I didn't know that John Podesta is a board member of Knox College....I gather that Podesta invited Colbert to do the address...

The links to the Editor and Publisher story are all over the place (Huff Post, Americablog), but I just went to the Knox College site and found the full text....great story about his huge family and the station wagon....

2. Interesting.

I thought Knox was kind of a conservative place. This is refreshing.

3. how fun!

Give yourself a treat... make a nice cup of tea, get comfy in front of your computer, and enjoy.

4. My favorite parts:

--him inagining Jesus laughing at Peter when he tries to walk on water and starts sinking

--him describing how his mother used to cram her kids in the station wagon

Now THAT's a commencement speech.

5. That is my school

I am glad he did well there and that they invited him. Knox is a great school and if you have a highschool senior or junior looking for a college I recommend looking there.

On edit I read the speech and it was very funny. Also I looked and saw the Knox Gay group is called the KGB for Knox Gay Bureau. I just had to laugh at that.
