Santorum: President Obama said he wants everyone to go to college. What a snob!
Colbert: Yeah, what a snob! Obama wants everyone to go to college like he did. Well, excuse me, your highness but some of us weren't handed a ticket to Harvard by being the biracial son of a single mom on food stamps.

work buddy: have you seen the m.i.a. bad girls video?
