Stephen Colbert was not surprised last night to learn where Faisal Shahzad, the man who allegedly attempted to bomb Times Square, came from. “This Faisal character,” he said “came from exactly where you’d expect — Connecticut. When are we going to close that border?”

He added that his worst suspicions were confirmed when he saw a picture of Shahzad. “He’s not just from Connecticut. He’s a Connecticut douche bag.”

Colbert also reported that a “heroic” Times Square sketch artist helped catch Shahzad by putting police on the tail of a “skateboarding tennis player with a giant head.”
