I can't hate Rita Crosby. I just end up wondering what horrible thing she did as a child that resulted in her parents having her vocal chords scraped.

I believe that. My family is largely conservative. My middle brother once tried to convince me that Colbert may be doing a double fake, and is actually a conservative at heart. That's some serious wishful thinking there. People always see what they want to see.

"I'm doing you, Bill." - Stephen Colbert
Love it.

Poor Bill. He is really confused by Colbert, isn't he? Doesn't know quite how to take him but is of course flattered by the whole thing, which shows how stupid he is.

Totally stupid. And he is the worst person to watch on TV... even worse than Grace and Beck combined. Hannity is a close second.

Umm, no I don't think so. It's pretty clear that he "gets" that Colbert is mocking him in the tapes. You may not agree with his POV (I agree with maybe 60% of it, strongly oppose 40%) but he is not a moron.

He is clearly intelligent enough to be enormously wealthy and succesful. He turned his name into a brand (and a strong one at that); not the work of a dimwit.

So did Paris Hilton, but that doesn't mean she should be admired or emulated.

OMG, Pru! I can't mojo you right now, but if I'd have been drinking I'd owe the community college a new monitor. :snap:

That was mojo worthy alright!

A more cynical take on this would be that Bill does know that he is being mocked but does not care, as he really is nothing but an act. Of course, all those followers of his probably wouldn't appreciate this scenario, but if it works for Rush.........

Good one, Pru.:snap:
