Colbert at Congress

This is about Colbert at Congress. This is not about Colbert for Congress. That may happen in the future. It could! He could run for Congress. I think there would be a good chance of him winning.

Moving on.

He was testifying about immigrants who are farm workers in our country. He has done this work for a day and thus is an expert. Here's a link to watch Stephen as he testifies before a Congressional Committee. He brought all the respect and maturity you would expect from him when he talked, as a regular American, to the members of Congress, staff members, press and anyone else who was lucky enough to get in the room before it was full to capacity.

Watch and listen to Stephen Colbert in Congress.

Hurricanes

My gosh but the hurricanes seem to be piling up this summer and fall. It seems every time I turn on the news, we've gone up a letter in the alphabet. I was hearing about Hurricane Danielle and already they are talking about Karl, Igor and Julia. I think I would get kind of tired of all those hurricanes if I lived in or near a coastal region. Yes we have hail and tornadoes and blizzards here, but they don't seem to be as bad.
