Stephen Colbert is not one to stay mum about... well, anything. But his parody show, the "Colbert Report" has suspended production on Comedy Central and will be airing reruns for the rest of the week, the network confirms. And people are wondering why. In fact, Comedy Central is staying pretty hush-hush about the suspension as well, saying in a statement: “Due to unforeseen circumstances, the show will air repeat episodes on Wednesday, February 15 and Thursday, February 16.”

Some sources told the New York Daily News that host Stephen Colbert had a family emergency to take care of, but that's not been confirmed. Whatever the reason, it is a bit eery to witness such inaction from Colbert himself. Even Colbert's normally vibrant Twitter account hasn't been updated since February 14. Will you miss the "Colbert Report" during its suspension? Do you even watch the show?

So I'm guessing you don't see the typical heartless thug-life left wing nutjobs (see? It's fun to put details isn't it even though it has nothing to do with his views on tragedy) that say this stuff everyday? Congrats!

But seriously though, it doesn't matter WHAT side he belongs to. Both sides have had people say it's okay that people may be suffering a family tragedy just because of their political stance or a deep hatred for that person, and both sides have their people that actually care.

But that does not mean we shouldn't call them out when they are so stupid as to demonstrate their rabid behavior.

You're right, but don't insult their political sides. Both sides have those kinds of people. Just call them out for the monster they are, but leave politics out of it.

Oh, great; ANOTHER one!

How's about you point to even ONE "typical heartless thug-life left wing nutjob", instead of just trying to paint an entire different group with fictional sins that actually ARE a main part of YOUR side, the Right wing? Heck, it's YOU folks who are PROUD of being heartless! After all, it's part of your credo and platform to let thousands suffer for the greater good! A "greater good", I'd add, that none of you specify or can show exists in reality. For the most part, you folks don't even try to

Yeah, okay. You want to blame my side for everything, fine. Just your comment here prove that you're one of those monsters.
I don't have the time to spend on people like you so you're getting blocked. Have a nice day and a great life. : )

I'm leaning toward Pat Rebertson being fired for his Racist Redneck Conservative Book as the Best News Of the Century so far. He whined and cried about the "Blacklisters" getting him fired. The trouble you have with Colbert is that he made all you bigots look as stupid as you really are. A sharp wit is a wicked weapon when someone like Colbert is weilding it. Seems like you felt the sting.

I wouldn't think of watching that idiot. The only time I've seen him is when the cuts of his program on other shows. I could never understand WHY anyone would watch him or that other idiot that does the same type of crap. I find it very annoying when I see him shown on other shows programs. He isn't just boring he is A VERY, VERY STUPID BORE.

Ah a racist that only sees race and not facts. Do you always play the Victim? How about being a Victor instead and get out of the race hating business. That's all you on the left have since you can't run on substance.

Do you enjoy being a Sock puppet?
