Here, watch this while the News Trolls come up with “actual reporting” for us to make fun of. Why was Stephen Colbert sending emails to Mark Sanford’s spokesman when he knows that Keith Olbermann’s mother recently died? The man has no shame. [The Colbert Report]
Maybe David Brooks sat next to Colbert and got confused?
Colbert Comes Clean
The last thing you get after a “literal” stroke job is clean…
I saw this last night and wet myself laughing. “Stroke Job!”
Stephen Colbert: Worst Person in the World or The Worstert Person in the World?
Seems like KO & SC are giving each other a stroke job. Still: WIN!
hobospacejunkie: Oh for fuck’s sake. Can’t even get a bad joke right. WorsteSt you moran.
I have a question. why do people sign onto a thread and say “I’m first” as the whole message. I mean besides being a moran- or is that the whole thing?
finallyhappy: They do it for Jeebus and to keep Amurrica safe!!
finallyhappy: Because being first commenter on any given thread is so incredibly awesome!
I mean, personally I worship these people. Doesn’t everybody?
There is no way that Colbert is not the funniest freshly GI haircutted man in the world.
finallyhappy: FIST! ROTFLMAOXYZ!!!1!!2
Ok, I’ve been stuck in Germany and haven’t been keeping up with the Report. What did Stephen do to his hair?
hobospacejunkie: No, no — Worstert plays into Colbert. No take-backs. Right and humorous the first time.
Lascauxcaveman: Nailed it! I’m still kicking myself over my pathetic 4th in this thread. That fucking Wheaties box lied to me.
Bronkers: Yeah, I meant it the first time!
Thanks for the save.
Jake Tapper is mad because he offered a literal stroke job as well, and no one laughed.
TowerOfBabble: Oh you must look it up on his archives. He went to Iraq and did the show there for the troops. They gave him a military cut right there live. He’s a good egg.
So you can say stroke job on TV but not blowjob. The complexities of American prudery continue to elude me.
SayItWithWookies: How about Buff my Helmet?
tootsieroll: I preferred “teach his taint to tango”, myself. Comedy GOLD.
Colbert’s point behind the “comedy gold” is that it was appropriate for him to promise Sanford “a friendly place to make light of what I think is a small story that got blown out of scale” because he’s not a real journalist.
I call bullshit. I don’t have TV, but it’s my impression that the Colbert show touts itself as one of the few television outlets that is not a propaganda outlet for the neocon agenda. (The media is one of the “seven mountains of culture” that Sanford and the rest of the C-Street Family is busy “reclaiming.” http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bruce-wilson/ensigns-c-street-house-ow_b_230015.html). I don’t see the humor in Colbert’s emailed promise to make an asshole like Sanford look like a hero for agreeing to appear on the show.
Colbert has far more journalistic credibility than Fox News. After all, he has actually won a Peabody.
finallyhappy: Lascauxcaveman: hobospacejunkie: And, if you post first while you are masturbating, you will have the best orgasm ever. Try it!
WideStance: Ugh, and Wonkette touts itself as the leading voice of the progressive blogosphere. STFU.
Brendan M.: I read Wonkette not only because it makes me LMAO, but because I often get an insight into the ugly underbelly of politics that I don’t find anywhere else. So, yes, I’d be pissed off if I found out Wonkette had entered into some kind of back-room deal with a politician in exchange for favorable coverage, just as I’m disappointed in Colbert. STFU yourself.
WideStance: If you are admittedly ignorant about the subject (Colbert’s show), it is pretty asinine to be so strident about it. By which I mean you’re a stupid asshole, so STFU. I insist.
Are some of you serious? You think Colbert was really going to play softball with Sanford if he’d had been able to get him on his show? Are you fucking kidding me?
