comedy central insider
Stephen Colbert is #1! Well, not quite actually. He is, however, the Top Write-In Candidate in Foreign Policy Magazine’s list of The World’s Top 20 Public Intellectuals. I thought these kinds of lists were usually resigned to issues of Entertainment Weekly, Rolling Stone and just about every other page of Blender, but, as it turns out, intellectuals also enjoy numerically categorizing their preferences. Just like you and me, they slip on their pleated, tweed slacks one leg at a time.
I am not sure how a super patriot like Colbert feels about being in the company of Islamic leaders Fethullah Gulen, Amr Khaled, and some obscure weirdo named Al "Jazeera" Gore, but I’m positive his brand of comedy fits in with the hilarious hijinks of noted linguist Noam Chomksy. Seriously, Topics in the Theory of Generative Grammar is up there with I Am America (And So Can You!) on my personal list of Top 20 Most Humorous Books Written by Public Intellectuals.
Even though Colbert is not a number (he is a free man) it is nice to see him written in by the readers of Foreign Policy as their Top Write-In Candidate. I am confident that he will be eligible for the #1 spot on Foreign Policy’s upcoming World’s Top 20 Ballsiest Human Beings Ever list.

Please read this long article and see the truth about this deeply dangerously islamist imam! Also he is not a danger only for Turkey but has really big Islamist ambitions for the whole world that he would never admit! http://www.meforum.org/2045/fethullah-gulens-grand-ambition
ıt mustnot be too easy o say bad things about a person who is konown as a world famous intellectual. Every person I read from different sources with very deifferent views from him feel ashamed of their prejudice before meeting him. He can talk to a sociologist as a sociologist, a scientist as a physicist. An intellectual does not need to be a number one in formal education as we have many examples from the Ppast.
Also his talk in Turkish may consist of words from Arabic. This is because sıome words dont have equivalents in other languages.
also an intellectual does not need to be able to speak many languages.
You can not have the right to say bad things about a person's talk, clothes or the way he looks. Everone has to respect the others. In the same way everybody can say much more bad things about Bush for example especislly if you hate him. It is something ridiculous.
These words imply that the person writing those silly things above can not stand real intellectuals and mostly the diversity in the world.
Fethullah Gulen is only an illiterate cult leader (is not even a primary school graduate but he graduates from primary school taking exams from outside ?!!!) waiting to return to Turkey at the proper time if secular western modern Turks lose the battle against these islamist fanatics one day, just like Homeyni of Iran.
While he can’t even speak proper educated Turkish, how can he read, and write and speak in English is my personal question. Chech the google videos of Fethullah Gulen in his own ugly fanatic words-but unfortunately all only in Turkish!
Whatever he says, or writes or preaches to the west is very different from his/their original ideas and are all lies becase the videos at you tube and google in turkish, in his own native mother tongue tell all the turth about this fanatic illiterate cult leader and their fanatic sharia dreams. Ask any secular modern Turkish people and they will tell you the truth about him and his cult and their fanatic sheria dreams for Turkey. Turks are going to be the next Iran if he and his followers succeed!
So he may call himself even Einstein of moslem world and/or Turkey. By the way what makes you believe he is what he says he is because the most prominent characteristics of these fanatic Islamist are “takiyye” which means you may lie whenever it serves your own purpose!
So how does this happen ??? An intellectual??? Please get real and think about it
Colbert can blow me. His shtick sucks.. He had the ability to educate and inform through comedy like Jon, but instead seems to have gotten so wrapped up in his persona that reality is a distant speck on the horizon.
