00:00:00,300 --> 00:00:16,830
(cross-talk)

2
00:00:16,834 --> 00:00:18,104
The President:
Hey guys.

3
00:00:18,100 --> 00:00:18,970
How are you?

4
00:00:18,967 --> 00:00:19,967
Sorry we're running
a little late --

5
00:00:19,967 --> 00:00:21,167
Mr. Colbert:
Mr. President, Stephen Colbert.

6
00:00:21,166 --> 00:00:22,136
The President:
Good to see you,
Stephen, how are you?

7
00:00:22,133 --> 00:00:23,463
Nice to see you again.

8
00:00:23,467 --> 00:00:25,197
Mr. Colbert:
Thanks so much for
doing this with us.

9
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:27,800
The President:
Now, the only thing I regret is, I'm not going to get to see

10
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:28,930
you bald, man.

11
00:00:28,934 --> 00:00:30,304
(laughter)

12
00:00:30,300 --> 00:00:33,500
Mr. Colbert:
You'll see it Monday night.

13
00:00:33,500 --> 00:00:37,970
The minute you go off the air,
Odierno's gonna shear my head.

14
00:00:37,967 --> 00:00:39,797
It's the last thing in the show.

15
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:48,030
So we're gonna take it from
right before you come in.

16
00:00:48,033 --> 00:00:49,863
>> Stephen, cut your hair off.

17
00:00:49,867 --> 00:00:52,137
Mr. Colbert:
With all due respect,
sir, you're not the best

18
00:00:52,133 --> 00:00:54,163
advertisement for haircuts.

19
00:00:54,166 --> 00:00:56,936
And frankly, it's going to take
more than a four-star General to

20
00:00:56,934 --> 00:01:00,434
get me to shave my head.

21
00:01:00,433 --> 00:01:02,163
The President:
Excuse me, General?

22
00:01:06,066 --> 00:01:08,496
>> Mr. President, welcome, sir.

23
00:01:08,500 --> 00:01:09,930
The President:
Thank you, General.

24
00:01:09,934 --> 00:01:12,534
First, I want to send my
greetings to the men and women

25
00:01:12,533 --> 00:01:16,203
of our Armed Forces in Iraq and
I and all Americans thank you

26
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:17,670
for your service.

27
00:01:17,667 --> 00:01:19,937
>> (whispering)
Wow, this is amazing!

28
00:01:19,934 --> 00:01:21,364
Mr. Colbert:
You're welcome, Mr. President!

29
00:01:21,367 --> 00:01:22,997
The President:
I wasn't talking to you.

30
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,870
Now second, General, I overheard
your conversation about

31
00:01:25,867 --> 00:01:26,797
Stephen's hair --

32
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:28,470
Mr. Colbert:
Wait, you overheard?

33
00:01:28,467 --> 00:01:30,897
Are your satellites
really that good?

34
00:01:30,900 --> 00:01:33,200
The President:
No, but my ears are
really that big.

35
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,870
Now, as a man who understands
the appeal of a close crop,

36
00:01:36,867 --> 00:01:40,337
I say if Stephen Colbert
wants to play soldier,

37
00:01:40,333 --> 00:01:42,763
it's time to cut
that man's hair.

38
00:01:42,767 --> 00:01:44,367
Mr. Colbert:
Wait a second --

39
00:01:44,367 --> 00:01:47,067
>> Sir, I'd like to
request a confirmation.

40
00:01:47,066 --> 00:01:51,266
The President:
General, as Commander-in-Chief, I hereby order you to shave

41
00:01:51,266 --> 00:01:52,566
that man's head.

42
00:01:52,567 --> 00:01:53,737
>> Yes, sir.

43
00:01:53,734 --> 00:01:55,604
Mr. Colbert:
Hey!

44
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:56,800
The President:
Thank you, General.

45
00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:01,170
And once again, my thanks
to everybody there.

46
00:02:01,166 --> 00:02:02,096
Mr. Colbert:
That's it.

47
00:02:02,100 --> 00:02:02,930
The President:
All right.

48
00:02:02,934 --> 00:02:03,804
Mr. Colbert:
Thank you, sir.

49
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:04,700
(appalause)

50
00:02:04,700 --> 00:02:07,330
The President:
Thank you, thank you.

51
00:02:07,333 --> 00:02:09,333
I would like to
thank my family --

52
00:02:09,333 --> 00:02:12,103
(laughter)

53
00:02:12,100 --> 00:02:13,300
Mr. Colbert:
Look for this come Emmy time.

54
00:02:13,300 --> 00:02:14,470
(laughter)

55
00:02:14,467 --> 00:02:15,437
You're a contender
at this point.

56
00:02:15,433 --> 00:02:16,803
The President:
It's big, it's big.

57
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:34,430
