COMEDIAN SAYS BRUSH WITH CANDIDACY GAVE HIM NEW PERSPECTIVE… I THINK
Popular Comedy Central host and Charleston native Stephen Colbert told Entertainment Weekly that his brief endeavor as a presidential candidate gave him a new perspective on what it means to run for public office. Or something like that.

Rep. Bob Inglis of South Carolina’s “Fightin’ Fourth” District took to Comedy Central’s Colbert Report Wednesday night as the 50th installment of the show’s 434 part series “Better Know a District.” During the interview, Inglis was “grilled” for providing “faulty umbrella intelligence” to President Bush in a letter he wrote about the [...]
Former presidential candidate Stephen Colbert interviewed Gov. Mark Sanford to launch a new spin-off segment called “better know a governor.” Sanford, who Colbert referred to as “the most boring U.S. governor,” was grilled on the Confederate flag issue and Bar-B-Que.
