Steve Colbert was fantastic last night ....
He did a whole segment with Repub pollster Frank Luntz and had Luntz flummoxed in most of the segment.

I was laughing so had I had tears pouring out of my eyes.

Check it out. (Corporations are People)

1. Ugh -- typical of why I don't watch Colbert -- !! Silly stuff when Luntz should be brought down ...
and not presented on a liberal show!

Didn't watch second half cause first half was so stupid - !!


But do like Colbert, personally!

Show stinks-!!

2. Well, one way you bring someone down is by ridicule.
Colbert does that very well.

4. Agree -- Colbert used to do ridicule well -- but didn't see it in this video -- !!
Too silly to be able to make any point --

Though began well in citing that Luntz gave us "Climate Change" for Global Warming --

something everyone here should be thinking about -- Global Warming makes clear the HEAT

which creates the chaotic weather.

Climate Change is an attempt to make it sound as if something normal is happening!



We also need to be paying attention to manipulation of the Dem Party by Third Way which

now controls it and which is spewing its own rw propaganda . . .



Caught Jonathan Cowarn, Pres. of Third Way on C-span recently and he was making clear

that the policy now is that -- "the base of the party is to be ignored" - - -

"and that populism and populist discussion/debate is the equaivalent of Karl Rove

propaganda of extremism" -- !!!


If you need more info on Third Way and its control over Dem Party, let me know!




PS: Did you also see the bit that Jon Stuart did on how filthy the OWS protesters are?

Samantha Bee skit where she takes a protester into a MacDonald's bathroom and ensures

that he cleans up after himself. And, then buys a burger or donut for him -- making up

for the rumor that the protesters these rest rooms and then don't buy anything!!

Who needs the RW when we have Jon Stuart and Colbert's show?

Somewhere along the line, these guys went way off the track!

3. Really---
A liberal show?

Is the Daily Show a liberal show?

Guess you don't like that either.

Your sense of humor is pretty lame.

5. "To change the hearts and minds of those 99-percenters."
"And it won't be easy, because that's like half the country."

LOL! Pure Colbert.
