Kris Kobach is already the darling of conservative television hosts, appearing frequently on shows like Lou Dobbs Tonight and The O'Reilly Factor. This week, though, Kobach will sit opposite a pundit revered by liberals -- comedian Stephen Colbert.
After The New York Times profiled the UMKC law professor (and Republican hopeful for Kansas Secretary of State), The Colbert Report invited Kobach to appear on the show to discuss his legal battles against illegal immigration. Kobach gladly accepted.
"I've always been a big fan of the show -- it's one of the few shows we regularly record on our DVR," he tells me in an e-mail. "And I fully expect to be made fun of. That's usually how it works. But I'm looking forward to it."
To see Kobach square off with Colbert, tune in -- or set your DVR -- to Comedy Central tonight at 10:30 p.m.

I was seriously dissapointed with the Kobach interview.These locals anti-inmigrant laws, are a patchwork of cruel, racist, inhumane regulations that go after the poorest of the poor, those that do all the dirty jobs that most americans are unwilling to perform. They have few defenders, most of them pay taxes and social security that thew will never collect, work at bargain rates and are persecuted. Those that attack or even kill them get rarely get punished as in the Shenandoah case. I truly hope that Mr. Colbert will bring somebody that will present their point view and will speak about the federal legislation needed to create the right environment. I thought Mr. Colbert would stand up to Mr. Kovach and he did not!
It's hard to take S money's comments seriously when he can't spell disgrace or immigrant.
Perhaps one of these illegal workers could get a job being S money's spell checker?
d money, its people like you who discrase this country. Hire an illegal immagrant, and pay him lower than minimum wage. This is turn kills the economy dumbass.
i dont know who you are kris kobach. you might be a nice guy but you are fucking retarted. if you really want to help our economy you should know that cheap immigrant labor is a key part in keeping costs down. and if some fuckhead out there can't beat out some mexican for a job hes clearly not qualified enough to have that job anyway. so if these loser that can't find jobs because of all the illegals out there they do not deserve to be represented so just stop trying to help them because it is clearly not working.
D money out
