Funny yes but do we really learn much? No not really. But the guest segment from the Colbert Report was actually involved someone doing something that might be helpful.

His point about needing to educate people about what their rights are is very true. People know that they have freedom of speech and religion but far too many feel that this freedom doesn't mean that other's get to criticize their views. Not true if your views are wrong or I think they are crazy I have a right to say so, just like you do right back to me. I'm not going to reiterate his views on science he did a good enough job himself but I would like to point out Colbert's state of what the truth scientifically being what feels right is a view accepted by far to many people in the US today. This is not true, I may want to be better than the rest of the animal kingdom and not just a species of ape, but this isn't the way it works we are just a species of ape no matter how you look at it.
Who knew you could actually learn something from the Daily Show and the Colbert Report.
Also don't forget if you are going to be in the D.C. area on October 30th to attend either The Rally to Restore Sanity or The March to Keep Fear Alive, and let me know how it goes.
