Colbert brings his sarcastic charm to a half-hour report, tackling the important issues of the day and telling his guests why their opinions are just plain wrong. Stephen stands for truthiness and his American right to copyright that word and claim ownership of it. I AM AMERICA the audiobook, features an all-American cast that includes Paul Dinello, Kevin Dorff, Greg Hollimon, Evie McGee, David Pasquesi, Amy Sedaris, Allison Silverman, Bryan Stack, and Jon Stewart. Stephen Colbert describes his audiobook as a simple audiobook from a simple mind--Stephen Colbert. It is one man's attempt to wedge his brain between hardback covers---in this case CD jackets. In plain conversational language, not to mention the occasional grunt and/or whistle, Stephen explains his take on the most pressing concerns of our culture: Faith, Family...Hygiene. Why now? Stephen fears America has lost its balls and he hopes to re-ballify us. Even the ladies. Ladies can have balls--lady-balls too. Stephen likes to call those "Thatchers." Stephen will show how he got his mammoth swinging sack, with tales of courage and vital documents from his own life: the Mother's Day card he made at age six, disputed credit card bills, putt-putt score cards--all the major milestones. Oh and don't buy this if you don't have any balls! But if you do buy it, you will get them, and then you can buy another copy with a clean conscience. (2008) Average Rating:

His tongue-in-cheek, extreme rightwing pundit character is just as politically incorrect as ever, and just so so funny. Complete with his opinion everywhere, including in the margins, it encompasses everything we love about "The Colbert Report." Aside from a few distracting typos (which, according to one sentence in the end of the book, may or may not have been put there ...

Rating: - So far so good....Read the first few chapters and it is very Stephen Colbert. Whitty, funny, in depth, blunt...good book so far Rating: - Funny bookGood price and got what I ordered. The book is funny. Not very informative but an easy read and great way to pass time Rating:  - Don't waste your time or moneyDownloads in 15 seconds, and takes about as long to figure out that he was simply capitalizing on his celebrity. I THOUGHT I would enjoy a light, funny read but instead subjected myself to a long run-on disjointed and runaway thought train that seemed to have no real destination. I eventually stopped reading after giving him some room to be funny or interesting, or SOMETHING. But now I have a new resentment in my life... that he's taking up room on my Kindle, plus it's a frequent reminder that I ... Read More
