Dorgan: Take This Job and Ship It

Senator Byron Dorgan (D-ND) joined Stephen in the Colbert Nation Wednesday night to discuss his new book, Take This Job And Ship It: How Corporate Greed And Brain-Dead Politics Are Selling Out America.

Dorgan is concerned about the implications of that shift in employment status and stability for the standard of living in the U.S.
