The truthiness vote is in, and this is one award I can get behind.

Steven Colbert has been named the AP’s Celebrity of the Year and I couldn’t agree more. He is declining interviews because of the writer’s strike, according to the article, but he did say this in an email.

“In receiving this award, I am pleased that I was chosen over two great spinners of fantasy — J.K. Rowling and Al Gore. It is truly an honor to be named the Associated Press’ Celebrity of the Year. Best of all, this makes me the official front-runner for next year’s Drug-Fueled Downward Spiral of the year. P.S. Look for my baby bump this spring!”

Jeez. If he only had gotten on the ballot in South Carolina. Wouldn’t have that been just smashing.
