Last Thoughts on the Election...

On November 7th, a day after the election, Stephen Colbert made quite a statement on his show "The Colbert Report". The political/comedy/news show started with Colbert looking beaten, wearing a robe and eating a bag of white cheddar popcorn. "What are you people doing here?" he questions, "shouldn't you be out celebrating!?!" Exasperated, Colbert goes on to yell about how none of his viewers listen. "I been bringing you the truth, hot and hard now for seven years, and how do you repay me? Four more years of hope and change!" Celebration is far from his act, but Colbert brings the angry up a notch to make it more dramatic. Flailing his arms around and throwing popcorn everywhere he finally remarks to the audience and viewers, "do you think I do this for you're amusement? I do this for America" he barks.

Clearly. And Americans enjoy the political news the a comedian flair. Honestly, anyone who has a hint of right wing in their political affliation, and maybe some left-winged themselves will find Colbert's report on politics. But in this episode, Colbert lets it be known what he thinks about the results of this year's election, and ends up giving in to the liberal side, and starts drinking a beer and watching TV to drown his sorrows. Unlucky for him, he has a contract obligations which legally binds him into making a show, and therefore he is back to The Colbert Report once more. Throughout all of this the audience is laughing, and incredibly enthralled at the dramatic and comical way Colbert makes his last political statement for 2012's election.
