HAHAHA! Proof that conservatives really DON'T get Stephen Colbert..

[TZ]

Ohio State University did a study on The Colbert Report and found something very interesting......

Additionally, there was no significant difference between the groups in thinking Colbert was funny, but conservatives were more likely to report that Colbert only pretends to be joking and genuinely meant what he said while liberals were more likely to report that Colbert used satire and was not serious when offering political statements.

Conservatism also significantly predicted perceptions that Colbert disliked liberalism. Finally, a post hoc analysis revealed that perceptions of Colbert's political opinions fully mediated the relationship between political ideology and individual-level opinion.

As the Political Wire put it: Many Conservatives Don't Think Colbert is Joking

2. Right-wing brains don't understand humor, period

I honestly think that there is some sort of organic process going on, like some sort of frontal lobe disorder. They have no concept of comedy. They truly are the people for whom the "laugh track" was designed, and they are lost without it.
