Nat Geo Wild

More tonight about SCSCSCRD. That's right, Stephen Colbert's South Carolina Serious, Classy Republican Debate looks like the details are getting finalized. While initial plans were to have it on Animal Planet, now plans are to have it on Nat Geo Wild. And all because Stephen got an edible fruit bouquet. Mark your calendar. Stephen doesn't have a date yet, so yes that makes it difficult, but Stephen suggested marking every day next year so that you don't miss it.

You can expect that there will be political news any time you turn on the TV, listen to the radio or pick up a newspaper. Mitt Romney has picked up another endorsement from a political insider. Christine O'Donnell (of I'm not a witch fame) has endorsed Mitt Romney. But what about flip flops? No problem. You see, according to Christine O'Donnell, "He's been consistent since he changed his mind."

Commercial sponsors. Just go look. I can't believe this product exists, but Stephen demonstrated it on his show tonight.

Tonight's guest was Ray Odierno, Chief of Staff, United States Army. No, he did not wear a TV hat. Stephen and Ray Odierno talked about the troops. They are coming home from Iraq by the end of the year. Stephen asked what he would say to employers about these young people coming back and needing jobs and General Odierno made a pitch to employers to hire these highly qualified and well disciplined men and women.

And then, to refresh Stephen's memory, he asked, "Didn't we make a bet that when we finally left Iraq you would let me shave your head one more time?"

It's not often that guests can make Stephen laugh, but Stephen did laugh while denying that any such bet had been made. After an unsuccessful attempt to get General Odierno to throw his hat into the Republican ring, the two men sang "I'll Be Home For Christmas" as a tribute to the troops.
