Stephen Colbert Roasts President Bush 2006

At the 2006 White House Correspondents Dinner, Stephen Colbert "roasted" the President and many many people in key places in the administration.
A lot of what he said I just couldn't believe, and watching the presidents response was interesting to say the least.

Lemme know what you think..

I suppose the conspiracy is the truth behind the jokes perhaps.. I don't know, you be the judge I just find it messed up

YESSSSS

this was sweet a slap in the face that was much deserved and delivered in a humorous way brilliant

while there are things that i didn't agree with i find it almost unbelievable to see the president made fun of to his face, considering he is an elite power hungry P O S oh wait is this space being watched he is great


WATCH IT

p.s it is from april 2006

What I think is really bad is that this is probably the one and only time anyone got to speak like that anywhere near Bush.

Since then even the people around him, that were fully qualified to advise him, have been removed and swapped out for others whenever they disagreed with him.

I honestly still don't get how Colbert pulled that one of.

Well, I thought that was pretty funny, I understand why so many people watch his show. I have to admit that I very rarely watched his show, but that was very entertaining. I loved the "china will sell it to us for 3 cents a unit" . I dont think bush thought it was very funny and he actually looked kind of pissed.

If you go back and study, some rituals that include groups of people, this was very interesting to say the least.. It makes me wonder about Stephen Colbert in all honesty.
It was all done on purpose.. Bush knew what was going to happen, its adding insult to injury (literally)

Its a way of telling the public... "What you don't think, I, the president, don't know what you think?"
Its a way of demonstrating that he is aware of our perception of him...
I think Bush may really, and honestly take to heart what people think of him despite what he may say... I can see it in his eyes... But he's caught up in the momentum ... I see a conflicted individual, not in a bad sense, but much lke everyone else, he seems (stressed) which is obviously understandable.. But theres something I can't place my finger on, Something that's being done openly .. for a reason... but it hasn't become evident yet..

All I have to say is.... All you Bush haters... Just keep in mind, Everyone human is physically capable of doing the same and worse.
You'd be better of being his friend and speaking with him one-on-one rather than bash him with no idea of what is REALLY going on in his brain.. regardless of whether its positive or negative..

I hate to say it, but his little plan worked and it seems like we're going to have to intelligently debate this whole thing with him as a nation, perhaps as a planet.. lol
It's funny, because you all call him un-intelligent, and a bumbling idiot... and than you look at his effect ... How many more intelligent people are there now? .. he caused millions of people to "wake-up" .. Got millions of people reading again...
You may see some oil and money and all that crap... but I see something totally different happening..
The landscape of our internal habitation has changed drastically.

that was awesome, bunch of people not laughing at funny jokes.

LOL!

Colbert is the man!



i cant believe he got away with that. He's good at making fun of people yet not really offending them, and makin them laugh about it.


defintely a huge slap in the face to many

That was so funny.

He probably attacked the president in the only way that was possible; with humor, which made it look as though it was partly an act. I think if he was a bit more serious they would've taken him off the stage lol.

Or was it on his show? No it wasn't I don't think.

Just watch it.

Lol.. thought just crept up in my head around 10 mins in.. mosquito powered car-thereabouts.

"Somebody's going to die soon"

bush looks furious truth hurts?

His roast was absolutely brilliant! (no matter what 'side' you're on)

That wasnt even an official roast it was a White House Correspondents dinner. colbert walked into a room of very powerful people and verbally gave them the finger for almost a half an hour... But he plays it so straight it totally disarms everyone.. they rarely laugh .. colberts genius short circuited theyre brains. they didnt even know what hit them.
