Week 5 Post B

Dear Mr. Colbert,


Yet another couple paragraphs on what I've recently read in I Am America(and So Can You!). There isn't a lot that can be said. Yet more opinions about hot topics in society. This week: Classes and the Media. This would have to be one of the problems with your book, the fact that I can hardly come up with something new to write each week. The strong, but hilarious, opinions just continue to go on and make me, but sometimes getting me overwhelmed, even bored with your wittiness. I will continue to praise you on your constant cleverness though. The games and pictures int eh middle of sections make reading more fun and spice it up a little bit.
I am reaching the last chapters of the book, and they are getting shorter, and soon I will have finished your book and will haver to recommend it to even more people than I already have. Although, I wouldn't really recommend that one read this for school, because like me, it is fairly difficult to write about, and the fact that it might be more enjoyable if it's not being forced to be read by the school board.
To just briefly go over what I actually read...Colbert covers the topic of classes in society and the media. As usual, he is against most media sources except his own. Also, an over view of the "Class War." As in, the struggle for the lower class to become upper class and how the upper class doesn't have to do anything but "breathe air" to earn their wealth. He talks about his lower class family and how came into the upper class. It is funny, as always, but lacks topic discussion because you know that what he is saying is not his real beliefs, but just for the sake of humor.



Sincerely,

Grace
