reassess their mental direction

That's what reeducation camps are for. You will learn about The Truth like global warming or get shot.

We would think differently if Colbert was just the least little bit funny. A root canal is more humorous than this slug.

Colbert is the guy on television who makes faces when other people are talking.

Funny? I guess it depends on the face he makes.

It have been funny the first time he did his shtick, or many the first hundred times but it's always the same thing and now it's old and it's not funny any more. Just like the other guy, Stewart, a one trick pony who does essentially the same thing night after night. Liberals must have a very high boredom threshold.

I believe Colbert’s entire life is one big joke. On him.

Yeah, he's joking his ass right on down to the bank ain't he?

They subjected 332 people of varying political bents to a three-minute clip of "The Colbert Report."

Three minutes of selectively edited clips for someone who has never seen his show is hardly scientific. I would bet most of the liberals they "tested" had already seen his show.

Let me know when they do the Ann Coulter survey. I'll bet the libs think she is the funniest and most personable person in the world; just like I think of lib satirists are very funny./s Don’ trust the poll.

Is Colbert in the Ponzi Scheme business. I did not know that. I thought he was a comedic news reader.

The left really believe that O’Reilly is a conservative...and this is why they get such a kick out of Colbert. If you don’t think O’Reilly is a conservative, his schtick makes no sense...and certainly isn’t funny....just annoying.

many conservatives appear to think that he is only pretending to be funny.

Amen. I didn't think he was funny BEFORE I knew he who he was. If he's pretending to be funny, he sucks at pretending.
