2. Brilliant!
Leave it to Colbert to establish proper prospective of the "news" these days.
This is what it's become. Personally, I'll take Tommy Chong's perspective over such "distinguished reporters" as Russert, Williams, and the spokesmodel crew.

5. Colbert did lay that out rather succinctly:
1) You are asked onto a news show to give your opinion.
2) The host recognizes the value of your opinion, thereby validating your appearance.
3) You give opinions that support and validate the reporting.
And the circle closes.

I like Tommy Chong, he is more complicated than his "character" appears...

11. I agree that he layed it out nicely.
I don't know how MSNBC got it wrong. Usually they are able to determine the stance of the person who they are going to bring on their show just as in trials the experts almost always agree with the side they are testifying for.

7. this is a MUST SEE video!
I saw the show last night and I was in tears I was laughing so hard. I had hoped DU or someone would save it. This is just about as funny as it gets. We need Tommy as a democratic spokesperson!

10. I'm still laughing
Watching Tommy take "the Contessa" apart was priceless and he is one of the few people who can make Colbert crack up.....

I saw him turn Contessa Newsbimbo into a blubbering, spittle-flying, yammering fool too. That made my week.

29. Hey, Dr. Phool
why did you leave us (and I don't mean DU) they sent out some excuse about a campaign, but the timing was interesting.

17. Laughed out loud watching Tommy on Colbert last night!
I felt as if fresh air had blown away a bunch of the chaff that serves to call itself "news." Tommy is more sane "high" than The Contessa is doing the fake news.

21. That's how two great comedians riff off each other
Edited on Wed Jun-13-07 12:42 PM by alcibiades_mystery
You wouldn't last 20 minutes in a room with those two. They'd make you pee, and then die from laughter. It's a remarkable study in how to do comedy.

Anyone familiar with the impeccable comic timing of "That's VODKA, man!" would know Chong's genius. It's up there with Jim Carey and Jeremy Piven.

22. Colbert is slick
did anyone else catch his pronounciation of Brewer's first name? He changed the "O" to a "U".

He's good...

34. I was just checking out his book "The i Chong" at Amazon...
...and it has all great reviews! I think I'll add it to this summer's reading list.

Chong is so funny!
