1. You didn't offer the obvious answer
He's already done it...more or less.

The only thing missing is the nice men in white coats.

2. He's getting pretty close. I caught a few minutes tonight. He actually

implied VERY strongly that the Christian Peacekeeping group whose members were kidnapped were sympathizing with terrorists. Then he said that Jesus wouldn't have sided with the terrorists, and when the woman he had on started asking whether Jesus would have invaded Iraq, all he could say is, "it's ridiculous. It's ridiculous. That group needs to be shut down." It was funny when he was saying "it's ridiculous" because HE was the one who started talking about what Jesus would or wouldn't have done and then when it got turned around on him he couldn't respond and started ranting. I did get furious though when he said the group should be shut down, and the woman was appalled. She shouted, "They're DOING THE WORK OF **CHRIST**!" And he repeated, "They should be shut down."

Edited: SHUT down, not SHOT down.

4. we'll know it when it happens and it will happen
some night some story about him will just literally send him him over the edge in a big way, like jumping up and down, maybe knocking over his desk and swearing a blue streak.

7. It's an act. What will be really funny is when he starts satirizing
Colbert.

10. I don't think he will melt down alone.
Behind his appearance of insanity I think he is a very calculated shit-stirrer. In other words once people stop eating his shit he'll stop producing it.

11. I think he already has!
And I think Steven Colbert mimics him pretty well without saying he is when he does his "my word" thing, like O'Really's "talking points"

Loofah anyone?
