Tonight's the second most impressive party of the year -- after the Inauguration. The White House Correspondents Dinner is the lighthearted even where swords are lowered between press and President and comedy rules. It's also the turning point event where in 2006 Stephen Colbert turned the dial up on his career and irrevocably turned the perception of the Bush Administration (and enabling journalism establishment) way down in emperor-has-no-clothes style.
Here's the guest list. My faves: Sam Jackson and Richard Belzer, and host Wanda Sykes.
Wouldn't you like to be in that room?
