Give 'er the Colbert Bump

hil.jpg

Hillary Clintonis scheduled to appear on the super popular The Colbert Report for the very first time ever this Thursday!!

MSNBC's Chris 'my bosses made me apologize to Hillary' Matthews 'blurted' the news out at a show taping on Monday. The news was confirmed to the source by a person close to the Comedy Central 'news' program, who insisted on anonymity because the date of the visit hadn't been publicly announced.

Barack Obama has thus far declined Colbert's invitation to appear on the show. But his wife, Michelle, will appear on Colbert Tuesday.

Will the infamous "Colbert bump" help propel Hil to victory in Pennsylvania?

      Re: Hey, whats going on here – LOL Kid

      The UCC is predominantly white. The UCC is one of the most liberal christian denominations, mostly white, and very pro gay. Do some homework

      Re: Hey, whats going on here – PS You obviously have no clue what you are talking about. The UCC was the one denomination that supported, financed, and backed the lawsuit of the Amistad slaves. Watch the movie. The UCC is predominantly white. It does have many black centric churches in the fold of its nation wide congregation due to what the UCC did for the black slaves of the slave ship Amistad. The website you are reffering to is Rev Wright's particular church in the inner city. The UCC is nation wide. The UCC was the3 first xtian denomination to accept gays, to ordain gays, and to bless gay weddings. A church can not be part of the UCC denomination if it is not open and accepting of full equality for gays. Kid, do the minimal amount of homework

      RE: THE MEDIA NOT FAIR.

      If anyone has had a free ride by the media and has been given preferential treatment by the media, it is the bullshit artist Barack Obama. His SF comments were not taken out of context. He was basically mocking Middle America to a bunch of his rich San Francisco donors. He just didn't think he was going to be recorded and that was going to be posted on the Web. Now he is trying to backtrack by saying he didn't mean "bitter" he meant "angry." He said that small town people "cling to their religion". He is one who has been clinging to Reverend Wright for these 20-some-odd years now. It sounds like he took a page right out of his Super delegate BFF John Kerry's book of flip-flopping. Wait a minute! Didn't Obama say that "The superdelegates should follow the will of the people?" Well, last time I checked Clinton carried Massachutes despite Kerry's and Kennedy's endorsements. I think they should switch their votes to Clinton, afterall, we need to be fair and unified and "Words do count." BTW, he better want to count Florida and Michigan they are part of the United States.

      omg Perez –how can you back such a hateful, phony, do anything-to-get-elected bitch ?? Do you EVER watch the news ??? She lies about "snipers shooting at her " –now she says she loves to hunt and shoot and is throwing back brewskis and shots –she might as well be a REPUBLICAN !!! Which is what her whole family was and raised her as !! She and McCain both come from wealthy Republican families - Obama had a white mother and a black father who left them when Barack was 2 years old ! He was raised by his white grandparents in Hawaii and they were not rich by any means — she is trying to paint him as an elitist when he was just saying that he sees why people feel disenfranchised because the for the last 20+ years we have had Presidents who support NAFTA and gave their jobs to cheap help from other countries — the labor unions are for Barack - why aren't you ? Oh –I forgot –you're GAY –Hillary loves gays - right ??? Don't believe her !!! She will SAY ANYTHING to get elected !! So now she is a gun loving, duck hunting , beer and shot drinking , sniper dodging gay lover ?? Something seem suspicious to you ? PLEASE Perez — use your brain !!!

      RE: GET REAL. You are absolutely right. Obama is showing what kind of an elitist person he is. If anything, he sounds like a Havard educated lawyer when he speaks, until he stop dropping his "g's" and attempts to sound black. It just doesn't seem real when he does that and people can see right through it. He was just pandering to his rich friends and got caught. He should just drop it if he had any sense because he just adding fuel to the fire, which I think is great because I am a proud Southern Republican. There is no way he is going to carry the South with that comment or Florida or Michigan. Go McCain.

      Regardless of whether or not she wins Penn. she lost her chance to be the nomination a long time ago. Instead she stays in the race and gives McCain amo to use against Obama in his run for president. She is motivated by nothing more than her own selfishness, and she will never be president after this.

      Re: Jimmyboyo – Yes, get it right kid. Obama's church is elitist. And they support a lawsuit for each decendant of slaves so they may receive money from the government for their decendants misery. Each proven slave decendant would recieve no less then $2000/month to compensate their ancestors. And yes, Obama supports this act, that is why he said by the 2nd year of his presidentcy all Americans would be in the same income bracket. Its called Marxism if you think about it. So what does this make this church??? OUT OF TOUCH with America… thus ELITIST.

      re: GoHillary !! Canada apologized - they said what they reported was not an accurate account of what Obama's rep said –and Hillary admitted that Bill 'erred" when he supported NAFTA ( she forgot to mention she was one of NAFTA's biggest supporters) –oops - oh well - say anything you want Hillary - then just say "I'm human –I make mistakes " –not so sure about the human part but she does make mistakes !! –by the way - you asked what planet am I from ? I'm from Earth –which one are you from ?

