Stephen Colbert -- Tool

Good comedians (and reporters) make fun of whomever is in power. Colbert's shtick during the last Administration of mocking Conservatives using Bill O'Reilly's format was unique and fulfilled it's purpose.

Now? Stephen Colbert has less reasons for a show using that format then Jar Jar Binks had for being in the Star Wars films. Yes Stephen, you are Jar Jar.

If Colbert was actually brave and "Speaking Truth to Power," on January 21, 2009, his format and style would have changed. He could have spent the next 4 years mocking President Obama and Keith Olbermann. But he can't, even Jon Stewart knocks the Obama Administration once in a while. Look below:

Not Colbert.

So remember, Colbert is a Tool. Unless he changes his format, let Comedy Central know that too.

Know who isn't a tool? Lewis Black. He is a true comedian whereas Colbert remains a hack. Here's Lewis Black:
