That's become important to me. :)<br /> <br /> I love Stephen Colbert. He's been my favorite comedian since he was on the Jon Stewart's gig, doing "This Week in God". But, I think his performance has been even better after he got his spinoff. I think his characature of the far right conservative and Bush supporter, through ironic humor, has done more for the liberal movement than all the blogs put together.<br /> <br /> I think, though, that Ms Singer may be a little optimitic when she speculates that the spot might be enlightening. That's not what Colbert does. He gives guests just enough time between interuptions to make a few plugs, and the rest is setup for his comedy routine. But I plan to be watching, in fact, I cant wait.<br /> <br /> NeoWolfe I love being the first to post, there is no danger of addressing responses to the wrong person.

I never miss his show, and I am really looking forward to the "Fightin' Heathens" segment. I'm proud to line up beside them.

Stephen Colbert is the one of the most irreverent human beings that ever existed, and makes fun of evangelicals and fundamentalists by pretending to be one. He is absolutely side splitting funny. <br /> And as I understand, Wikipedia also has no record of Einstein's theory of a stable universe. Maybe they only keep records of things that don't matter.<br /> <br /> NeoWolfe martha…….whatever,
