    Colbert? Doesn't that rhyme with Dilbert? And shouldn't that tell you something? ;)

    Total bullshit. I hate when someone makes a joke of presidential elections in such a big way.

    He should stick to his droll show.

    Vladimir Putin. :lol:

    What subject could possibly deserve more relentless mockery than modern politics?

    You're absolutely right. It's not like politics is a joke now or anything. Not with all those statesmen we have in office... :rolleyes:

    I think running in both primaries is a novel idea! :techman:

    This cycle's primary process has been so idiotic with all the changes and scheduling and whatever that it deserves mockery.

    You know what I mean. This is just a distraction that is gonna give him a lot of publicity so he can stay on tv.

    Yeah? So? Why the stick up your ass about this? He ain't hurting anybody, and the entire subject was a sad fucking joke LONG before he came along. Do you honestly think the office and election of POTUS has any remaining dignity to be robbed of?

    He's a chump who doesn't make me laugh. Plus they had a movie on this with Robin Williams. :jayzus:

    And...what? You're bitter about his failure to amuse you? Jesus, man. You've got me telling you to unclench already. That should tell you something.

    The Colbert show is hilarious IMO. I keep waiting for him to break character.

    I don't find him particularly funny at all. Him and six billion other assholes in the world. I just change the fucking channel. :shrug:

    It tells me you're too old to have seen his show or you'd know the "t" is silent.

    Never seen the show but the bits and pieces I caught of him don't impress me. I caught him plugging his book on Good Morning America and that's where I saw how lame and corny he was.

    Colbert's humor is very polarizing. People either love him or hate him.
    He doesn''t appeal to very many people.

    He's at least funnier than Jon Stewart. Not that is saying much.

    I don't love him or hate him. I see what he's trying to do with this manufactured persona, and I just don't find it terribly clever at all.

    Agree...John Stewart was great, but I think the writers aren't as good as they were. I prefer Colbert.
