Did Colbert bomb as bad as Imus 10 years ago?
Wow. Was it that bad? That Stephen Colbert guy reminds me of Bob Saget ... and Bob Saget to me isn't funny at all.
Nope. Instead the guy should be sincerely praised... for having a good haircut [especially if he happens to be bald] or maybe wardrobe.
"Stephen, atleast I've got a day job until 2009."
Out of curiousity, I googled Stephen Colbert and found the transcript of his humorous remarks at the White House Correspondents Dinner with President Bush and the First Lady sitting 20 feet away. First of all, his remarks definitely WERE NOT FUNNY, which is a major failing for a so-called comedian. But much more importantly, he was taking digs at the President in the middle of a war. Has this clown never heard of 9-11 and the War on Terror? I mean this bordered on the treasonous. Belay that, maybe it actually WAS treasonous. Sometimes I think this country has gotten too stinkin tolerant for its own good. We have relatively strong leadership in the current President, but sometimes I wish he had a little more power, if you know what I mean. Would Saddam Hussein have tolerated being insulted by some Iraqi comic right before he invaded Iran? Would Adolph Hitler have sat there on the eve of the invasion of Poland while some comic insulted him and everything he stood for? We need to bring back the tried and true concept of Sedition in this country. Ultra-liberal traitorous fools like Colbert would not have very long careers.
There is a saying "dying is easy, comedy is hard"
Colbert died at the dinner.
