WORST IDEA 9/24/10: Stephen Colbert testifies to Congress in character

Stephen Colbert, who plays a character on his Comedy Central show The Colbert Report testified before Congress as that character. Has our democracy been reduced to having fictional characters advise it? What's next Bugs Bunny on global warming, Dr. House as Surgeon General? Perhaps we can let Duke from G.I. Joe run our military.
