@exjon Who: @StephenAtHome or @BarackObama?

Speaking of “truthiness,” Barack Obama has been president for six years and some people still don’t understand that @BarackObama isn’t Barack Obama. Unless a tweet ends with the initials ‑bo, that is; then it is Barack Obama. Otherwise, it’s some random clown from Organizing for Action operating under Barack Obama’s name and a blue “verified” checkmark. Truthy enough for you?
In any case, the final episode of “The Colbert Report” on Comedy Central earned a coveted tweet from @barackobama. After all, as Nancy Pelosi tweeted earlier, “The Nation mourns.”
After nine years, the best source of "truthiness" is coming to an end. Congratulations @StephenAtHome. pic.twitter.com/JXAj5ATaxz

@BarackObama @StephenAtHome Truthiness certainly isn't one of your traits…

@Cameron_Gray @BarackObama @StephenAtHome and there you have the summation of the gov't-media-entertainment complex circle jerk.

The only people I know who've noticed The Colbert Report is ending work in media or government. Real people don't give a damn. #Caring

True story: I wouldn't have known if I hadn't just read your tweet. Never watched it. Like his pistachio ads though. @derekahunter

Speaking of politicians and kneepads, look who else showed up to send off Colbert on his brave, unprecedented journey from one network to another.
#Farewell @StephenAtHome…But I know we'll meet again some sunny day. Your friend, PrezBillyJeff
