Good for them!!!  I do not like Colbert one bit.  I don't like the way he makes fun of my President and never makes fun of any Democrats.  I never watch his show on purpose.  I was only forced to watch that creep while in Boston and he ticked me off so much I had to leave the room.

I am a Democrat, but I do not like ANYBODY making fun of my President, and especially only attacks one side.

Jay Leno, in my mind, is different.  At least he makes fun of both sides and, in my mind, is not intended to make anybody look bad.  Plus, I am used to Jay Leno as he took over for the man I grew up watching, Johnny Carson.


Oh dear, where to begin..... First off, Colbert does attack democrats. A lot. In fact, I've probably seen him bash democrats more than republicans. Secondly, everyone makes fun of Bush or "your" president and he damn well deserves it. Your Jay Leno makes fun of Bush too. Everyone does. And Bush has earned it. Third, Jay Leno sucks.

I'll give you that, since you probably watch that show more than me.  This president, even though he has made some major mistakes, does not deserve the ridicule and near-hatred of his people.  He does deserve respect, and that will I give him.  Also, Jay Leno is America's Late Night leader for a reason as he is a much better comedian than, say, his counterpart David Letterman.

I guess as long as Colbert means absolutely no harm by his jabs, then I'll live with it.

Of course he does. How much blood does this guy have on his hands? He isn't a good person.

It seems that the SC Democratic Executive was pressured by Barack Obama's supporters.  They were probably worried that Colbert's bid would steal votes from their own insincere candidate whose campaign isn't meant to be taken seriously.
