Colbert Report mysteriously off the air for a few days, maybe longer?

JD was projecting what he thought Colbert might be doing.

If any on you GOP loving babies do not like being made fun of quit giving Colbert (and myself ) so much material!

Ever hear of the Colbert that cried "wolf"? That is the risk that people like Colbert and Al Sharpton take. They cry so often that if they have a real problem no one knows if they're serious. Think Andy Kaufman and his cancer. Some of his friends still think he will show up laughing.

This is his shop and trade. He makes up stuff and tries to pass it off as real. Someone once said (Randall Garrett) that satire is making something just short of unbelievable and then going up one more notch.

No he doesn't. Anyone who's watched Colbert can clearly tell when he's joking so suddenly disappearing is unlike him unless it was for a serious reason.

Then again I have my doubts you have even seen the show.

Y'all may know by now but Colbert's mother is ill.

just saying

Read what Randall Garrett said about satire lummocks. This thread started earlier than three days ago.

Running a show based on satire means you cry wolf when you take time off? What?

Who really gives a rat's ass about Colbert? I mean, I'm sorry his mom is sick, but to make such a big deal out of missing his crappy show is ridiculous. He's a moron, and he likes to show it off on TV. So he's gone for a few days. Who gives a shit?
