Former GOP presidential candidate Ted Cruz once went on “The Late Show” and asked Stephen Colbert if he could “humanize” him.
Colbert was explaining to an audience at New York mag’s Vulture Festival on Saturday that audiences can “smell a prepared answer” from a politician.
“I don’t want to betray my guest because there’s what happens on-camera and off-camera, but I guess it’s okay because I don’t think [Ted Cruz] understood what he was asking,” the 53-year-old host said.

Being a Senate gadfly will keep his Elmer Gantry in check. A SCOTUS appointment may not. Still if he could be appointed during an election summer he could get his CONSERVATIVE point across just by reacting to the rats.

And to be fair, he is more of an anal enema nozzle.What other locations are there? I don't want to miss out on any remedies that might relieve suffering somewhere else.

Steve Colbert seems to be perpetually angry. I’ve never heard him say anything to make me laugh. Some “comedian.”

Steve Colbert seems to be perpetually angry. Feels better to project the self-loathing onto someone else.

Let’s stipulate a scenario where Cruz won the nomination and the election.
How would things be different right now in terms of actions by the President, the “resistance” by the media, Republicans and Democrats, and the violence from the Left?

Why is Cruz on the Stephen Colbert show? Big Minus for Cruz. Cruz still trying to play to all sides. Take a stand Ted and stick with it. Stop being a weather vane politician.

Holy crap! Ted’s HUMAN?
Sorry, I couldn’t resist.
Not gonna say anything in favor or against, other than that Colbert was a bad person to request that of, unless you want to stand next to him to look more human by comparison.
