Colbert tearily unveils his new "1031 Project"
As the folks at "Morning Joe" were sharing guffaws over Glenn Beck's keerazee schtick the other day, some of them were speculating that Stephen Colbert might have to give up his parody-of-a-right-wing-talker act, since Beck had reached a level of self-parody that Colbert couldn't hope to match.
Au contraire.
Obviously, Beck is quickly becoming the most flavorful grist for Colbert's satirical mill. Witness the "1031 Project" unveiled last night -- inspired by Beck's "912 Project" lunacy.
The key line came after Colbert played the audio of Beck trashing the 9/11 victims' families back in 2005:
You know, it took me about a year to start hating the 9/11 victims' families. ... I don't hate all of them, I hate about, probably about ten of them. But when I see 9/11 victim family, you know, on television, or whatever, I'm just like, 'Oh, shut up.' I'm so sick of them. Because they're always complaining. And we did our best for them.
Colbert's rejoinder:
Good point. The 912 Project is not for families directly affected by 9/11. Just people building their careers on it.
Frist
That was the funniest thing last night
I don't think anyone could have criticized that "Glen Beck Friday" craporama any better than Colbert.
Thank you, David.
I saw this last night and was rolling in laughter!
One thing to notice....it was very funny, but did you hear the gasps the audience made in disapproval of Beck, after Colbert played that clip from 2005?
Someone really needs to put Beck in his place and show what an idiot fool he is; Stephen Colbert is just the man to do so!
Also should say, Thank You, Heather!
Yes, as does Jon Stewart. Hard to equal either for exploding all the sacred (to the right) cows. The gasps of the people listening to the Beck audio critical of 9/11 victims' families was quite audible.
Another 9/11 hypocrite is Limpballs, who is currently saying "drop dead" to the city who suffered the worst of the terrorist attacks. But he sure made hay of the tragedy right after occurred, as did the kee-ray-zee Beck.
The link just takes me to other Beck articles.
?
And beck is his own special brand of keeerazee!
I'm pronouncing it phonetically as it appears, and I don't get it. Keera zee?
Kee-Ray-Zee
More caffeine, pls thx
No that's D'Oh!

Didn't that get turned into a rap song?

(Update) The root base of that word is only three letters.

the British term is "arse" a four letter word. So... according to the Queen's English, the previous poster is within regulations.
Carry on...
Wasn't there a Britcom called Carry On Laughing, and another called What a Carve-Up?

You can't even cuss right ricky!
And my breath smells like fresh roses, I'll have you know!
I'll catch it tonight when they rerun it at 8
And here I thought Colbert was kvetching about Henry I succeeding his father Robert II as King of France, because he didn't vote for him.

... isn't just making fun of Beck, but of the people who went around proclaiming that they had a 'post-9/11 mindset.'
As opposed to? Are we post 7/4 types? How about post 12/7? Or maybe post 7/20?
I'm on a 4-20 mindset!
Oh yeah.
a 4/20 project.

me-oww!
... is closer to 5150.
(Section of California Welfare and Institution Code that allows for the detention and psychiatric evaluation of an individual.)
And people said that Obama's election would hurt Colbert and Stewart!
Normally it's impolite to make fun of the mentally challenged...this schizophrenic jerk is an exception.
Colbert knocks it outta the park again. The man is pure satirical comic genius.
He is, but remember to give credit to his brilliant team of writers, too -- as well as Jon Stewart and his team.
But Colbert's delivery is genius...
I love the way he can raise one eyebrow. I also love it when he almost cracks up laughing but restrains it ... which only makes it funnier to watch.
I love that about him too!
I bet he makes people piss themselves at parties...
I'd love to be able hang out with him and find out, lol!

has balls...gotta give him that...
It would have been funny enough to show the Beck clips, but somehow he finds a way to make it even funnier.
and the Daily Show with sadness. The only two shows that actually speak truth, and in America, they are viewed as comedies. WTF?
in America. Most people see that Colbert and Stewart tell the truth, and continue to watch.
In the states - we have to laugh at most of it to subside our rage.
But both Colbert and Stewart expose these dimwits for what they are, and slowly the majority of people who really THINK and use their brains spread the word about the REPUG and Conservative insanity.
We ARE actually winning - thanks to the Daily Show and Colbert report!

