Published: October 28, 2008BROOKSVILLE – Brian Moore, the presidential candidate from Spring Hill out to prove that socialism isn’t a dirty word, is slated today to face what could prove to be his toughest interviewer yet: Comedy Central’s Stephen Colbert.
Moore will appear on The Colbert Report tonight to talk about his candidacy at the top of the Socialist Party ticket. The show airs at 11:30 p.m. and the episode will air again Wednesday at 10:30 a.m. and 2:30 and 7:30 p.m.
Colbert satirizes the talking heads of the cable news networks, with a shtick that takes conservatism to outrageous extremes. The result: Guests with a liberal slant get skewered.
Moore said he’s preparing to be mocked.
“But I feel comfortable with that, because we’re used to it,” a laughing Moore said Monday morning before he left his home on Hunter’s Lake, bound for Tampa International Airport. He caught a 5 p.m. flight to New York City, where the show is taped. “I think I can turn the tables and mock capitalism.”
. . .
oh, this should be really fun! I’m sure the Colbert character will be dialed up to over 9000.

I just wanna make a shout out for my hometown Spring Hill! WOO! Way to contribute to the overall lunacy of my favorite Sunshine State, Hernando County.
Spring Hill is now officially on the map!
I wish Stephen would do a “Better Know” segment on us. The Fightin’ 43rd… where early Spanish sailors went ga-ga over the sexy Weeki Wachee mermaids… until they took off their grog goggles and realized they were actually manatees.
