Stephen Colbert may have offered the definitive takedown Monday night of Donald Trump's effort to rewrite history on the whole birther saga.
In a more than 10-minute segment, Colbert repeatedly called Trump a liar without directly saying so, using clips of Trump himself saying "liar" and "world-class liar" and talking in exasperated tones about Trump's bogus birtherism claims in a Friday news conference.
***
Colbert concluded: "You dont get to flog this issue for five years and then act like youre correcting everybody else. Were not crazy. We were there. We all saw you do it. Even the people who support you saw you do it. Its why they support you.

So yes, last night was sweet.