Last night when he jumped up from his desk with the gas mask and shotgun I laughed so loud I woke the dogs up.
I totally heart Colbert! Any man who can make me laugh the way he does deserves to be hearted. God, that was funny! His 10-31 plan was pure gold.
We have them surrounded. Who is them? Thems them.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
What an awesome rep for the GOP this guy is really shedding light on the antics of his party.
Remember those "Missing in Action" films Chuck Norris used to make? If Beck were a member of Chuckie's elite commando team and he started blubbering and crying the first time they came under fire, wouldn't Norris have slapped him down like the pantywaist mamma's boy Beck is, purely out of reflex?
I'm just saying...
there would have been a roundhouse kick to the head thrown in for good measure.
The sound of Beck's head exploding would have given away their position.
... a spinoff series:
Cry Hard. An LAPD detective (Beck) goes undercover to investigate a radical group.
Cry Harder. Beck returns as a hard-boiled but marginally psychotic LAPD detective to stare down islamocommusocialiberals before they can steal the presidential election.
Cry Hard: With A Vengeance. Tears really flow as Beck's tough-as-nails cop gets handcuffed to a scary black guy and must face problems posed by a terrorist who sounds like John Boehner affecting a British accent.
Live Free or Cry Hard. Everyone's favorite psycho cop has to protect a whistleblower who has critical information on the government's illegal torture program.
As we speak, Bruce Willis is phoning his lawyer.
Mebbe you should be beegtime comedy writer eh?
Dude, can I use that in a post? With link and credit, of course ...
but more likely, it would have sounded like a wet fart, and would have only caused laughter by those within earshot...
His portrayal of most Americans on 9-12 was perfect. Gas mask, gun and wearing adult diapers (as in about to wet our pants out of fear)
The reality of the truth and someone willing to tell it is priceless.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
Colbert should have thrown in a couple of bandoliers of duct tape to complete the effect.
... consisting of a duct-tape and plastic sheeting poncho, plus kitchen rubber gloves.

Weren't Jon Stewart and David Letterman called pussies for reacting almost exactly how Glenn Beck is acting now?
But Stewart and Letterman are filthy liberals...so i guess they were being fake.
Stewert and Letterman reacting like Beck?
I hardly think so.
They reacted in tears immediately after the attacks. They didn't use it as ploy, act deranged, or make it a big political thing like the Beckster.
Maybe Beck's suffering from Post Traumatic Stress. Only took seven years for the tears to start rolling.
No, it just took him seven years to figure out how to use 9-11 to his financial advantage.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
the right hasn't found anything new to capitalize on.

David L. Hill, congratulations!
Please stand by to find out what prices you just won!
Once again, congratulations!
because the McCain campaign folded before I got my golf ball covers.

You might want to read it again after adjusting your snark'o meter.
He's on your side.
edit: I admit that I had to read it twice myself... bit slow today I guess.
We needed another FDR, instead we got another clinton.
as kids say in the parlance of our times....
Well I suppose Beck does deserve some kind of credit for keeping millions of Americans in belly laughs in these trying times. Imagine if the millions of American pot heads who tune in to Glenn for a good rip roaring belly laugh only had re-runs of I Love Lucy instead.
I almost peed myself when he jumped out with that gun and mask!
Next time you watch Colbert, be sure to wear your adult diapers.

And the winner of the Oscar is .......... None of the above. But Colbert does deserve an emmy. Beck's acting doesn't even qualify for a poor production so off broadway it is on Easter Island.
There will NEVER be a deficit of material with which to parody the reich-wing lunatic re-Thugs. The jokes write themselves. C'mon - releasing a brain-dead "budget" on APRIL FOOL'S DAY?

Oh my goodness, does anyone care about "the folks at Mornin' Joes'
guffawing" at Glenn Beck??!!! Please may I guffaw at them ?! Imus won't address the issue of Mika's horrid on air personality and social skills while the rest of the show's cast sits idly by almost certainly because she is much too far beneath him and all of us. I used this opportunity to vent on that subject and to say hey Mr. Colbert, luv ya, and Beck just "loves his country". ~ils
Beck and others are tapping into a boiling pot of anger, anxiety, fear and resentment. Their language is incendiary and very dangerous. These people are armed and poorly informed, and some event is going to trigger them en masse. There are miilions of these types out there, and 2.2 millionof them are Beck fans. Dismissing him as a kook is ignoring this building potential explosion.
He should seriously start a 10/31 website. Beck has a goal of getting one millions "members" by 9/12. How fucking funny would it be if Colbert got more on a "joke" website than dipshit gets on his?
Let's DO IT!!!!

would get alot more people than beck, HA!
I pissed in my pants. I never piss in my pants. I know George Carlin is laughing in his coffin.
