Stephen Colbert Declares War On Kanye West

Stephen would like to thank Colbert Nation for making his Xmas album #1 on iTunes, except he can't because that slot belongs to "sunglasses mannequin Kanye West." In an effort to humble Kanye West, he's launching Operation: Humble Kanye West, which means everybody buy his Xmas album tomorrow at 5PM. Watch and learn. While you're in the Jesus spirit, Kanye recently delivered his thoughts on not wanting to be Christ-like at a press conference in New Zealand, just in time for the holidays. (He later back-peddaled, which is totally un-Christ-like.)

No, it doesn't pass as "liberal social commentary" for us in the States. It passes as very incisive comedy, with a terrific knack for poking fun at the American political climate. There's a huge difference.

I think Kanye has the hots for Brandon Flowers. Well, he did award him the "fresh kid"-title and applauded his style on his blog. I hope that doesn't mean that Kanye's going to be wearing dead animals on his shoulders anytime soon.
