Poll: Stewart or Colbert? I have to go with Colbert. - loosilu Aug 27, 18:30 24
- Colbert -- nm - con_carne Aug 27, 20:11
- i think colbert is better at his job but I enjoy TDS more then colbert report. - tRuMaN Aug 27, 18:52
- definitely Stewart. -- nm - kelly Aug 27, 18:51
- Colbert, by far. -- nm - nubby Aug 27, 18:50

- I've never been able to stand Colbert. He's too self-aware of how funny he thinks he is. -- nm - prayformojo Aug 27, 18:46

      - I've seen a few guests hold their own (such as Neil Gaiman). O'Reilly did great. I don't think Beck has been on. -- nm - loosilu Aug 27, 18:46
- Jon Stewart. I don't even record Colbert anymore. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 27, 18:37 4
  - I don't think we can be friends. -- nm - loosilu Aug 27, 18:37 3
    - I can live with that. - JaxSean Aug 27, 18:43 2
      - OMG, I hate you too! anyway, just because Stewart airs 30 minutes earlier doesn't mean he did it first. -- nm - loosilu Aug 27, 18:44 1
        
        On my TiVo he did. -- nm - JaxSean Aug 27, 19:10
- Stewart. I might be related to Colbert. ;) -- nm - the liioulu with notebooks Aug 27, 18:32
- I have never watched an entire show of either one. So, don't know -- nm - I'm Bacon Aug 27, 18:32 3
