John McCain to Stephen Colbert: Think I'd Make a Good President?
NewsMax ^ | December 02, 2014 | Greg Richter

"We need somebody who's got experience. You're here for the 'Colbert bump.' Is this a trial balloon to be secretary of defense?" Colbert asked.

"Actually, I was thinking about running for president again. What do you think?" McCain deadpanned.

"You would have the full resources of the 'Colbert Report' at your back in 2016 — if it were still on the air," Colbert shot back.

McCain is as bad as Obama in his crass craving of attention….truly obnoxious. Colbert must be desperate for guests to have this rancid character on his show.

Colbert's show on Comedy Central only has like twelve episodes left. He's leaving it at the end of the year; moving over to CBS to replace Letterman on The Late Show.

How sad that one of his final dozen guests is McCain.

Next year is going to be fun to watch. Colbert was never funny. His shtick was nothing more than imitating O'Reilly.

Dumbasses at CBS are going to croak when they find out that this unfunny dufous is even less funny when abandons fake pundit persona.

I hope QVC gets higher ratings.

I think you would make a good dog catcher John, that’s more your level.

That’s for sure. How Comedy Central can keep that crap show and Stewart, who also is NOT funny, I have no idea. I’d rather watch an hourlong block of the obscene “Brickleberry” than that garbage.

Ah. I see what McCain is doing. He's playing into Colbert's schtick. Pretending to be a Conservative.

Wait. Or did Colbert steal that idea from McCain?

No you would not. You are not even a good Senator. Retire and count your blessings.

Neither is Steve Colbert. That "comedian" has never made me laugh.

I think that question has asked and answered when he ran for president.

Listened to John McCain on FoxNews this morning. Poor old guy finally has been hit with a stroke of dementia.

He was actually sounding conservative, saying they need to stop Obama’s amnesty, saying aid for illegals should be stopped, saying they need to increase border security to curtail the number of illegals flooding in, saying they need to return those children from the childrens’ invasion to their home countries.

WOW!

What happened?

Oh! Guess who is up for Senate reelection in 2016.
