Stephen Colbert on Larry King was great

[question everything]

thought I think that Larry King was not sure what to make of him. This is the first time I watched the Larry King show.

It will be repeated again in two hours - midnight west coast time.

When Colbert said that his show is a mockery of pundits, who tend to raise their voices to make a point, Chris Matthews immediately came to mind.

2. Colbert is scary funny. It all just seems to come so naturally to him.

He just blows me away every time.

3. What a talent Colbert is. Thank god he didn't last on MSM. I am also

glad he plans on doing his show way into the future.

[Whisp]

4. i love that man!

what a talent, what a genius.

5. And to think he's from that terribly backwards state of SC

I'm proud of this SC native.

John Edwards was born here, too.

Not everyone in the South sucks.

6. I heard him say something during an earlier interview on NBC

He mentioned that, as a kid, he tried to lose his local accent because he was afraid that people would think he was a hick (or worse). It broke my heart.

I really admire Stephen Colbert -- he's been through a lot, but he seems so well-grounded. And he does such a brilliant job of playing that character (who happens to have the same name).
