Stephen Colbert ripped presidential candidate Mitt Romney in a way that we can only hope we'll ever see anyone in the so-called "mainstream media" do with their constant lies about how he was somehow a "job creator" during his time at Bain Capital.

Our own Howie Klein has more on Romney and why this talking point is a joke when Romney pretends that his business experience ever helped to create jobs instead of doing the opposite at his blog -- Is Mitt Romney A Job Creator-- Or A Job Destroyer?.

Can you help us out?
