Rogue Nation – Fan Forum

“Rogue Colbert Nation started as a refuge from the official CC forum when they shut down the original Colboard.com forum. For a lot of us, RN has taken the place of the official forum now that it’s been shut down. It’s hosted on a free forum hosting site and it’s totally non-commercial. It’s a relatively small community, but we welcome newcomers who have a sense of humor.

For anyone who wants to sign up: Please use a real email account and a username that doesn’t sound like it belongs to a spambot. We have trouble with spambots getting past the captcha, so accounts are admin-activated. Use the “email admin” button to let the “staff” know you aren’t a spambot.”

Current Mission: Stephen Colbert for Car of the Year (2013)

‘Chasing Glenn Beck’ by Michael Charney.

Is Glenn Beck a liberal?

Perhaps not, but when Michael Charney decides to plant that idea out in the “Twitterverse” some interesting conversations begin. People shout at him (MORON!), block him (SCUMSUCKER!), and belittle him (WAKE UP, IDIOT!). Eventually, though, some people start to listen.

Today’s political dialogue has been stolen, hijacked from us by those with the loudest voices. Until we begin to take that conversation back for ourselves, we remain at the mercy of those with the most radical agendas, the most extreme visions, for our country. The risk is great: a country run by a vociferous minority that just happens to scream louder than the rest of us is NOT what democracy is supposed to be about.

With discussions about politics, education, national security, manifestos, the Pledge of Allegiance, the Flag Code–and the Senate Candy Desk–Charney cuts a wide swath through the issues facing our country, a country he claims has a serious case of “Electile Dysfunction.”

‘Chasing Glenn Beck’ – Theme Song

‘America According to Colbert’ | ‘Colbert’s America’ by Sophia A. McClennen

                               

“Is the comedy of Stephen Colbert simply fun or is it powerful political satire? Does it entertain viewers or does it empower them? Or does it teach us that in today’s media-saturated world those binaries make no sense? Colbert’s America claims that Colbert’s satire fosters critical thinking about social issues, encourages active citizenship, and entertains the viewer – all at the same time. The first book to cover the various themes and features of Colbert’s America offers readers insight into the powerful ways that Colbert’s comedy challenges the cult of ignorance that has threatened meaningful public debate and social dialogue since 9/11.”
