Someone with guts should invite Colbert to the Correspondents' Dinner as their guest.

I bet he'd GO. Someone brought paula Jones and Monica when Clinton was president..

That would be funny as hell to see Colbert there schmoozing with the people he destroyed last year..

1. someone with guts? In the Washington press corps?

n/t

[Rabrrrrrr]

4. Oh, come on - getting that... that guy, the famous one... that guy that everyone

knows... can't think of his name right now, but he's totally current and hip and dangerous... getting him, um, whatever his name is... that guy that does impressions of people who died decades ago - that takes GUTS!

:eyes:

I agree with you. The choosing of Rich Little after Colbert's abso-fucking-lutely perfect, brilliant, and TRUTHFUL skewering of asshole in chief shows just how cowardly and irrelevant the press corps is.

6. Correspondent? Guts? That'd be a DUer talking about something other than ANS.

7. It would be awful to sit at his table - if he let loose with quips and

commentary. How do keep a laugh in? Itwould be impossible because there are so many surprises in his jokes. And in between the jokes are the facial expressions.

Pretty soon there would be total interruption and the poor President would sit there thinking that people are laughing at him.

9. I'd be happy to sit at such a table

And laugh my ass off.
