Of Course West Philly's Congressman Sides With Stephen Colbert

For those of you who don't plan your schedules around a permanent date with Stephen Colbert at 11:30 each night, you may not be aware that Colbert fans recently stormed a NASA poll about what to name a new area of the international space station, tilting the results decidedly in favor of naming the room for Colbert.  NASA balked, claiming the poll wasn't binding.  And now a U.S. Representative has stepped in to back Colbert.  And wouldn't you know it?  It's the congressman for Penn's district, Chaka Fattah.  He would.  Fattah sits on the House subcomittee that oversees NASA's funding.  (Hey, we wonder if he rubbed elbows with Colbert when he was on campus during the primaries.)  Your tax dollars at work, people!  We'll post the clip from tonight's show once it's available.
