A "Colbert Report" Video Tribute to U.S. Rep. Robert Wexler


It's official: U.S. Rep. Robert Wexler, D-Boca Raton, announced today that he's resigning.

We'll leave the speculating on who will replace the possibly departing congressman to our friends at the Broward Politics blog. Instead, we'll use this news as an excuse to repost Wexler's greatest hits on the "Colbert Report."

Enjoy.

First, the "Better Know A District" clip that set off a tiny bit of controversy:

About the author
The Internet: It's like your parents. It cares for you, feeds you, lets you sleep in its bed when you're awake at night... it's always there. Our solemn mission at "Thank you, Internet" is to give it a phone call once in a while, compliment it on its watercolor drawings and buy it birthday cards - metaphorically speaking, of course. Your job is to sit back and enjoy our frenzied attempts to celebrate said Internet, in all it's weirdness, utility and blatant stupidity. By the end of your visit, you too will be saying, "Thank you, Internet."

For him, it's a crossroads where college humor and the most valuable scholarly information can be found and, in some cases, even melded.
