He needs to do more of this video archivist stuff where he responds outlining the person's hypocrisy.
The 9/11-families-9/11-exploiters dichotomy was too strong a point not to do something similar every night. I just feel that he treads more lightly than Stewart on average, and I wish he were a bit tougher. I guess I could be wrong about that.
I think the difference is, Stewart plays it straight, Colbert has to try and act out his screen persona. That limits him in a way - although to me, makes him funnier.
Eh, pick one! Toss in "pathetic" and "propagandist", too. :D
Beck made it clear he was talking about the dozen or so "victims" that are constantly in the media whining about something or other. The one that stands out for me is the sister of a victim who went on to promote just about every socialist/communist cause she could get involved in by waving the bloody shirt of her sister's death.
I don't recall her sister bequeathing this crusade to her family. :P
