Following Oliver Stone's appearance on the Colbert Report on 10/9/08, it appears that he may actually be the nuttiest right-wing-nut-job of them all.
To have Oliver Stone tell it,
"[George W. Bush] is on his way to being a great president."
To which the crowd erupted in laughter.
The interview turned surreal when Stephen Colbert jokingly stated:
Maybe you could suspend that constitution and give him 8 more years...
Mr. Stone agreed with him in astonishing deadpan.
UPDATE: I thought it was a joke too at first, but there is a real tinge that makes me think this guy might actually be serious...
UPDATE II: I'm a HUGE Colbert fan. But we've seen him egg on real nutjobs before just to see how high he can get them flying. I fully acknowledge that he is the supreme champ of satire, and if this IS a joke, maybe he should rope-a-dope some real whack jobs to expose how lost they are.
Well done. A little scary, but well done.
Okay, FINAL UPDATE: Kind of neat having my first post where more than 3 people saw it. Didn't expect that!
So I am waaaay hip to Colbert's Schtick. What I didn't expect was Oliver Stone to actually outslick a can of oil. Joking or not, this movie is not going to be the firey exposé that we are all hoping for. Not Ferenheit 911 II so to speak. It should be, but it ain't.
