colbert asked to form a pac, political action committee. i am in support of this. colbert let the lawyer do the talking before the commission. once outside he delivers the news to fans. moments ago, the federal election commission made their ruling, ladies and gentlemen, i am sorry to say, we won! i am a super pac andndo can you. he s semiserious about this. making a point, obviously. he told the crowd i don t accept the status quo while brandishing a portable credit card processing machine, i do accept visa mastercard and american express. no personal checks. i appreciate his humor. a couple of sports news items now. first, the nba, a lockout has officially started. the contract between owners and players expired at midnight with the two sides very far apart.
