    I'm guessing he means they should act like a conservative audience? Boo the liberals and cheer the repubs?

    I like the Colbert Report, but find that the interviews are often even more polarizing than Jon's, which is to say that I'll usually watch Jon's interview with some interest almost no matter who it is, Colbert's are either pure gold (like when he had Dean Kamen on in early April showing off a new prosthetic arm that kicked ass) or really boring. Also, he's started having more musical guests on, and I'm rarely interested in them so on the up side that makes it easier to get to bed before midnight.

    That would be fine too
    Instead it's just a HUR HUR WE HATE REPUBLICANS echo chamber like Stewart's audience

    Ideally they should cut the audience altogether

    I disagree. I think both shows work with a live audience, and that if either of them could cut it, it's the Daily Show.

    Colbert's cult of personae schtick just simply works so much better with fans in the audience.

    Although by his own account he was not particularly political before joining the cast of The Daily Show, Colbert is a self-described Democrat.[75][76] In an interview at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard Institute of Politics, he stated that he has "no problems with Republicans, just Republican policies."[77] He is also a practicing Roman Catholic,[15] as well as a Sunday school teacher.[78][79][80]

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Colbert#Personal_life

    There are citations for those facts as well.

    Again... why is this a bad thing?

    uh, yes

    faith is kinda all about not looking at things critically

    Faith is a choice, though. If you've never considered the alternatives, how can you say you really made that choice?

    Stewart and Colbert are two different flavors. I like them both very much, but I can have a hard time with Stewart laughing at his own jokes and not letting people speak in interviews.

    Honestly, being a catholic sunday school teacher does not indicate "JESUS FREAK". Most of the adults in the congregation will teach Sunday school at one time or another.

    I vastly prefer Stewart to Colbert

    Stewart's got this sincerity about him that really makes me respect what he has to say, while Colbert is just a little too caught up in his character to get the same points across

    also I cannot stand watching Colbert's interviews

    Stewart will occasionally get on his high horse when interviewing someone he doesn't particularly agree with, but Colbert's almost always insufferable

    why have a guest if you're not going to let them talk about what they're there for?
