It sounds like he's a really great dad. The real Colbert is a joy to watch in interviews. The fake Colbert is a hilarious pompous dufus of grand proportions.
I watch Comedy Central way more than I watch "real" news. And sometimes I do fail to get a joke. that just means that I am then inspired to look the news up afterwards.
Thanks for posting that. This is actually the first time I've seen Colbert out of character, and I'm a big fan of the character that he is most of the time. This gives a good insight into what's behind the faux Republican on the "Colbare Repore"
It's a shame whenever somebody claims that they're part of a demographic and people lambast them. It reflects the internal strife of our country, and the polarization of our beliefs. We simplify and distill, and suddenly it allows people to completely circumvent thinking for themselves, segregate, and bash others whom they identify as being "seperate" from their political orientation. Calling somebody a "fascist" or a "libtard/republifag" for simply being patron of a political party is idiotic.
@Aeipathy09 dont bother. the very thing you're arguing against if the very thing that drives their world. without it they are less of a person, perhaps not much of one at all. dont bother, they're not worth it.
It's about time people realize that not all democrat beliefs are stupid and not all republican beliefs are stupid. Steven Colbert is probably a moderate, because he has both Republicans and Democrats convinced that he is on "There side".
@DanielDuChateau Lol are you serious?He clearly plays an unflattering caricature of the Jesus loving, right wing Fox news anchor: Bill O'reilly. I don't think anyone is saying that his show is not a parody, and in this interview he stated he portrays a character with an opposing view to his actual beliefs and ideals.
@WiseMosquito I'm definitely not trying to argue. Obviously he's a satirical comic who's making fun of the far right. There's a difference between for the far right though and agreeing with everything democrats say.
Only an idiot would dislike Colbert. Maybe he confuses some people, but after two or more shows, if you don't "get" it, you should only watch with smarter people. Both, The Daily Show and The Colbert Report, may be a bit over your head and you'll need someone to try and explain some things to you. It's okay.
Stephen Colbert is possibly the funniest guy on TV. The "Colbert Report" is a total riot! I love the way he sticks it to some people who really have it coming in such a sly, sarcastic way.
The show is a joke show just like the daily show. It has no educational value but dumb kids will argue the politics they see on there thinking there "informed". No wonder we have a community organizer for president
@dieseldudee Well done for the spelling fail in a comment bitching about educational value. It's either a really meta attempt at irony or you shot yourself in the foot.
@VikTalks Yeah, dude, and it's really odd when you find them. My older brother and sister-in-law are super hardcore Xian conservative Republicans and they used to rave about Colbert, saying "FINALLY a show on Comedy Central that WE can watch b/c it's on our side!" I didn't have the heart to tell them. Truly, satire is lost on the stupid.
@BombKrueger that was the most fucking profound youtube comment i have ever read in my life. and i want you to know, and i mean this honestly, i sat here for about 10 minutes thinking about what you said. and you have actually changed my life with your comment. jesus christ.
It's funny yeah, I use to watch the "real news", but after seeing some person like Stewart or Colbert I realized and still see how stupid real news is. When you look at the things around us, some times you can't help but see how dumb you have to be to believe.
@yhallotharlol Exactly. Plus, his ability to deliver the performance is on an exceptionally high level. Not anyone can roll with the punches like he does and be cleverly satirical while staying in character.
It's a sign of your intelligence, the ability to understand Satire. When adults actually think Colbert is a bible thumping republican, and you don't realize he's satirical... you're stupid.
in any other conversations regarding current events other than what has been discussed on these shows. And evenmoreso - when you discuss these topics with them, their knowledge is soooo shallow. It doesn't go past the depths of the witty one liners that Colbert and Stewarts writers have puked out. So ya - that is why I don't like them.
@doyleadd You say you dislike Colbert but you sound more like you dislike people who mindlessly watch the show without getting it. That's not his fault if some people in his audience don't get it. Colbert is a satirical genius and he is a smart man. Just because you've known people who "puke out" witty one-liners from the show doesn't take away from how good the show is. I respect your right to dislike the show, more power to you, but I just feel like your reasoning isn't that solid.
@doyleadd The problem with you is that you have a superiority complex and that you think you're smarter and better than everyone else just because other teenagers your age didn't watch CNN and Fox as much as you did. People understand the jokes from the show, you just don't have a sense of humor. Why don't you bring yourself back down to earth?
Colbert mentioned it in this interview - that people *must* get their news somewhere else because then they wouldnt get the jokes. But thats just the point. People dont actually get their jokes - but they laugh because they know they are supposed to. They trick their own minds into thinking they get it. I mean, I hear jokes about politicians that I dont even get and I'm the only one my age that I know pays attention! I know that this is true because the people who watch these shows can't engage
Even today - the majority of people I know would slap the remote out of my hand if I left the channel on something informative. They would rather watch the Jersey Shore. BUT - they will all watch Colbert and Stewart. And I figured out why - its because all the friggin airheads I know watch the shows because they want to feel better about themselves. Even though the majority of them are just slugs - laughing at these shows make them FEEL knowledgeable and informed. BUT YOU ARENT
I'll explain why I don't like Colber or Stewart. I was in the extreme minority as a teenager who actually had a genuine interest in real world politics. For entertainment, I watched the news - on both sides. I didn't define myself as right or left. In fact, I was blind to the different prejudice of each channel. But I was severly out of the loop with all the crap going on with The Real World and whatever the devil it was kids paid attention to.
