Conservatives need some funny writers, people. There are a million good jokes out there waiting to be written but dang - conservatives don't seem to have any funny people.
Kids today think videos of people falling and literally snapping an arm are extremely funny, so....

Okay -- don't watch.

Conservatives are still void of funny people.

I watched enough to form an opinion and I'm voicing mine same as he did. I'm not calling for his firing.

Really.

Once your guy has publicly called for the assassination of his political opponent, the argument that Colbert unfairly crossed a line is weak. Weak.

He was great on the Report but I don't think this format works for him.

But I agree, Conservative funny people=Dennis Miller? And he hasn't been funny in a long time.

Can you imagine the uproar if a conservative comedian said that about Obama?

I'm probably part of the "younger" generation. I prefer Rickles or Carlin over these new batch of loser hosts.

The problem is...they aren't being funny, they're just attacking with the SAME jokes OVER and OVER and OVER and OVER again. It gets boring and stale after a while.

"OMG TRUMP MADE A STUPID TWEET TODAY! LETS "JOKE" ABOUT IT FOR 10 MINS HERP DERP!"

No, I do not think so.

Let's see how the media and the over the top liberals handle this.
I am banking on hypocrisy.

It just makes America look stupid to other countries when people say such horrid things about our President.
The office of Presidency.
