Stephen Colbert celebrated the Supreme Court decision mandating gay marriage in a YouTube video aimed at his natural audience: secular liberal Democrats. (Forget all that hooey about “devoutly Catholic” Colbert. You can’t be that and be a CBS star....or anywhere else in the media elite.)
"June Is a Lovely Month for a Wedding" was the video's title. “Congratulations, gays!” he declared. “You now have the right to marry in all 50 states. So if you’re a homosexual and living in North Dakota, all your problems are solved!”
Colbert offered his condolences to “My condolences to gays with commitment issues” before
mocking social conservatives. He said you can tell the dissenting justices because they’re the ones grunting like a caveman, and muttering “Gay bad!”
He quoted from the John Roberts dissent saying homosexuals should celebrate, but leave the Constitution out of it, since that had nothing to do with it. He said that meant Justice Roberts would send this card to a gay wedding: “You guys are perfect for each other, and a cancer on our democracy.”
Then he made fun of Antonin Scalia saying if he’d written the majority’s decision, “I would hide my head in a bag.” Colbert shot back “I could have sworn he was already hiding his head in a flesh-toned cinch sack. Please come on my show, sir!” Under the video on YouTube was the message "Looking forward to Justice Scalia's dissenting opinion of this video."
Colbert concluded: “The point is it’s an historic day for gay people of all stripes...Happy Pride Weekend!” Then he happily waved his little gay-pride rainbow flags.
You might consider that just another donation to the Obama legacy at the office at CBS Inc. He was always the phoniest religious conservative ever to host a TV show.
