aracter s apparent bravado to expose a very weak inner core in one instance colbert demands one of his staff members subject him to simulated waterboarding only to break down into pleas for mercy upon hearing a water bottle cap popped 95 in another episode he criticizes the today show cohost matt lauer for saying that it s unacceptable for men to cry only to sob hysterically upon learning that katie couric has left the show these status shifts occur commonly and constitute a central component of the show s comedy 22 colbert frequently uses his show as a platform for promoting his own fictional merchandise including colognes 96 science fiction novels 97 medication 98 and his own sperm 99 2009 visit to baghdad iraq edit colbert receives an army haircut from four star general ray

the first episode included an interview with coalition forces commanding general ray odierno which was interrupted by u s president barack obama obama stated that if colbert really wanted to be a soldier along with his attendance to basic combat training he needed to have his hair shaved off obama then ordered general odierno to shave that man s head 103 general odierno then began to shave colbert s head the job was finished during the commercial break by one of colbert s staff members one army major said that shaving of the hair is an amazing show of support that was very touching 104 the episode also featured a message to the troops from u s senator john mccain with a friendly reminder to always remember to clean your muskets a lesson he claimed to have learned at valley forge as a reference to old age jokes that he faced during the 2008 presidential election 104 several other prominent politicians including former presidents bill clinton george h w bush and george w bush
