yeah, the clip above though was taped earlier in the day. They had an agreement that O'reilly would appear on Colbert if Colbert appeared on O'Reilly first..
in both cases, Colbert owned the shit out of O'Reilly, it was amazing.
It's funny, Colbert (with a silent t) is the proper Irish pronunciation... and Colbert only says it that way since his father wanted him to, he does it out of respect for him since his father died in a Plane Crash when Colbert was 10.
given some of people posts here, i would inclined to believe people are benighted. And given that without tone of voice or body language, it would be difficult to detect sarcasm, if such was the case.
i prefer colbert as well- mind you, I love Stewart and his poopy humour, but Colbert won my total respecting after he blasted the president (through flattery lol) at the White House press correspondent's dinner.
that line where he says something to the effect of
I respect the president because he stands for things but more importantly he stands ON things, like aircraft carriers, and rubble, and recently-flooded town squares...
GOLD!
For sure, that speech was the best ever stunt. I don't think any other comedian has ever done something like that.. I was honnestly expecting the secret service to drag him away.
