Colbert calls out Oregon's 3rd District

In his intro to his review of Virginia's 11th District, Stephen Colbert talks about his "favorite district". And it's not Oregon's 3rd -- represented by Earl Blumenauer.

    Works fine for me and I use Firefox. Try reinstalling or installing a new Adobe Flash plugin.

    I want Colbert to get his sorry butt out to Oregon and say that to our faces. I challenge him...

    Ok, ya'll do remember that Colbert is a satirist and for him to say what he did about the 3rd is actually his way of giving a thumbs up right?

    Colbert also "did the 5th" with Darlene Hooley awhile back. He left her red faced and giggling.
    Personally, I think it would be great for Colbert to come to Oregon and participate in a bit of a role reversal with both Hooley and Blumenauer.
