Albert Wynn gets the Colbert treatment
My representative in Congress recently sat down for an interview with Stephen Colbert. It included this highlight:
Colbert: Do you support the NSA wiretap program?
Wynn: I don't support that.
Colbert: Explain why in 2004 the Montgomery Sentinel asked you which superpower you would choose: invisibility or flight. You picked invisibility, saying, "I would use my powers to fight crime by eavesdropping on criminal plots so to thwart them in advance." How is that different than the wiretapping?
Wynn: Superheroes don't require court orders.
Colbert: So you agree that Bush is a super hero. Maybe Bush's super power is just the ability to ignore Congress. You will admit he does it better than anybody else.
Wynn: True, I agree.

I'm still deciding whether to support him or not this election. He's being challenged from with the Democratic party. (In this district, whoever wins the Dem primary is likely to win the seat.)
