Stephen Colbert is the rumored top pick to replace David Letterman as host of Late Show on CBS. Letterman announced he plans to retire in the next year or so.

Well who would have EVER believed that they would replace a liberal with a liberal? Astounding.
I wouldn’t touch that with your ten foot pole! What about Laz?

Heads would explode!
JOY!
We all know he would never do it.
He should just claim it though, just to jack around the left.

People of all types are sick of PC crap.
That about covers it.
Sounds like a great replacement for Letterman. One vagina for another.
Sorry, but I found Carson completely unfunny. His Tonight show flopped on British TV in the 80s.
Dang! I always wished I could find a girl with large, smooth biceps...
I know that there is a phrase that describes that condition perfectly. Alas, my Alzheimer’s is kicking up and I can’t seem to remember what it is.
He will flop and Craig ferguson will take over long term.
