I alluded to this video in an earlier post but wasn't able to embed it. It's the second of two parts in which Colbert tackles the "five basic fear groups" -- the most prominent fears harbored by conservatives and the people who embody them, including Mexicans, gays and muslims. "You are my fears," he said in the first segment, bravely sitting there with "no blast shield between us, not even a sneeze guard. So I'm less protected than lettuce at a salad bar from these guys here." He quickly gets down to it, asking the Latino man "When did you sneak into this country and when are you leaving?" He moves on to the gay man, starting out all business then wilting to his charms. "You're weakening my defenses, I grant you, by being attractive and slim and British." He asks the tree hugger in the group: "Are there gay bears? ... Are you happy about that? You made our bears gay" and wonders why he's so pro-bear. It goes on in that vein. The second part is just as funny. Watch it. No, I mean,
watch it. It's scary out there.
