[See NewsBusters for more.] If you’re an independent, moderate or a Republican, don’t go looking to Stephen Colbert for comedy. The live edition of The Late Show on Tuesday night showed, yet again, that he’s mostly speaking to his Democratic base. If you were expecting jokes on high gas prices, there weren’t any. If you were expecting a mocking of Biden for skyrocketing inflation, there was one lame mention that amounted to six seconds. Instead, we got “jokes” like this one: “We are live after Joe Biden's first official State of the Union address. And let me tell you: It was a roller-coaster ride of rip-roaring reasonableness.” It’s hard to be funny when your jokes amount to “Why are you so great, Mr. President?”
