1. can you expand on that a bit?

you saying Scarborough liked, or didn't like Colbert's performance?

can't believe he cared for it

how ironic if he did, and KO didn't

[smtpgirl]

2. So maybe Colbert should have "white-washed" his whole speech?

Even Tweety didn't like it. I thought it was so funny and so right on the point. I loved Colbert's speech at the WH correspondent's dinner.

Hopefully C-SPAN will air it again, this time I will record it

5. too close to the truth for many--including the press.

[Gabi Hayes]

9. did Joe S. say that?

good for him, if he did

btw, I've HATED that pigeyed prick for a long long time

[rodeodance]

3. said that both liberals and conservatives in the audiance were uncomfortab

with the Colbert skit. Thinks he was to harsh (and his wife sitting right there also said Joe).

4. bwahahahahaha

[Gabi Hayes]

7. hey! can you translate what's going on here for me, please?

I'm getting closer to understanding, but not all the way there

thx

10. Joe Scarborough did a segment on Colbert's WHCD bit

and said that normally it's a roast; however, Colbert didn't even singe Bush as he used a blow torch.

Funny as hell.

:hi:

12. thanks...what was the take by JS, as opposed to KO? I was really

pissed he had that uberho Milbank (diva of funny hats) as his socalled humor expert

talk about jumping the shark

16. there are several Keith Olbermann threads around.....

I'm having a hard time posting tonite, for some reason.

pages act like they don't want to load.

15. Like bush blowtorched those

Soldiers lives and the lives of thousands of Iraqis? That kind of blowtorching?

[Ravy]

6. Title should read singe, not cinch, I believe (n/t).

[Cha]

17. Yep!

Singe.

[sandnsea]

8. That's the talking point

singe, not burn. I think Matthews said the same thing, or maybe Dana Milbank, or maybe both. They had to figure some way to avoid the truth.

[Eric J in MN]

11. I think it was Mike Allen of Time Magazine who said that to

Chris Matthews, after Matthews asked:
Why was Colbert "so bad?"

[Saturday]

14. It's their talking point.

Milbank also said it to KO and KO let him get away with it.

13. SINGE!!! Love ya. n/t
