Last night, Stephen Colbert took President Obama to task for not showing enough pizazz in his big Afghanistan strategy speech on Tuesday night. Watch the video below.

"It's almost as if he's not super pumped to put 30,000 more young Americans in harm's way," Colbert said.

Colbert also picked up on a theme being spread by conservative pundits -- that Obama didn't use the word "victory" or "win" in his speech. "How will the troops know what to do if Obama doesn't say win? They might think we should lose or draw!"