      RE: LUVOBAMA

      Glad to hear you are from earth. I am from Florida which happens to be part of the United States of America-just one of the states that Barack Obama wants to disenfranchise from the election. We had a record voter turnout in Florida and Hillary Clinton won. Barack Obama doesn't want to count our votes because he lost, and we supposedly broke the democratic party's so-called rules of holding our primary early, which other states also did and went unpunished. He will not win the election without Florida and Michigan. If your bullshit artist does win the democratic nomination, a lot Florida democrats will vote for McCain. His inexperience and arrogance is starting to show. Go Hillary or McCain!!!!!

      RE: LUVOBAMA.

      New Hampshire was always the first stop on the campaign trail, but Iowa moved their's up and so did Nevada, yet their votes counted. Remember? New Hampshire was third and was pissed about it. Obama's name was on the ballot in Michigan, but he CHOSE to take his name off the ballot, which a candidate has a right to do. It wasn't like his name was never entered on the ballot, as Obama supporters love to yammer about, he just chose to take it off. Go Hillary or McCain!!!!!

There are plenty of us Pennsylvanians who will not be swayed and hoodwinked with Billary's pandering and double speak and attacks on Obama. I will be Baracking the vote on April 22nd.

      Re: MBM – I totally agree with you!! I have seriously stopped listening to the news since all of them just say how wonderful and smart Obama is. I have yet to hear anything plausible from him. In Spanish we call it a "choro mareador," it means that you talk and talk and talk and you actually say nothing, but because you have spoken for so long people think that you have said something VERY important when in reality you haven't.
      The news did not start giving Hillary a fair chance until Saturday Night Live mocked them. I sure hope she wins. She is the only one that has an opinion and is not copying off of anyone-unlike Obama-If she doesn't win I am voting for the old guy. At least he has military experience and he will have the support of the whole republican party :( . We need a woman president, it is time!

      Re: CLH – I am tired of people attacking Hillary because she is not afraid to get dirty. If it was a man no one would question her actions. On the contrary it would be seen as a plus. It is a major double standard… kind of like when men are called bachelors and women are called _hores because they decide to play the field. Sorry is the only analogy I could come up with.
      Studies have shown that when women are in power whatever it is a country, a factory, or a company does better… why are people so afraid to accept that she would be good for our county? Other countries have women president or prime ministers, why can't the United States? Are we that sexists? Black men got the right to vote first before women, I strongly believe that women should be president first before African Americans… and I don't believe this because of the Constitution, but because I believe in her and what she stands for…. Obama is just copying off of her and other politicians… if you don't believe me, check both websites constantly and you'll see how his changes to match hers every so often… seriously, get informed.

      why do you only post positive blogs about Hilary? I understand that you back her for president and are not really interested in Obama and that's fine. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. However, you are generally fair in your mocking of the celebrities and are a equal opportunity offender :) I guess i'm dissapointed in your lack of honesty regarding Hilary. Seriously, no comment on her "sniper fire" remarks? No mocking of the fake redneck accent she accquired while down south? Honestly, her ass backwards attempt at drinking and doing shots and being a lady of "the people"…you bought that? seriously?

      Re: MBM – #31MBM- how ignorant can you be it is really painfully sad to hear comments like yours because many people like you really are going around believing the lies and bullshit and bias propaganda that you hear on one of the most tainted corrupted news media sources out there,fox. they never encourage promoting your own non bias opinion. they cleverly only push thier views on the people and slowly brainwash you into believing thier lies they wont let you make your own opinions, all thier guest always have opiniions simular to the network, because if they did not you would not be there, and people who speak whats real like ron paul get put out of the picture they actually werent including him in debates and etc. ron paul doesn't even really tell the WHOLE truth because if he did he would be labeled a radical conspiracy theorist and would not see the light of day on the media. and it should be evident that hillary is just a fucking cunt who says whatever the people want to hear, and i reality it doesnt matter who are next president will be once you learn the truth and realize that nothing happens by chance in our gov't, it is all planned by these evil devils that realy run our country, i mean common sense should tell somethings not right how IN THE FUCK CAN SUPER DELEGATES BE THE DECIDING FACTOR AND NOT US THE PEOPLE DOES THAT REALY SOUND RIGHT TO YOU PEOPLE,just look how bush stole the elections
