Janet Mock on Colbert Show

[Charlize]

I just saw the clip of Janet Mock on the Colbert Show. I'm sure the episode can be googled. It was an interesting and amusing interview. Colbert was his usual "right wing" self but her answers and his attitude showed a very accepting an open attitude. All in all i find her a good speaker. We of course all have our own experience so i don't agree with all of her statements but i do respect her poise and beauty. Better her than me, that's for sure!

Hugs,

Charlie

I am not sure I would say colbert is right wing... it's just part of his satire. He is generally a pretty middle of the road moderate and he has proven to be very *socially liberal. I love Colbert he is the man!

Edit: hahaha awesome video!

That was very clever and cute. I prefer Jon Stewart, but I have a feeling she might make it over to his desk, too.

Ah yes....gotta love him! He supports the right people. And he is just joking when he says things like:

(Each (TG) was a slur on the show.)

Heres a general rule of thumb I have: if you dont know whether youve made a particular mistake more or less than 50 times, thats not really a mistake. At that point, its something you do.

For instance, how many times have I accidentally picked up a (TG) hooker at a truck-stop? I wanna say its in the 50s, but it could be higher. I-I-i- guess what Im saying is Im nearsighted?

By the way, turns out Hermoine is a dude. Spoiler alert.

Governor Bob Riley, of Alabama, is fond of banana puddingwhen served off the breasts of a Thai (TG).

President Elect, Obama is meeting every day with his transition team, or in beltway lingo, (TGs).

Cmon democratic party. Play along! If your party does not implode, well have to go with our backup scandal. Ed Rendell is a (TG)!

These serviceman are just innocent small town kids wandering a big city rife with temptations Left to their own devices, these brave young souls could fall prey to some very dangerous characters. [shows clips of Sex in the City] By which I mean (TG).

And on and on. Up until late last year it was about once a week usually. It doesn't bother me. One of the top shows in the country, How I Met Your Mother, with famous gay Neil Patrick Harris has relied on the same humor year after year.

Janet Mock has no problem going on that show, because she's pushing a book and the demographics line up. But there is article after article about how Pierce Morgan only THINKS he's an ally.

Makes sense to me.

I also prefer Jon Stewart, he is a more intellectual but Colbert is more lovable... he is funny in a refreshingly childish way, which is great when you are talking politics lol.
