Anybody see COLBERT Tonight? (Spoilers)
Edited on Thu Jul-20-06 11:33 PM by liberalpragmatist
Anybody catch Colbert tonight? Great show (although no "word" segment!). He had an interview with Julian Bond early on, but the highlight for me was his hilarious interview with Rep. Curt Weldon who totally played along with Colbert.

Still, it took some balls for Weldon to say "I enjoy cocaine because it's a fun thing to do" and "I enjoy prostitutes and cocaine because if you put the two together it's probably even more fun." Hopefully this isn't going to bite him in the ass in a future race.

:rofl:

1. I thought it was some cat named Wexler?
That segment was hilarious!

"try not to smile or someone will think it's a joke."

3. Wexler is his name, from the Fightin' 19th district of Florida
Hilarious episode!

And yeah, it was pretty cool of Wexler to play along. Not many politicians would have the balls to play along with that one.

The interview with the NAACP guy was goddamn wonderful, with all the slamming of Fuckstick.

And the last segment was fucking brilliant.
