A Sea Of Red

Stephen Colbert as his running mate! I know it happened 2 days ago, but this is still funny stuff.



You may need to check this out quickly before Viacom takes this one down.

i love stephen colbert, he's awesome.
his show is freakin hilarious

I wrote this on my Xanga page, but I think it's appropriate here, too:

A few years back, the pastor of my church was relating a story to the congregation. He was a younger guy living in Australia, as a pastor or some member of a church staff, when he went to go to lunch at some guy's house. The guy just happened to be the number two man in Australia's equivalent of the CIA.

So, Pastor Steve goes to the guy's house, and is amazed at how opulent it is, and is amazed at how he could be meeting with someone this prominent. But then he had this epiphany (I can't remember if the CIA guy told him this or if he thought of it on his own), but essentially it was, "If I revere him so much, how can I effectively be a pastor to him? How can I be a leader to him? If I'm completely starstruck -- how can he look up to me as a leader?"

Related to that -- Mike Huckabee has been on Leno, Letterman, Colbert... Does anyone else get the impression that Huckabee can't believe that he gets to rub shoulders with celebrities -- and he wants to milk his popularity for as long as it lasts?

Seriously -- what do you think is more likely to have happened: Colbert saying "I'm so lucky that someone like Mike Huckabee agreed to be on my program" or Huckabee saying "I'm so lucky that someone like Steven Colbert agreed to let me be on his program."

I think it was good for both. Huckabee can definetly use the opportunity to show his self-depricating humor and pretty decent wit, while Colbert needs everything he can get with his writers on strike.

On the other hand, Huckabee gets to hang out with Chuck Norris. Do you really need any other friends?

Hello! Huckabee has no money. That is why is on TV all the time. He needs all the free air time he can get. If it wasn't for the free air time he wouldn't have won Iowa.

I think there's some truth to what your saying. He does give kind of an Andy Griffith from Mayberry impression. I was very impressed with his interview with Chris Matthews and Keith Olberman on election night in Iowa. He left the two speechless as to how well he answered their questions. He has struggled elsewhere, however, trying to defend some of the positions he held while governor.

Finally got around to clicking on the link to see what it was and it got taken down cause of a Viacom claim.
