Steven Cobert just came out against SPRING! He said it... (spoiler)
"...feels too much like Evolution...!"

He also showed "his buddies over at Fox "news" weekend show "Bulls & Bears" claiming that the reason the Stock Market is doing so good is, "...because the Market sees through the Liberal Media's obsession with reporting bad News coming out of Iraq!"

Yeah, that's it. :eyes:

I really think he's a Dennis Miller. Do you?

2. No, I think he's a satirist who's busting on the wingnuts.
It's SATIRE.

to laugh and then realized what he was saying. I'd have to have a transcript to put my finger on it, but I'd say he struck a nerve in the wrong direction for me.

edited for misplaced vowel-use.

7. I don't think you are seeing at all well.
Colbert speaks the opposite of what he believes.

he is what we in the literature world call "satire".

9. I'm still not clear on what you are having trouble with, care to clarify?
Maybe one of us can clear it up, if you give more details about what you though he was saying.:shrug:

No biggie, we all miss a joke or two every once in a while.

5. Okay. I'm willing to believe I'm off target. But something was different.
I hope I'm wrong.
