The Colbert Effect: This Ain't No Laughing Matter
Filed under: Stephen Colbert
He may be running as a joke, but Stephen Colbert has thrown a bit of a monkey wrench into the upcoming election.
New polls show the funnyman ahead of some presidential hopefuls as Bill Richardson, Dennis Kucinich and Mike Gravel.
Colbert for President!
He'd likely do a better job than Bush!

Okay..
"Likely" do a better job than Bush???? A fucking ape could do a better job than Bush. I hope that Colbert's presence doesn't actually affect the election though.
Come on P, he's no where near as qualified as my man Bush.

'Electile Disfunction'.

Good morning!
I LOVE COLBERT!!!!!!!!!!!
Kucinich and Gravel are the best. But of course they won't even place in the polls, cause people would rather sit on websites like this and talk about celebrities.
he's wasting people's time.
Colbert for Prez!
Re: Jews suck –
We're not too partial of you, either.
He has said that he is NOT running as a joke, Perez. he doesn't expect to win, but it's no joke!
first retard freaks!
Anyhow,
VOTE COLBERT!
I love his truthiness.
Re: MargotPolo –
your an asshole too for saying thaqt…..only someone with an asshole under their nose would post something like that..lololol
He looks like BOB SAGET— dont vote for him!
This is the part where people who don't understand Colbert's humor, and the incredible job he does at deconstructing the right-wing punditry, will start to say very stupid things in the comments. Just wait and see!
Nobody could do a better job than Bush
Bush is one of the greatest presidents that ever lived!!!
you stupid fucking liberals will rot in HELL
YAY COLBERT!
I HOPE HE WINS.
Why do you people care who comments first?????
If you have something to say…..say it!!!!!!!
I don't care, I'm voting for Britney!

