I don't know how much occasion I will ever have again to quote "The Colbert Report," but here goes. This is from an interview between Stephen Colbert and gay congressman Barney Frank, as quoted in Houston Voice.

Colbert: "To sum up, you’re left-handed, you’re Jewish. But there is something else about you. And this is sort of the elephant in the room that I’m not naming, but as a journalist I feel like I have to name it. Um, you’re a little overweight."

Frank: "I can honestly say to you whether or not I lose weight is of no concern whatsoever to my wife."
