Thought this was funny:

Dear Super PAC Super Members,

Hi there. I'm Jon. It looks like I'm running this thing now. All the 
details are in the press release below. Quick question: does anybody 
know where the key to the Super PAC bathroom is?

Thanks,

Jon Stewart
President Pro Tem
Americans For A Better Tomorrow, Tomorrow

*FOR REALLY IMMEDIATE RELEASE*

Under New Management!


BASIC CABLE, USA – Americans For A Better Tomorrow, Tomorrow, an FEC 
registered Super PAC, today announced the addition of Jon Stewart to its 
executive board (along with the subtraction of Stephen Colbert).

With this change the group, which had been known colloquially as Colbert 
Super PAC, can now be referred to as The Definitely Not Coordinating 
With Stephen Colbert Super PAC. They have already begun updating all of 
their letterhead with sharpie.

"I am excited to take the reins of this completely independent 
organization, and begin to air ads in South Carolina," said New 
President and Noncommunication Director Jon Stewart. "But I want to be 
clear: Stephen and I have in no way have worked out a series of 
morse-code blinks to convey information with each other on our 
respective shows."

Colbert is currently exploring a run for President of the United States 
of South Carolina. Because of this, he cannot be associated with any 
Super PACs, although he has asked Americans For A Better Tomorrow, 
Tomorrow to forward any periodicals of an "adult nature." *

Americans A Better Tomorrow, Tomorrow is an independent, 
expenditure-only committee founded by Stephen Colbert in the wake of the 
Supreme Court's Citizens United ruling, then handed down to Jon Stewart 
like a pair of old dungarees.
