The most geniunely courageous and intelligent All-American HERO.
A former correspondant of Jon
Stewart's "The Daily Show", he was so great that he was given a spin-off show that ended up being just about as successful. Called "The Colbert Report", the show centres around an illogical right-wing egomaniac who attempts to deliver the news with a splash of truthiness.
Colbert was the entertainer for the
2006 White House Correspondents' Association Dinner. There, only a few feet away from the
President George W. Bush himself, Colbert gave a comedy routine reminiscent of his familiar fake news program. The hilarious speech was actually a thinly veiled attack on Bush's administration, and though faced with an expectedly unreceptive audience, Colbert charmed and awed his supporters at
home.
His great bravery was exemplified that
day, broadcast nationwide on C-SPAN, though barely mentioned by the media the next morn - because of the fact that Colbert had criticised them in his speech.
Colbert is
seen as a true hero for his courage, a great comedian for his
wit, and a genius for his biting
logic.
