The performance by Stephen Colbert trashing Donald Trump is so awful that I refuse to even post a link to the transcript.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>We can be certain that if a Fox News personality did this they would be instantly banned for life.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>But since Colbert was trashing Trump, who liberals hate, nothing will be done unless public outrage makes this impossible to ignore.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>So far, CBS has not even bothered to address the issue.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Anyone with a shred of human decency who watched this performance would have fired Stephen Colbert on the spot.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>No investigation is necessary.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>He did this on live TV and it is impossible to spin these remarks away.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

What makes this worse is the self-righteous verbal assault launched by Stephen Colbert with regard to the leaked Donald Trump video from 2005.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

http:\/\/www.cbs.com\/shows\/the-late-show-with-stephen-colbert\/news\/1005984\/stephen-colbert-releases-scorching-video-response-to-trump-s-leaked-audio<\/span><\/u><\/a>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Mr. Colbert.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>If you are looking for an arrogant, sexist, homophobe spouting hate speech, consider buying a mirror.<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>You set the standard for punishing people for irresponsible speech, how about applying that standard to yourself?<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>If you had a shred of character CBS wouldn\u2019t have to fire you, you would have already resigned and made a public and heartfelt apology.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>But there is zero chance of that because there is zero evidence that you have even the residual dreams of a conscience.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>That was proven when Colbert said he would do it all again.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Sadly he is likely to continue spewing this garbage on national TV, because liberals not only do not care, they obviously enjoy this.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>The good news is that they are losing election after election because fewer and fewer people are this na\u00efve.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>Even people who consider themselves liberal and who agree with liberal values are confronted with the reality that those people leading the liberal movement have no values at all, liberal or conservative.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
