Colbert and O'Reilly

Genius. This was like Christmas morning.

FYI...
To really appreciate the humour, you need to know who they both are and what the political climate in the States really is.

The political climate is currently very heated in a left vs. right fashion. Left being the liberal Democrats and right being the conservative Republicans. There is almost a media war that goes on constantly with bloggers from both sides attacking each other, pundits criticizing each other, and almost everybody seems to be on one side of the fence or the other.

Bill O'Reilly is basically the face of Republican media. He has a show on the Fox News Channel. The running joke about Fox News is that is totally conservative, though its slogan is "fair and balanced." The media that runs with a liberal slant, such as The Daily Show or David Letterman or Keith Olbermann (another pundit seen in the videos) constantly bashes and is at odds with O'Reilly.

The Colbert Report is a spin off of O'Reilly's "No Spin Zone" TV show on Fox. Colbert basically imitates O'Reilly, exaggerating everything he and Republicans are about to the point that they look stupid and ridiculous. That is why you see Colbert treating the man like a God.
