"I will speak to you in plain, simple English. And that brings us
to tonight's word: 'truthiness.' Now I'm sure some of the 'word
police,' the 'wordinistas' over at Webster's are gonna say, 'hey,
that's not a word.' Well, anyone who knows me knows I'm no fan of
dictionaries or reference books."
"Truthiness is what you want the facts to be, as opposed to what the
facts are. What feels like the right answer as opposed to what reality
will support."
"I don't trust books. They're all fact, no heart. And that's
exactly what's pulling our country apart today. 'Cause face it, folks;
we are a divided nation. Not between Democrats and Republicans, or
Conservatives and liberals, or tops and bottoms. No, we are divided
between those who think with their head, and those who know with their
heart."
"Consider Harriet Miers. If you 'think' about Harriet Miers, of
course her nomination's absurd. But the president didn't say he
'thought' about his selection. He said this:
(video clip of President Bush:) 'I know her heart.'
"Notice how he said nothing about her brain? He didn't have to. He
'feels' the truth about Harriet Miers."
"And what about Iraq? If you 'think' about it, maybe there are a
few missing pieces to the rationale for war. But doesn't taking Saddam
out 'feel' like the right thing?"
- Stephen Colbert
