Katrina vanden Heuvel bid farewell to The Colbert Report along with an eclectic chorus of some of Stephen’s favorite guests: Jon Stewart, Randy Newman, Willie Nelson, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Jeff Daniels, Keith Olbermann, Samantha Power, Katie Couric, Matt Taibbi, Charlie Rose, Big Bird… We wish him all the best!

We’ll meet again, Don’t know where, don’t know when, But I know we’ll meet again, some sunny day. Keep smiling through, Just like you always do, Till the blue skies drive the dark clouds, far away. So will you please say hello, To the folks that I know, Tell them I won’t be long, (i wont be long) They’ll be happy to know that as you saw me go I was singing this song.
