He's a triple threat: he's well-informed, he's committed, and he's funny as hell.

true. In retrospect, I'm not sure why I chose that analogy. I'll blame it on sleep-deprivation.

He's still very funny.

Colbert kinda makes me cringe. Maybe it's because his audience is pretty left-leaning[/quote]

I ain't watched Colbert much more then outside whatever clips are usually posted on youtube [I don't have television in the crib] and as just a commedy show that isn't taken as journalism, then it's very humorous at times, but if you're using it as a journalistic media source, then you're searching in the wrong place. The idiots in the video clip that's this topic's starter, are seriously taking it too seriously and feel threatened. Threatened by what? I don't know... a commedian that makes jokes about global warming? If that's the case, then they need to get a life and move on [not the website]. I highly doubt that people base their love or hate for Grizzley bears based upon Stephen Colbert's humor... and if so, they have alot of learning to do.

Peeps, Colbert is satire. Both Al Franken and Eli Pariser, who appear in the You Tube clip, have appeared on Colbert's show. Indeed, the You Tube clip [i]itself[/i] is satire.
