Funny guys Conan O'Brien and Stephen Colbert have been warring over the airwaves over who first discovered and "made" Mike Huckabee, the once obscure former Arkansas governor, into the popular Republican presidential candidate he is today.
Colbert first claimed to have made Huckabee by giving him an appearance on his TV show. O'Brien argued that he made Huckabee by featuring unintentionally funny clips of Huckabee supporter Chuck Norris on his show. Then Jon Stewart got involved, arguing that he made Conan O'Brien — dusting off an old tape in which he interviewed O'Brien on his short-lived talk show from the mid-1990s.
In the sardonic fashion that has earned him plenty of media affection, Huckabee smirkingly called the three "idiots." Now he seems poised to end the argument. His campaign recently released an updated schedule of appearances. Tonight, Huckabee will go back to the place where it all started — The Colbert Report — and, in a fashion Norris would be proud of, end this battle once and for all.
Details:
“Former Arkansas Governor and Presidential Candidate Mike Huckabee will be a guest on Comedy Central’s ‘The Colbert Report’ with host Steven Colbert tonight, Thursday, February 7, 2008, at 11:30 p.m. ET. The show will re-air on Friday, February 8 at 1:30 a.m., 10:30 a.m., 2:30 p.m., 8:30 p.m. ET.”

Huckabee hasn’t got a snowballs chance in hell of becoming President. It is all over for Hucky in this Presidential race, he just ain’t smart enough to know.
Huck = McCain’s mini me
“Here is some video of the ongoing spat.”
LOL... Thanks for that. :-)
Mike is a good man. I am glad he is staying in to get out the word on all the subjects he dominates clearly.
America will be a better place even if one person understands what he is saying.
He’s expanding the message to a new audience, the traditional viewer of Stewart/Colbert/Conan are left-libertarians, he’ll get those viewers to look at conservative positions without the MSM filter.
“Mike is a good man. I am glad he is staying in to get out the word on all the subjects he dominates clearly.”
yes, and Colbert is such a great venue for that (sarc) ...
Squirrel recipes ...
explanations of what the oxymoron “Arkansas ethics” really means ...
more excuses for his tax hike as Arkansas gov ...
And a theological seminar on Jesus’ real relationship to Satan titled: “ brother, distant cousin, or just wacky in-laws?”
You seem like an intelligent person go to Mikes site and look at the issues.

Yesterday, on Mad Money, he stated that it was Cramer who ‘made him’
Amen.
“I am glad he is staying in to get out the word on all the subjects he dominates clearly.”
I’m also glad he’s trying to get us to an open convention. A lot can happen if he succeeds.