@doyleadd no you dont like colbert because you agree with colbert. your reality was probably smashed when you watched this video and learned your favorite news anchor is a lie.
@doyleadd sorry i didn't get it all. i forgot to mention colbert is smart. he is a comedic genius. he really can say terrible things and people laugh because they know its not a real thought. go watch dane cook or some shit cause its on your level sorry colbert confused you.
@ProffesorChaosesFile also colbert is not that difficult to get you are fooling yourself into thinking you are elite for enjoying or "getting" his childish brand of humor that is based in satire and allegory two of the oldest and simplest forms of comedy. not saying his show should be condemned or anything its fine but you guys need to chill on the talk of colbert being a genius or a prodigy he has a show ripped off of a sketch on another show.
@ljjvl Please indicate to me where I stated it was hard to understand Colbert's comedy. You only assume that was what I said, because you assume that I think you are smart. I think you must be Bill fucking O'Reilly or some shit, because your personal vendetta against the viewers of Stewart and Colbert resembles his argument greatly. I am a teenager who has never viewed a moment of the Jersey Shore, but you probably would equate one of my favorite media sources, NPR, to the Jersey Shore.
@ProffesorChaosesFile calm down little guy youve gotten so upset that you have posted a comment that makes no sense. breath everything will be ok. you will learn how to communicate with time. and i like jon stewart, so if that helps
@doyleadd Fair enough to not like him, I know a lot of people here are giving you crap for that. End of the day tho he's a very successful satirist maybe the most prolific one out there. Hell he got invited to the Bush press banquet to speak because they hadn't realized it was a character, that's impressive.
@tnekkc Your right. Jumping to a conclusion is the same thing as trying to dismiss everything someone you don't like says as un-true by pointing out their perceived bias. ("liberal" or "conservative") What does true and un-true have to do with "left" and "right" or "liberal" and "conservative" again? Nothing. Only for people without enough education to know true and un-true has NOTHING to do with bias. Sorry.
You can lead a miserable and poor life with liberals making your decision for you, or you can lead a life that is the result of your own initiative, made possible by conservative freedoms.
Colbert does not lie, he is sarcastic about the conservative point of view he is expressing when in character.
Ok, if you want to wait in long lines for essentials.
@tnekkc Thank you for perfectly demonstrating why so few U.S. Conservatives have passed even community college level American Gov, Civics, Ethics, and logic. Why get an actual education to factually back up what you say when things are true "just because I say so" Right? The best part is your too misinformed and un-educated to know Colbert's character perfectly demonstrates how illogical, misinformed, and bigoted the American Conservative is! LOL :)
@tnekkc Did you intentionally try to derail the argument when you couldn't understand the words? It's ok, pretty common practice among people who don't know what they are talking about. If you can't win, change the subject.
@tnekkc Your initial claim you're trying to reinforce is heavily flawed. You're imply that a liberal is incapable of living a happy life, and that conservatives are happy because they take initiative. Lolwut?
Not only are you biased, but it seems you're tripping over your own words trying to make an argument out of something that isn't really there.
Furthermore your inability to properly interpret even the most basic of arguments has left you looking foolish trying to debate.
@tnekkc LMAO. I doubt you make enough to be heavily taxed anyways.
That quote could not be found in a google search by anybody. Enlighten me, who said that?
You know it's a proven fact that taxing the rich doesn''t produce a vast surplus of jobs? Where were the Jobs when the Bush Tax Cuts were put in place? Where were the jobs then.
Clinton put 23 MILLION PEOPLE TO WORK from taxing wealthier Americans, and we had A SURPLUS DURING HIS PRESIDENCY. Explain that to me please.
@tnekkc How did Clinton try hard to screw the economy? Unfortunately, general statements like that are not taken seriously by ANYBODY unless you can reinforce them with facts. Cite your sources.
Between my nephew and myself, and my wifes side of the family, we collectively own 13% of Google stock.
The stimulus is like bleeding a starving man, so you can feed him his own blood.
It works, but with an efficiency of less than 100%.
It is a net drag on the system.
Liberals can believe whatever. They typically read fiction. Suspended disbelief is a skill needed for the liberal faith. Fantasy based politics. Big gov is always bad, but that doesn't stop liberals from believing in it.
@tnekkc So you're implying we never should have had a stimulus? Ever? None of that $700 billion? What would you have done? How would you have allocated money? Big government is necessary, otherwise you have banks giving loans people can't afford, and in many cases lying about it, and leading to ANOTHER housing bubble.
Small government may have worked in the 1800s and early 1900's.. not anymore. Different times require different laws.
You mixed up parties LOL. Liberals read FACTS. Derp
@TBird4490 That is correct. No war in Iraq. No stimulus. No Obama care. No welfare. No social security. No gun control. No public schools. No food stamps. No jobs program. No global warming propaganda paid for with taxes. No second hand smoke propaganda paid for with taxes. And most of all.... NO BAILOUTS OF BANKS OR CAR COMPANIES If we had more freedom from gov, we would have more prosperity. Everyone would be happier, and black males would not have a felony conviction rate of over 50%.
@tnekkc Wow. I can't believe yous aid that. No stimulus = economy would have been fucked. Your views, and I think everybody else would agree with me, are severely misguided and outright extreme. If we never bailed the banks and Wall Street out, the global economy would have been screwed. Nobody LIKES the banks and Wall street, but it's a fact we would have been screwed.
Nobody is arguing about Iraq lmao. Nobody wants to be there.
@tnekkc Like are you really serious when you say all this? lol. I really need to know. Are you trying to troll? Or are you just so brainwashed that you legitimately believe these things lol.
@tnekkc i would like to suggest that both of you desist from this type of misinformed on both sides arguments. bigge is getting over excited and making some bad statements and tnekkc is just embarrassing himself

