Got some Kleenex? You'll need it for this. Stephen Colbert returned to hosting 'The Colbert Report' last night (June 19) and opened the show with a heartfelt tribute to his late mother, who died last week at the age of 92. In doing so, he slipped out of his right-wing conservative character (something he almost never does) and was just Stephen Colbert, grieving son.

Stephen Colbert, host of 'The Colbert Report,' poked fun at country singer Brad Paisley's newest song 'Accidental Racist' --in which Brad basically tries to solve racism by teaming up with LL Cool J and doing things like apologizing for that one time he wore a Confederate flag T-shirt because he loves Lynyrd Skynyrd. To sum things up, with lyrics like "If you don't judge my gold chains / I'll

Academy Award-winning actor Jeremy Irons recently had some rather bizarre things to say about gay marriage. Specifically that if gay marriage is allowed, fathers will marry their sons to get tax-free real estate, which is a super logical jump. What's next? Equality for minorities? In response, satirist Stephen Colbert had some witty and biting commentary on the matter, and even a message from Kok

Stephen Colbert, who of course spoofs a wingnut conservative on his show 'The Colbert Report,' was shocked and disheartened to learn that FOX's Bill O'Reilly doesn't really give a hoot about gay marriage one way or the other. Which is pretty shocking considering Bill O'Reilly has spent his whole career hooting about something.

GOP Representative Marco Rubio was probably hoping he'd be able to skate by with an impromptu sip of water during his response to Barack Obama's State of the Union address on Tuesday, Feb. 12, but the worst Poland Spring endorsement ever did not escape the notice of political late-night hosts Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert the following night.

When news broke that South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint was resigning at the end of the year, several media outlets decided that Stephen Colbert -- who grew up in the Palmetto State -- would make a great replacement. And 'The Colbert Report' host sees no reason to rebuff their efforts. Sounds like Ashley Judd may not be the only celebrity considering a senatorial run. Or ... not.

  Cormamin lindua ele lle, Stephen Colbert. That's Elvish for "Stephen Colbert, you are the coolest man on this or any other planet." Except that's definitely not how you say that in Elvish. In celebration of the upcoming release of 'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey,' uber-nerd and enormous J.R.R. Tolkien fan Colbert is holding a special Hobbit-themed week on his show 'The Colbert Repor
