Because his name has a silent T in it.

It's not Col-bert, it's col-bear.

It is because Colbert is a genius in all things from slightly amusing to hilarious.

he went to washington for some press thing and said how we are not plummeting but soring.

and i quote "... We might as well rearrange the chairs on the Hindenburg."

If I could remember the first part it would prolly be funnier.

Yes, it is because of his name. It's a joke to satirize the arrogance of many political pundits: "Report" has a silent T in it just like his name, because he's just that damn good, yo. That, and it's catchy.

Speaking of Colbert, does anyone know where the running gag with bears comes from?

Yeah, it's a good TV series. I have no idea where the running gag with bears comes from, though.
