[MoonRiver]

12. Nobody is safe from Cobert! Nobody who's a suck up pig f'n r/w scum

[CatWoman]

6. SHUT UP, SCHEIFFER!!!

:rofl:

[Orangepeel]

23. I thought that statement was about the character he plays

did he really say that about bush? I was half working/half paying attention

[jane_pippin]

24. He was describing his character on the Report when he said that

wasn't he?

"Well intentioned, poorly informed, elevated status, idiot"

Though, it does describe Georgie fairly accurately too so maybe I misunderstood. :D

[Eric J in MN]

35. No, he was describing the character he plays on "The Colbert Report."

nt

[Pirate Smile]

36. I thought that was his description of his character, not Bush, although

it fits for both, of course.

[nicknameless]

43. "Well-intentioned" ?!!!!!!!!!!!! .... I hope he wasn't describing dimson.

[CatWoman]

10. man oh man

I'll bet Stone Phillips is pissed :rofl:

[rodeodance]

13. He is blowing the Congresscritters away (the ones he interviewed).

[rodeodance]

14. says he purposely lost his Southern accent.

[CatWoman]

16. oh my. the poor guy

lost his dad and 2 brothers to a plane crash when he was only 10 :cry:

[seabeyond]

19. ya.... i love this guy.

adn he is clearly saying he says a bunch of crap. dont want kids to hear him be insincere so doesnt let them watch. i am glad i turned this on

[Pirate Smile]

40. I never knew that. His poor Mom, widowed, lost two kids and left

with nine to raise.

Well, he was the baby and he was 10 so many must have been older but still, it's absolutely horrible.

[Clark2008]

32. Unfortunately, you have to.

While I get petted over in bars up North with my accent, in business, people think I'm "dumb," which means they actually are.

And, what's so funny, is that I don't even have a thick one. I get accused very often of being from "up North," around here, even though I was born and raised in the same city in which I currently live - in Eastern Tennessee.

[rodeodance]

15. How sad -he lost 2 brothers and his dad at age 10 (plane crash).

[eleny]

28. Thank you for the updates...

The show is finally airing here in a few minutes. I can hardly wait and loved your previews! He sounds amazing. Looks like he found his own way to deal with what life dealt him. A new kind of respect, here!

[Libby2]

17. That was a great interview!

[rodeodance]

18. great interview. Nominated

[seabeyond]

20. thanks for starting this thread. made me turn on

so glad i saw it. good guy. me like

[Cha]

21. "The Eagle has Landed"!

What a poignant story Stephen Colbert has..I was getting teary eyed after I laughed so much!

The woman said she was "Indian" and he said "Ghandi or Sitting Bull", OMG!

[Breeze54]

22. My teen son was laughing ...

.. so hard he forgot about eating his dinner!! Too frigging funny!! :rofl:
:)

Q:"Have you ever seen a naked woman?" ...
A: "Yeah!"
Q: "Which movie?"
:rofl:

[MazeRat7]

25. 60min editors did a great job with the supporting video selections

They picked some classics... good for them. They could have been really unfair and picked some of the lamer moments.

Colbert as himself makes for a pretty good interview.

MZr7

[SeveneightyWhoa]

33. Huh, what?

Are you telling me there are lame moments on the Colbert Report? :crazy:

[MazeRat7]

34. There have been a few....yes. But only a few. *grin.

[tanyev]

26. Missed the very beginning...

Thanks to DU, I caught most of it, but did they start off by playing any clips from the correspondent's dinner?


To a congresswoman from Ohio: "What is it about your state that causes its residents to want to flee the earth?"

:rofl:

[Eric J in MN]

37. No, they didn't mention last night's dinner. They probably

finished the piece before the weekend.

[glarius]

27. Terrific...too bad there wasn't time to have something about last night's

performance on the White House Corespondent's dinner.

[eleny]

29. K&R!

[Clark2008]

30. Hmmm.... a Southerner is DU's hero-du-jour.

:7

I'm pleased as punch.

:rofl:

[supernova]

38. Yes, isn't that fascinating

:rofl: :rofl: :D :D :D

[Eric J in MN]

41. Al Gore has gotten plenty of support on DU, too. (nt)

nt

[Clark2008]

46. I'm from and in Tennessee - Al's my first political "crush"

but why is it that so many on DU love Al. Love Wes. Love Bill. Love Jimmy. Love John E. But hate Southerners.

Odd dyslexia, don't you think?

:shrug:

[Pacifist Patriot]

47. One of my favorite lines last night...

had to do with McCain and property in SC. :)

[graywarrior]

31. "I'm a manilla envelope."

[Eric J in MN]

39. Did they say there is an 80 person staff for "The Colbert Report"?

nt

[Pirate Smile]

42. Yes.

[Reverend_Smitty]

44. Dammit I forgot it was on!

So when will this be posted to the web for the absent minded folks?

[Pacifist Patriot]
