Stephen Colbert is such a cynical, hateful unfunny worm

Not even close. Colbert is the modern day Letterman, but he never shuts his mouth. I guess that's what the Tik Tok generation needs tho.

Colbert is definitely no Carson.

Carson was king because he made fun of EVERYBODY. Late night tv ditched this when obama came along and fawned over him instead of treating him like every other president. Colbert and trevor noah are the worst by far, totally predictable. Kimmel is better but barely worth watching. I used to never miss saturday night live, couldn't be paid to watch it now it's so political.

This is basically what has happened for the past four years with the bogus claims of Russian collusion (never heard an apology for being wrong), endless investigations, bogus impeachment designed to be an election issue, voter suppression and foreign interference. After watching BLM protestors getting away with it for months, they marched on the capitol. The protestors were stunned they got in, as were the BLM protestors also present ( John Sullivan from Utah and others).

Given the way trump has been treated the past four years, he's entitled to a couple of months of complaining.

Stopped reading after your first sentence. He's literally an elite improv comedian. That's as natural as it gets.

White Israeli Jews are some of the most racist people on planet earth. It is too exhausting for U.S. Blacks to fight White Gentile racists and White Israeli racists simultaneously. Even more exhausting since many White Gentile racists often are in bed with White Israeli racists.

White Israeli Jews? That would be as opposed to all the black ones, then?

But how about comparing to the racist people on planet Mars?

And even more exhausting than too exhausting, huh? That must be tiring.

I can tell you're a great thinker. Tell us more.

Most Israeli Jews in Palestine are former Soviets post WW2 or former Russians post Great War. Most are White. There are a small population of actual Semitic Jews who can actually trace their roots back 3000 years and never left from 3000 plus years ago. There are Black Jews recently from Ethiopia there in Palestine.

Interesting that you knocked my ability to think. You obviously have never been near Palestine and you have done no reading on the issues. I have both been to the region including on Palestinian soil and I have studied the issues.

You failed to address my statement in my post in regard to White Israelis in Palestine are some of the worst racist on planet earth.

So much for the tolerant left.......................

I never said I was tolerant of you right-wing MFers. I AM tolerant of and even accepting of things that people are -- white, black, Asian, gay, straight, etc. I am tolerant and even accepting of things that people choose to be engaged in as long as it doesn't infringe on my rights, so ALL religions that don't infringe on my rights for example.

I am NOT tolerant of a group of people who believe the serial liar in the White House who says the election was stolen from him when there is no proof of that. I am NOT tolerant of some of those same people who want to overthrow our government. I am NOT tolerant of some of those same people advocating violence.

So, go shovel your sh!t somewhere else.

Amy Cole (left, rear) appears to be one of the dancers in Stephen Colbert's "The Vax-Scene".

Certainly looks like her, but I can't find the names of the dancers. Can anyone confirm this ?

Amy Cole is dead from cancer at age 53.

Late Show With Stephen Colbert Staffer Amy Cole Dies at 53 - LateNighter

Jed Rosenzweig

The Late Show family is mourning the loss of Stephen Colbert’s longtime executive assistant Amy Cole tonight. Cole was just 53. A close friend confirms she died earlier today. The show paid tribute to Cole at the end of Monda...

You don't seem very tolerant of anything. And your rage is very evident. Scary even.

You really searched out and bumped this thread…for this?

Can't blame a guy for doing his job . . .

Greg Z's made him his bltch on several occasions so it's not surprising he has a lot of rage.

Can you confirm it is her ? How many Covid vaxxes did she take ?

No sense in starting a new thread when a relevant thread exists.

False equivalence

I neglected to say I like Colbert very much. I have been a viewer of his for years, rarely missing a show! I was being picayune about some minor qualities: I admire Mr. Colbert for his quick wit and intelligence. He’s the best interviwer out there. My points were about some subtleties that make some people funny by nature and others who achieve funny by skill and talent. Groucho could read a recipe for waffles and it would be funny. Seinfeld says few things that are witty per se, but his delivery style makes it so. IMO.

Even if she wasn't a dancer in this horrifically awful skit, she was Colbert's longtime aide so you know she shared his views on everything. He'd never tolerate a dissenter in his orbit.

No cause of death listed for a 53 year old. Imagine if...

The explosive cognitive dissonance in Colbert's brain right now could light a large city for a month.

This is how you respond to a 53 year old tragically passing from cancer?

Given Colbert's screeching, hyperventilating, white-knuckled, vein-popping support for mandatory Covid vaccines, everyone wants to know if his aide was diagnosed in 2021 or later. RIP Amy.

Colbert sucks. His show on Comedy Central was brilliant because he was playing a character. The real him is insufferable and represents a type of elitist liberalism that I despise. Kimmel sucks too.
