Does the Stephen Colbert Character Know The Word Mocks Him?

The November 28 episode of The Colbert Report provided a clip with which I could finally answer a subscriber question. I also pose a couple interesting questions at the end for Colbert fans and non-Colbert fans alike

You can see the full November 28 edition of "The Word" from which I took the clip I use in my video on the Comedy Central website at: http://www.comedycentral.com/motherload/index.jhtml?ml_video=78729

I think that Stephen Colbert knows what is going on but the character he is playing usually probably doesn't

Or maybe, it is just comedy, and in that particular clip, he broke the mold just a little for maximum effect.

Stephen also writes the segment known as "the word"

i didn't know he is acting a character i thought he is just trying to be funny as himself, if he were a character he wouldn't use his real name.

@ScabiousGarde That its the biggest of religions.

I know this video is old but someone really had to ask that question? The show is rehearsed lol.

What does "microsoft of christianity" mean exactly? And also on a further note, I don't know you well but I disagree that because you watch "The Colbert Report" doesn't mean you comprehend it. It's like a small child watching "Sixty Miniuts" or something related, or the news. The child may not know what it means, but he's still watching it, iss he not? I don't know if you understand the Colbert Repot because until five miniuts ago, I had only the slightest idea of who you are. No more charecters

@captfoster1 Great analogy. It would be like that "Twilight Zone" episode from the 80's where the guy wakes up one day and everyone is using different words for different things: Cat really means ice cream, flower means pickup truck, etc.

Sorry...lost the point. But anyway: great comments!
