President Colbert

[Ineedaride2]

I don't even know if this should go in politics, but reading this in the AP press, and in USA Today made me decide to post it here.

I wonder how far Colbert will take this?

Colbert announces run for President (in SC)

[Ron Burgundy]

I'm hoping for a Colbert - Barry ticket.

Q: What's with that plagerizing copycat Colbert announcing for president? You've been doing that act for years. Why don't you challenge him to a debate?

A: He is afraid of me, which is why he refuses to answer my letters and runs away when I approach him on the street with a machete.

Oh God, the Ron Paul fans would go absolutely mental about all the internet popularity and popularity among young people. The share volume of googling of Ron Paul & Stephen Colbert would make the election unneccessary, they should move straight to the White House.

I'm pretty sure if he actually ran for elected office, he'd have to give up his job.

If watching "Man of the Year" has taught me anything, Colbert will put his job on hiatus for a few months, and make a horrible movie about the evils of election fraud, even though it was billed as a freaking comedy and I did not laugh one time and it was a stupid movie and I hope it dies and it goes to hell and all the people in hell rape Robbin Williams because he made me waste $10 on the worse [censored] MOVIE IN THE WORLD AND I HATE HIM AND IF HE IS READING THIS HE BETTER NOT MAKE "MAN OF THE YEAR 2" OR I WILL KILL MYSELF!!!

In conclusion, Stephen Colbert won't have to quit his job. Just look at John Kerry!

worse yet comedy central would be barred from showing any repeat episodes during the election. Or at least offer equal time to all his opponents. For Free.

Thats a pretty generous definition of the word "job" imo.
