LOL.  Except that the media have NOT played it up.
To the contrary, the so-called liberal media have,
in fact, almost completely ignored it.  Stories about
the correspondents' dinner have focused nearly
exclusively on Bush's turn with the impersonator.

So far, the sole exception has been USA Today,
which quoted Colbert extensively and with relish.

As to Bush being willing to let himself be taken
to task, apparently he was not at all happy with
Colbert.  He glowered through most of the routine,
and he and Laura barely acknowledged Colbert
afterwards, leaving almost immediately with grim
expressions.

Sadly, no.
