Hmmm.....

I like the Daily Show a little better.  Colbert has a dry sarcasm to every single thing he does and it gets kind of boring.

Colbert

How did we get along without him on the political scene?  Would Barack be able to withstand and actually feed off of the smear attacks without Colbert and the other political comedy shows?  I wonder?

The jabbering talking heads like Chris Mathews always have Colbert to bring them back down to reality now.  Rev Wright might already be dancing on Barack's political grave by now given the normal tabloid fixation in the mass delusional media "news" cycle.
