Here's to you Mr. Steven Colbert

I sadly don't watch the Colbert Report on Comedy Central as often as I should or would like, but having been reintroduced the other day to his "Manifest Density" script, I found my love for his show prefectly renewed.  Thus, in the spirit of "Bud Light Presents", here is my ode to Steven Colbert and the writers of the Colbert Report:

Today, we salute you, Mr. Steven Colbert
(Mr. Colbert Report Man)

You boldly deliver messages Americans need to hear
And we readily respond to everything you say
(we call that laughter) 

You boldly stand apart from all the single digit channels who try to sell us depressing news stories. Instead, you break tradition and bring satire and irony and truth with your "daily word", like the Jesus of Comedy Central News
(it would help if we were literate) 

After all, America needs a real voice to tell us "how it is" and stand up to today's issues
(or in your case, sit)

So, crack open an ice cold budlight, Mr. Voice of the disgruntled American,
keep your suit pressed and your glasses clean because you never know which political monster you may have to take on tomorrow
(Mr. Colbert Report Man)