Re: Bush Rockz!! – You say these horrible things implies your immaturity, and it makes you NO BETTER!
Viva Colbert! Hehe
He make me laugh
A piece of toast would do a better job than bush
He looks just like Bob Saget! ewwwwww
Please join the Facebook group 1,000,000 Strong For Stephen T Colbert. We all know he is smarter and less corrupt than all the other politicians out there, so the least we can do is get him to actually be on a ballot!! Let the government see that we demand change and want someone different in power than these hack politicians!!!
Even Britney can do a better job than Bush
Poor Perez, you sir don't have a fucking clue about politics or as a matter of fact, about nothing. I know it's not "cool" to like Bush or defend Bush, but "hating and trashing" the president it's already obsolete, it's getting old. Bush, like Clinton, Carter and previous presidents have make mistakes but also acomplishments. I really doubt that Coulbert can be anything but a great comedian.
Of course I will vote for him in a bizarre world, in the real world, I'm happy I have Bush as my president. Better than Kerry a million times! And yes, I'm gay and republican.
Sad that even though Bill Richardson is arguably the best qualified candidate and he isn't even getting the attention he deserves. Right after BR I'd vote for SC. Heck, I'd leave my hubby for him!
I loveeeeee Colbert. Between Obama the muzlim and Hillary the dike, I will vote Colbert in 2008.
Re: Jews suck –
Your small brained comments are so immature. Your intelligence must reflect upon your itty penis. In order to overcompensate for your small penis you say stupid things. Seriously go and get a lobotomy (and a penis extension at that). You need it.
By the way, Colbert is Roman Catholic.
Re: Jews suck – Seriously the only worse than a racist is a DUMB as a fuckin STUMP RACIST.
You ignorant fucking moronic ibicile, Stephen Colbert is Irish Catholic, you stupid fucking idiot.
Fuck I fear for the future of this country with morons like you, Britney and Lindsey Lohan. Stupidty EVERYWHERE.
Re: Jews suck –
He's not Jewish. Duh!
His last name is Colbert, a French name. He's catholic.
shame on you perez for saying that about President Bush. The position and the man deserve respect for the office and his conduct and performance regardless of how much you disagree with him. Learn some manners and how to disagree appropriately and with gentlemanly manners and dignity. Your insults are not appropriate or warranted even. grow up and be nice , even to your elders and those you dislike. that is what our founding fathers called for in this great country they designed. Too bad you wish to bring it all down around us all by your spitting in its face. Please reconsider your words and choices.
keep it up Perez and you'll go back to being a poor, fat , unknown blogger again. We've given up on all movies because of the hollywierd gang, we can easily dump you!
What a good idea Stephen, who do you think will vote for you? People that wouldve voted republican, or people that wouldve voted democrat? do you WANT the republicans to win another election?
Coming from someone who cannot vote in the upcoming election (Canadian), I would hope that enough of you give your vote to him, at least to make things interesting.
Re: Jews suck – he is catholic
*****ATTENTION******
DICK BALLS PUSSY FLAP
RYAN HAS SAND IN HIS VAGINA, BOB SAGET PISSES IN HIS MOUTH WHILE GENE SHALIT BUTTERS HIS NIPPLES!!!!!
……..THAT IS ALL
For Stephen. He runs as a joke, stupid people take it seriously, even stupider people act like it's all his fault the first stupid people are stupid.
Re: ROBERT – Bush stands alone as the worst president this nation has ever had. His "accomplishments" include letting New Orleans drown, torturing prisoners who are held without charge or trial, illegally invading a sovereign nation, wiretapping private citizens, driving the next three generations into debt, ignoring increasing environmental impacts of climate change … the list goes on and on and on. Bush made it clear he mistakes himself for a King and not a very good one, at that. I'm an American. We don't think much of warmongering despots and so we don't think much of Bush.
Being President is a serious job. AN important job. Other countries realize that. But now Americans. Clinton turned the Presidency into a joke and it has never recovered.
Could imagine running the country and tryng not tomake mistakes and always being expected to make the right decision. I can't
Re: MariaB – Fuck Bush.
Bush has PERSONALLY been enriched by the Federal taxs that have funded the war and military contractors. The Bush family owns stock with The Carlye Group who OWNS several military contractors who have finanically benefited by Bushs RECORD appropriations to military spending.
Bush has made $$$ on the War in Iraq.
Cheney has had his stock options with Halliburton increase in value too. And yes, Cheney will "donate it to charity" but that is basically a tax right off so its that same as money in his pocket.
Bush is a fucking scum bag who has profitted on the blood of American soliders.
Stephen Colbert's my HERO!
Re: ronde – Yes, we can all tell the movie industry is suffering horribly. Perhaps they could save the entertainment industry from your fearsome boycott by reissuing such classics as "Hillbilly Hoedown Jamboree." I'm sure you'd like that. Meanwhile, they're going right along making bazillions of dollars, Jebediah.
Robert - I know quite a few gays that are also Republican. Not all of the Republican party is made up of "bible thumpers".
I totally agree with you on your comments.
We have not had an attack on our homeland since. The Terrorist are banking on the Dems going into office. The Republicans have them scared - that's why they pander to liberals.
Re: msfanni – How can someone as stupid as you are breathe without cue cards?
I voted for Bush in BOTH elections…and as for where it has gotten me,…I am now a "single" mother while my husband is off fighting the war in Iraq. I would vote for SC…in a HEARTBEAT if he will bring our troops home!!! Besides, he is alot less of a slime ball than ANY of the other choices we have been presented with….
Re: Robert Has a Backbone – Robert has Fox News three feet up his ass.
ANYONE could do better than bush…..so that isn't saying much. but i don't think he would be an ideal president for our country….hopefully it's just a joke.
YOU GUYS ARE FUCKING IDIOTS…BUSH IS DOING THE JOB HE PROMISED HE WOULD DO. YOU CAN'T PULL OUT THIS FAR INTO THE WAR..IT WOULD BE STUPID..WHICH IS WHY HILARY FUCKING IDIOT CLINTON CANNOT BE PRESIDENT AND WON'T BE…
