Liberals can be funny. The problem is that there aren’t really any liberals still around.

During the Obama Administration, all liberals became leftists. And yes, that includes comedians.

I vote for Jeff Foxworthy.

Gutfeld is cleaning the clocks of the far left late night crew

Funny and conservative. Unbeatable!

Colbert was once funny but now the same content is being served up as serious news. No longer cool.

[Frank Drebin]

"We consider Stephen Colbert irreplaceable and will retire the Late Show franchise at that time..."

Colbert...irreplaceable. That's the best joke CBS has told since Colbert took over The Late Show.

[Bruce Campbells Chin]

I think they say “unlikely” because it’s the first time a cable late-night show has beaten the late shows for the networks.

[Joe Boucher]

Kimmel.
A real ass, get him out.

[Thommas]

So Colbert draws 2.42 million viewers and Gutfield draws 3 million, but Colbert is touted as the premier draw. Got it!

Well it is not unlikely. They live in a parallel universe

It is quite likely, as evidenced by facts and also by the fact that their political and cultural ideal has no sense of humor

It is much more likely that they have failed, are failing and will continue to fail
As ebony their failures and but the fact that no one is surprised by any of this

[stanne]

No. I never said Colbert was the premier draw

[ridesthemiles]

RATING IS AROUND 1.9

[Vaquero]

Gutfeld is the standard

[BEJ]

He’ll do commercials for DRAINO.

[Flaming Conservative]

I miss Johnny.

[chaosagent]

Johnny Carson and Jack Webb in the Copper Clapper Caper.

[GOPJ]

You’re right.
