| I am writing a book ... aren't you all excited? |

Yes, it's true ... I will bring the Truth in published form.
Yahoo ran this story about me and my book:
Comedy Central's Colbert to Write Book
First "Fake News," now "Truthiness." The publisher of Jon Stewart's million-selling "America (The Book)" is releasing a book by Stephen Colbert.
"This book will have the same noble goal as my television show: to change the world one factual error at a time," Colbert said Tuesday in a statement issued by Warner Books.
Colbert's book, currently untitled, is scheduled to come out in the fall of 2007. Colbert, a longtime fixture on Stewart's "Daily Show," now hosts "The Colbert Report," also aired on Comedy Central.
Colbert also has a background with words. He contributed to "America (The Book)," co-authored "Wigfield" with Amy Sedaris and Paul Dinello and is credited with coining "truthiness," named Word of the Year for 2005 by the American Dialect Society.
"Truthiness" is the quality of stating concepts one wishes or believes to be true, rather than the facts.
I am glad to see that the liberal media machine is starting to come around regarding crediting me for creating the word "Truthiness." Damn liberal media elite, in their ivory towers with their gay, communist pot-smoking agenda.

Did you guys like my new hairstyle? It's a new feel for me ... as slick as the shit out of a duck's ass. I think it makes me look more important and sexier. Especially sexier; the new girl in the office said so (do you hear that, Charlene?).

So that liberal pussy Russ Lieber finally agreed to come be on the show last night. Man, did you guys see how I totally smoked him by changing the topic from Organic Farming to Minimum Wage? And how priceless was it to see him scramble when I played the 9/11 card? Even I was impressed by my superior intellect last night.
I know Jon did an entire show on the State of the Union last night, but I figured that you, dear Nation, were so on top of that subject (I know I was!) that we could kind of gloss over it. However, I will say this: I've never seen such a sour puss on Hilary Clinton as when the President made the joke about how he and Bill Clinton were turning 60 this year.

Hey, big day for us today, Nation. Not only do we get to relish every word of the President's State of the Union speech tonight, we get to do it LOADED because I am popping the cork now to celebrate the confirmation of Justice Alito.
Take that, Sandra Day O'Connor! I think that will teach you to ever retire from anything ever again! Why couldn't you take a cue from Rehnquist and just die in office?

Man, did you guys catch the warm up act for The Colbert Report last night, aka The Daily Show? Ed Helms did a great piece on his dissatisfaction with being a correspondant for the show.
It was great -- I mean, when I did that I got my own show! Although I do deserve it far more than Ed does; not necessarily because he is less talented than me (which he is) but rather because he has said some things that frankly scare me over the years.
He even "purchased" the Moment of Zen to babble on about wanting to be an astronaut. I mean, c'mon, at least wish to be a race car driver or something like that, something actually do-able. Why not wish just to become a dolphin for Christ's sake?
Well good luck anyway Ed. Get off that sinking ship while there's still time. ;)

You know, it was gratifying to hear the Washington Post fashion editor Robin Givhan echo what I've always known -- my attire screams "powerful," "sexy" and most importantly, "OBEY."
Not too sure what she's getting at here.
Man, it's great to walk out of the building and have people notice you, not because you're the King of late night basic cable TV, but because your suit says, "I am a wealthy and powerful man who could -- and might -- crush you like the insignificant bug you are."
Do you hear that, Charlene? The Washington Post's fashion critic thinks I'm hot!

Did you guys catch my Golden Fiddle on the show last night? I've been waiting for years to bust that out. I hope you enjoyed -- and were really impressed by -- my fiddling skills. I am The Man.

| Public-See |
[Friday

The more and more I think about the idea of Public-See, the more I realize its potential benefits.
For instance, I could look up what the President had for breakfast this morning. Or not ... they would probably still keep the President's breakfast a secret. But you know, regular-celebrity people, like Brittany Spears -- you could see what she had for breakfast, for example. I'll bet it was pancakes.

You know, it's funny that these Kennedys keep trying to get away with things like this. Please Mr. Kennedy, we knew that one of the Liberals had an illegitimate baby; yes, we thought it was McCain, and yes, we thought it was an illegitimate black baby. What we meant to say was that it's Kennedy, and it's an illegitimate white baby. You say tomato ...
