CBS’s decision to replace David Letterman with comic Stephen Colbert is an open act of contempt toward ordinary Americans, Rush Limbaugh says.

Amen FReeper!
One of the best there ever was.
Yeah, I sure wanted CraigyFerg to get the slot.
I love that guy’s show...

CBS is just stage for commie politics.
I was pretty young when Jack Paar was on. A big part of the attraction, I think, was that it was a special privilege to be able to be able to watch the show. Usually my parents would let me watch the first 15 minutes if I was still awake but sometimes I could make myself invisible and make it much further into the show.
Yes, Carson was good also. After that, not so much.
Yup, Fergusen is really good.
Yes, Steve Allen was great.
You can give it a French spin, but it’s still pigeon crap!
2-3 years, max.
So they replaced one worthless pile of trash with another one. Johnny Carson passed over Letterman for a reason. He was not wrong.
I miss Johnny.
I like Craig Fergusen too; maybe they’ll give it to him after Colbert falls on his *ss.
“is only interested in whatever will get him the most attention. “
Covers all of entertainment//news// radio biz,,,,,Said Capt.Obvious
Charleston, SC born and raised Colbert likes to brag about going to speech classes to get rid of his “southern accent”. What little southern accent Charleston natives even have was too much for him. He said he didn’t like people to think he was stupid for being a southerner. A real jerk in every sense of the word.
A person on my local newspaper site praised Colbert for his “progressive credentials” but worried that he might not “stay on message” and “deliver the correct political line.” This person obviously expects late-night comedians to be political activists and shills for Democratic politicians and policies.
Of course, but nobody confuses Conan O’Brien for a political pundit.
Because Rush’s entertainment genre is politics, too many believe that he actually believes the stuff he says. That’s bad for us as a movement.
