What Colbert is doing right now, isn’t just comedy, but very serious in nature if done by a real candidate, so keep that in mind. Essentially what he is doing is creating awareness to this, and has for months. This shit shouldn’t be going on.
“This is the long-form (birth certificate, left) they released today. It is actually shorter than the short-form. …We demand a foot-long form! It only costs five dollars!”

Breaking Friday News of the Day: Long story short, Jimmy Fallon promised to get Stephen Colbert to perform Rebecca Black’s “Friday” on his show this Friday if $26,000 were raised for education projects through DonorsChoose.org by then.
Much to Colbert’s chagrin, the $26,000 mark has just been crossed, meaning he will be forced to make good on Jimmy Fallon’s pledge.
Though Friday is April Fools Day, The Jimmy Fallon / Stephen Colbert Project page promises that this is no joke, so set your DVRs if this is something you’d like to see.

Stop What You’re Doing And Watch The Hell Out Of This of the Day: Footage of Stephen Colbert’s in-character testimony before the House Judiciary Committee’s immigration subcommittee (previously) on the subject of the United Farm Workers’ “Take Our Jobs” initiative, which almost didn’t happen.
[mediaite.]
Tip Of The Hat of the Day: According to a Daily Caller exclusive, Stephen Colbert will be in DC this Friday to testify — in character — at a congressional hearing of the House Judiciary Committee’s immigration subcommittee titled “Protecting America’s Harvest” on the subject of the “Take Our Jobs” initiative “which offers Americans the chance to try working in the fields if they really think good jobs are being lost to illegals.”
A House Judiciary Committee spokeswoman, confirming Colbert would testify, said the hearing matter was a “serious issue … this is not a TV stunt.”
Some Republicans have already expressed unhappiness with Colbert witnessing at the hearing, thinking it would make light of a serious issue.
Can’t wait.
