So I Guess We Have To Like Meghan McCain Now (Also: Keyboard Cat On Colbert!)

Until her appearance on Colbert last night, I was only moderately aware of John McCain's daughter Meghan. I knew she didn't totally suck, because the evil Laura Ingraham was mean to her and she told her to kiss her ass or something, but I had no idea she was, like, all pro-gay marriage and pro-sex education and surprisingly articulate for a 24-year-old platinum blond Republican heiress! That part of her interview is neat, especially the moment when she realizes she just admitted to being sexually active and says "Oh my god my Dad is going to see this!", but the best part is in the beginning when Stephen calls her out for Twittering about licking his face. Also, added bonus video: Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert lose their shit over KEYBOARD CAT!
