He'll probably fire the booker!

[A wise Man]

3. he was seriously funny

[zabet]

4. I watched it

earlier here on the east coast. Bizarre to say
the least. Colbert a cult leader? Strange and
disconcerting interview. Pussert refused to let
Colbert give his web address out on air but offered
to let Colbert give out his phone number. Surreal.

6. Timmy is an ass licker.

[poiuytsister]

16. He didn't offer to let him

put his phone number on the air.. He said "Do you have a phone number?" Colbert said "no I have a website"..Russert wasn't going tp let him put the number on.

9. Worst. Interview. Ever.

It may work for "regular" politicians, but don't ask Colbert qustions which require a one word answer.

[Sedona]

13. Then best moment on MTP this morning was

when Doris Kerns Goodwin said Gulianai and the Values Voters Convention "hated the same". :applause:

[applegrove]

14. I thought it was very funny. I missed the audience laughing cause there

is no audience. But it was a great interview.

[Disturbed]

15. Tim Russert Media Whore

“You know, Tim, you used to be such a rabid Democrat when you worked for Pat Moynihan,” said the executive. “But now that you’ve gotten a glimpse of who’s handing out the money in this business, you’ve become quite the Jaycee. Were you wrong about everything you used to believe so strongly?”
“I still believe,” Russert said, leaning across the table. “I believe in everything I ever did. But I also know that I never would have become moderator on Meet The Press if my employers were uncomfortable with me. And, given the amount of money at stake, millions of dollars, I don’t blame them. This is business.”

The executive agreed. “But are you concerned about losing yourself? You know, selling out?”

Russert pounded the table. “Integrity is for paupers!”

17. I'm not a fan of Tim Russert. A flower on wallpaper could have done

a great interview with Colbert cause he is so funny. I should have made that clear I guess. I only think I have ever seen Russert as a guest on Larry King or running a debate. I don't think I have ever seen his show until today. I'm in Canada and I don't have the foggiest clue what channel he would be on.
