Perhaps these were the monologues that didn't make it onto the Colbert Report. Yes there were many moments of cutting satire, but surrounding them was way too much over-cute, meaningless routines. Just stretching for time-in a REALLY short book to begin with. Over and over again I caught myself thinking-that's what he's doing here. Every once in a while, on the Colbert Report, you realized that Stephen just stretching for time.not enough material and 4 1/2 minutes to fill. I love Stephen Colbert, but this was such a disappointment. Covering subject's ranging from healthcare ("I shudder to think where we'd be without the wide variety of prescription drugs to treat our maladies, such as think-shuddering") to the economy ("Life is giving us lemons, and we're shipping them to the Chinese to make our lemon-flavored leadonade") to food ("Feel free to deep fry this book-it's a rich source of fiber"), Stephen gives America the dose of truth it needs to get back on track. Luckily, America Again will singlebookedly pull this country back from the brink. It's high time we restored America to the greatness it never lost! You have to dial an extension! Where did we lose our way?! Four Seasons Hotel doesn't even have a dedicated phone button for the Spa. Look around - we don't make anything anymore, we've mortgaged our future to China, and the Apologist-in-Chief goes on world tours just to bow before foreign leaders. You could say we're the number one nation at being the best at greatness.īut as perfect as America is in every single way, America is broken! And we can't exchange it because we're 236 years past the 30-day return window. Book store nation, in the history of mankind there has never been a greater country than America.
