Colbert, I can't believe I'm saying this, would be able to get America to the leave Japan is -- #1.

[bruckner26]

I can't believe the American people chose G.W. Bush over this guy. Absolutely appalling..

[PartyWithChumpsky]

It is amazing that Kerry has been in politics so long.

He is the lowest form of slime.

He was only in Vietnam for 4 months on a medal mining mission.

He threw someone else's medals over the White House fence.

He committed perjury in front of a Congressional Committee wearing fatigues.

Now he is a pompous ass.

No one should even give him the time of day.

[antivert]

PartyWithChumpsky: well, we can all forgive for past mistakes. It's important to listen to people for what they have to say in the present moment.

[gijoezorad]

if you went to war and realized that it was wrong for you to be there, wouldn't you leave? kerry wouldn't be my first choice for president, but almost anyone would be better than bush. he has been CATASTROPHIC for this country. its really sick what he has done and what he has allowed to happen in this country and around the world.

[zagonde]

i'd rather die

[putittogether]

he environment is an important issue. But nothing of tax's (1/2 your life!!!!! u work for the gov. 1/2!!!!) Why did we flourish from 1776 to 1900? with so little tax's. 1900 to 1940 very little tax!!!!! Family time!!! vacation time!!!! Time to live your life!! Its called FREEDOM. No questions about the Military Industrial complex, (1/4 of your life u work for the generals). Nothing but a typical lap dog interview.

[LoTRMagic]

That was awesome seeing Colbert out of character! It was really cool of him to let you film.

[loverofthetruth]

need to see part 2

[Ender1zero1]

Thanks for the backstage look, really decent ofColbert to let you film.

[maralenenok2]

Wonderful interview, and particular thanks for getting backstage footage of Colbert! I was curious about what he tells his guests.

[zagonde]

next time, tell the senator to wear his seatbelt!

[justinsuperstar]

Haha, there's a scandal right there!

[lovefool]

backstage really is that small!

[alphahooker]

Josh nice to see you're part of the Nation

[blogswarm]

Great job Josh, I really enjoyed this.

[factusnonverbus]

So Colbert does warn some guests what he's up to. Good that Kerry seemed to know already anyway, it's really sad how many of Colbert's guests probably need the briefing because they're so out of touch.

[TexDem]

That some are briefed and are still clueless is sad. And most of them are from the right, although I have seen a few others not quite get it.

[factusnonverbus]

We don't know if he briefs them all. I wouldn't blame him for only briefing people he likes. Hardly the worst trick a pundit would ever play.

[TexDem]

That's even funnier. Getting what they deserve because they are so out of touch.

[sjtarch]

Great job Josh! Back stage w/ Stephen... awesome!!!

[volumptuous]

Nice one Josh!

Been really enjoying the video segments, and I can't believe you got backstage Colbert access!

[virgohobbs]

Thanks Josh!  You are my hero.

[justinsuperstar]

Big kudos to Colbert for being cool about the camera! Big kudos to Josh for getting this awesome interview.
