Wait, you mean Colbert isn't serious?

Jon Stewart is funnier to me.

Colbert, though, is extremely clever. It's like he's playing a character that self aggrandizes, but the real him isn't that (which throws people), except that it is, but just exaggerated...only slightly...and that's the joke. Plus he's wittier, and banterier and punnier...
I agree on all points. I love Colbert!

Colbert is way better.

All Stewart does is play stuff and then stare blankly and dumbfounded for a few seconds and then attack. There's way more to Colbert, his segments are better, and he has layers of funny.

Colbert's humor is the best. I laugh just thinking about some of the stuff he says. Even stuff I don't really understand (because I don't follow all streams of politics) somehow is funny to me.

Neither

Let me put it another way.... David Letterman is funnier (and I don't consider him to be funny, either)
