Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert's dueling rallies on 10/30 are gaining as much attention as Glenn Beck's restoring honor rally. The dueling rallies are "Restoring Sanity" and "March to Keep Fear Alive" are making those who are critical of the right wingers excited to finally get to make fun of Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin.

Stephen Colbert Congress Appearance Appropriate? House Leader Says No [VIDEO]

Stephen Colbert's congress appearance on Friday to share his experiences as a migrant worker were not appropriate, according to the House Leader. Many say that the comedian was able to bring light to a very serious discussion. Given that Colbert is going to host one of the 10/30 rallies at the National Mall, it seems as if he's become more of a political icon than an entertainment personality.

Steny Hoyer said that the in-character testimony was more of an embarrassment to Colbert than it was to the House, and that his appearance "was not appropriate."

Colbert spoke sarcastically, drawing chuckles from the press and gaining Republican scorn. He was invited to the hearing by the Representative of California. Watch the video below and click here to read about the comments on CNN. Do you think, like Steny Hoyer, that Stephen Colbert's testimony wasn't appropriate?

Stephen Colbert Congress and Jon Stewert/Colbert Rallies

Stephen Colbert's congress testimony took place on Friday. In character, Stephen Colbert delivered to Congress his testimony about his one day as a migrant worker. He cracked jokes saying that soil is at ground level, and if we put a man on the moon we should figure out a way to make soil waist level.

He poked fun at the absurdity of the AgJobs bill, and how focusing on who is picking our food (American vs migrant worker) is like splitting hairs, especially when widespread immigration reform is not underway.

Still yet, although the comedian delivered what some people think is a farse and a travesty and waste of taxpayer money, others indicate that he had a powerful message.

Given that we are on the heels of the Jon Stewart/Stephen Colbert dueling rallies in Washington DC, all ears are on Colbert.

Will Stewart and Colbert use their humor and audience to send a message, or is the rally just going to be a big joke? The two are pushing for progressive causes, and so far Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin and their conservative views have been shown in a more serious light. If Americans want change, people like Stewart and Colbert can help, but they are going to have to have a mix of humor and seriousness in their message.

Stephen Colbert Congress: Comedy or Mockery? [VIDEO]

Stephen Colbert's Congress testimony continues to garner a lot of discussion among politicos. The Comedy Central host Stephen Colbert went to Congress to testify about migrant workers. He told the institution that farm work is "hard" and otherwise cracked jokes.

Now, there is a place to mock the institution, and that would be somewhere like Comedy Central. However, there's a fine line between overstepping bounds.

Boston University professor Tobe Berkovitz told the Boston Herald “That the Congress feels that having an entertainer come in as an expert witness on a serious policy issue shows just how dramatically out of touch the Congress is with any sense of propriety,”

Still yet, others point out that it was very funny. He cracked jokes, got everyone smiling and brought attention to the issues at hand. Had Stephen Colbert not gone to Congress, then there are likely lots of people who wouldn't have even known that migrant workers and the AgJobs bill was being discussed on that day. Perhaps the "sad commentary" is that Congress needs a figure like Colbert to show up in order to get America's ears perked up paying attention.

What do you think about the Stephen Colbert Congress hearing? Was it comedy or a mockery?
