With all of the talk about the bad things you can find on www.youtube.com, I thought I would find something funny and entertaining that would show you how this technology can be used to entertain as well.
The Colbert report is a news-like show on Comedy Central that takes the news of the day and addresses complex issues tongue-in-cheek.
In this episode, Colbert hosts Nebraska District 2 Congressional Representative, Lee Terry. This one is pretty funny, so take a few minutes to have a look!

People pick political candidates for odd reasons sometimes. In this election, Nebraska politics is really interesting because you have a ton of qualified candidates all from the same party who are vying for the same jobs. In the case of the Nebraska US Senate Race, voters will have an opportunity to select the Republican who will face off against Ben Nelson (D. Neb) in the general election.
I must admit that I had a tough time choosing between Don Stenberg, Pete Rickets, and Dave Kramer. All three have very attractive qualities – Don is an experienced hand at politics and could use that experience for his constituents; Pete is an outsider who has the brains and the connections to get things done without the usual political strings that get attached to a candidate who has to beg for money to run; and Dave has helped countless other candidates get elected over the years and a LOT of people owe him a LOT of favors, which could be called in in the interests of the people.
