reaching parity when you see ads for the MLK Mattress Sale.
