Stephen Colbert and Stephen Colbert are actually very, very different. The Stephen Colbert who hosts "The Colbert Report" is staunchly conservative, dogmatic in his views and generally very ill-informed. The "real" Stephen Colbert is pretty much the exact opposite of that (and just plain charming, if we do say so ourselves). And when the "Report" Colbert starts Super PACs, runs for President, addresses Congress and otherwise interacts with the real world, seeing the "real" Colbert becomes somewhat of a treat.
