Episode Quotes
 
Stephen Colbert: Tonight, Harriet Myers under siege, I'll tell you why you don't change cronies mid-stream. Plus, they say that giving is it's own reward, but what's in it for you? With Katrina in New Orleans and Wilma in Key West, are we in dange of losing all of America's great drinking cities. And later tonight, Lou Dobbs of Lou Dobbs Tonight (stuttering) which aired earlier tonight. Did I get that right? Gonna jump down, turn around, pick a bale of truth, this is the Colbert Report.
 
Stephen Colbert: (to Lou Dobbs) What were the go-go 80's like at CNN? Was everybody just doing Blow all the time?
