It’s a combination that eclipses chocolate & peanut butter, warm apple pie & coffee, and Gore/Obama ‘08. Ladies and gentleman, Maureen Dowd and Stephen Colbert do the Sunday New York Times. Together.

Dowd: I called Colbert with a dare: if he thought it was so easy to be a Times Op-Ed pundit, he should try it. He came right over….I just hope he leaves at some point. He’s typing and drinking and threatening to “shave Paul Krugman with a broken bottle.”

Colbert: And Fred Thompson. In my opinion “Law & Order” never sufficiently explained why the Manhattan D.A. had an accent like an Appalachian catfish wrestler.
