Kicked out by Conyers. Even leftists aren’t safe on the hill.

“Conyers”

Another of my “little pets”.

Please keep talking and making a fool of yourself. We gain votes every time you do.

What a waste of time to even invite this guy. What the hell is he there for in the first place? They have nothing better to do than to give this guy free publicity? How much is this costing us?

When you have comedians, (by trade, not politicians), influencing national debate, and getting elected to national office... well, our republics future isn’t bright.

More proof, as if any were needed, that we are living in the age of insanity.

First we loose ‘transparency.’

Now, ‘truthiness.’

I mean, this is an OUTRAGE...ColBear spent 14 (yes!!! FOURTEEN) entire hours on a farm, as part of ‘Take My Job’ migrant worker ‘experience.’

Why...he is a brain trust of insight. In character.

Wonderfully it appears that the left is in full implosion mode.

He looks like Carl Vinson compared to Zoe Lofgren.

Maybe Conyers was just exasperated with his white metro smart @$$ and the most polite thing he could say was "just get out of here, okay?"

I could see that.

colbert is a joke.

what is even a better joke is that he got a moment with the larger joke... the 111th...

no one can make this stuff up anymore. the joker in chair of the joker subcommittee says... this is a joke... screw.

i may well pi$$ myself laughing.

but it is not that funny.

He’s a lefty, and I think Stewart is funnier, and I think the rallies they are doing are noxious, but this current schtick is pretty humorous - he’s a comedian, so good for him for carrying it this far.

Easy, he's so senile that he thinks Colbert is being serious.
