My point is that saying that the NYT supported the war doesn't make it a conservative paper. What's YOUR point?


because the NYT are the ones ho legitimised those lies, even when they were totally transparent.

It was only a weather baloon that flew into a flocks of ducks that confused all them librals into thinking that the funniest and bravest thing they have ever seen was happening right in front of their eyes, and distracted us from the true hero of the Press association roast.

You forgot to add how right after the show, a bunch of white guys in black suits and sun-glasses knocked Cobert on the head, stuffed him into the trunk of a unlicenced black car, which sped off from the scean and we have'nt seen him since.......

...and the vast sigh of relief that came from the audiance afterwards too, I should add.

Can anyone please tell me why half-wit foreigners, with zero contact with the political climate of the U.S., and no first-hand knowledge of the events described continue to blather on about what the American public does and does not respond to?

Actually I was thinking of starting a "Did Colbert Plan 911" thread until HoratiosDream threatened to "take me on a little trip to the vets to calm me down"



hey now, if you actually believed that, you must be off your comedy game.

now come with me to meet the nice man in the white coat. >.>

Thanks for pointing that out, Wendy. "Brave" is not spelled "P-u-b-l-i-c-i-t-y S-t-u-n-t." Doing something you know is going to get worldwide internet attention and whip your teenage fans into a frenzy of support is not "brave": It's simply good marketing.

As far as "funny"? Protracted periods of silence following jokes based on stereotypes we've heard a thousand times over is not funny. Mitch Hedberg is funny- that was not.

The Salon assessment is a good one, a review that shows why what Colbert did is sparking such discussion: because it isn't something we see done, anymore.

There's no shortage of jokes at the President's expense, and most of them revolve around the same issues (as they should). In this, there was nothing particularly groundbreaking about what Colbert did. He popped off some clever - and some very clever - zingers, but didn't trod new ground with his jokes.

What made it great was that he took these jokes and spit them out right in the faces of the people who were the subject of the jokes, rubbing their noses in their stink in the middle of their buddy-buddy tea party. He openly mocked them while they were busy playing dress up, right after the president "mocked himself"... with a knowing wink and a smile to the people whose job description is, supposedly, "tear the powers that be a new asshole when they fuck up".

2/3rds of the country think Bush is doing a shit job as president. We say it, but Colbert said it to his face. A huge chunk of the country thinks the press corps is a joke. We say it, but Colbert said it to their faces. They were playing their little game, and Colbert had the gall (by which I mean balls) to eat their dice and shit them out on the spinner.

Of course they didn't laugh. Why the fuck would you expect them to?

I don't think you are going to get much disagreement on this.
