I welcome it ... sometimes debates get started as a result of jokes.

The Fed fartcatcher Leonhardt talking about how there hasn't been inflation ... unfrotunately neither Colbert nor Paul nailed him on CPI, as housing is not measured in the CPI and food prices have definitely increased while the CPI has been heartily manipulated ...
