The author may not have been familiar with Colbert. I can see him coming to that conclusion if he's never watched The Colbert Report. It seems as if someone at Huffpost would've caught that, though. hehe Perhaps someone did, and wanted this guy to make an ass of himself.
It's surprising how so many people have a difficult time recognizing satire. I have personally come across a number of conservatives that frickin' love Colbert because he "gets it" and shares their worldview. Never could find the heart to break it to them. EDIT: Of course, the article itself could be satire. Then I'd feel silly.
I am disappointed with HUFPO. They are liberal. They should know that Cobert's old show was a character poking fun of right wing dogmatism. The interview was an act, a set up, because Bill has said those almost exact words before elsewhere. Steve was using the fake invite to church, to allow Bill to state the reality that the writers were scientifically ignorant. There was no real anger or tension at all.