@doyleadd Fair enough to not like him, I know a lot of people here are giving you crap for that. End of the day tho he's a very successful satirist maybe the most prolific one out there. Hell he got invited to the Bush press banquet to speak because they hadn't realized it was a character, that's impressive.

Tim Russert was a liberal, but he asked hard questions of the left and the right.
The only tell was that he smiled at liberals, which you can see in this video.

Ever jump to a conclusion before, or is this your first fallacy?
tnekkc 2 months ago
@tnekkc Your right. Jumping to a conclusion is the same thing as trying to dismiss everything someone you don't like says as un-true by pointing out their perceived bias. ("liberal" or "conservative") What does true and un-true have to do with "left" and "right" or "liberal" and "conservative" again? Nothing. Only for people without enough education to know true and un-true has NOTHING to do with bias. Sorry.
bigge525 2 months ago
@bigge525
There is no issue of true or untrue here.
You can lead a miserable and poor life with liberals making your decision for you, or you can lead a life that is the result of your own initiative, made possible by conservative freedoms.
Colbert does not lie, he is sarcastic about the conservative point of view he is expressing when in character.
Ok, if you want to wait in long lines for essentials.

@tnekkc Thank you for perfectly demonstrating why so few U.S. Conservatives have passed even community college level American Gov, Civics, Ethics, and logic. Why get an actual education to factually back up what you say when things are true "just because I say so" Right? The best part is your too misinformed and un-educated to know Colbert's character perfectly demonstrates how illogical, misinformed, and bigoted the American Conservative is! LOL :)

@tnekkc Did you intentionally try to derail the argument when you couldn't understand the words? It's ok, pretty common practice among people who don't know what they are talking about. If you can't win, change the subject.
Tobeh 1 month ago
@tnekkc Your initial claim you're trying to reinforce is heavily flawed. You're imply that a liberal is incapable of living a happy life, and that conservatives are happy because they take initiative. Lolwut?
Not only are you biased, but it seems you're tripping over your own words trying to make an argument out of something that isn't really there.
Furthermore your inability to properly interpret even the most basic of arguments has left you looking foolish trying to debate.

@tnekkc LMAO. I doubt you make enough to be heavily taxed anyways.
That quote could not be found in a google search by anybody. Enlighten me, who said that?
You know it's a proven fact that taxing the rich doesn''t produce a vast surplus of jobs? Where were the Jobs when the Bush Tax Cuts were put in place? Where were the jobs then.
Clinton put 23 MILLION PEOPLE TO WORK from taxing wealthier Americans, and we had A SURPLUS DURING HIS PRESIDENCY. Explain that to me please.

The stimulus is like bleeding a starving man, so you can feed him his own blood.
It works, but with an efficiency of less than 100%.
It is a net drag on the system.
Liberals can believe whatever. They typically read fiction. Suspended disbelief is a skill needed for the liberal faith. Fantasy based politics. Big gov is always bad, but that doesn't stop liberals from believing in it.
tnekkc 1 month ago
@tnekkc So you're implying we never should have had a stimulus? Ever? None of that $700 billion? What would you have done? How would you have allocated money? Big government is necessary, otherwise you have banks giving loans people can't afford, and in many cases lying about it, and leading to ANOTHER housing bubble.
Small government may have worked in the 1800s and early 1900's.. not anymore. Different times require different laws.
You mixed up parties LOL. Liberals read FACTS. Derp

@tnekkc Wow. I can't believe yous aid that. No stimulus = economy would have been fucked. Your views, and I think everybody else would agree with me, are severely misguided and outright extreme. If we never bailed the banks and Wall Street out, the global economy would have been screwed. Nobody LIKES the banks and Wall street, but it's a fact we would have been screwed.
