Stephen Colbert explains Twitter #cancelcolbert

“The Ching-Ghong Ding-Dong Foundation for Sensitivity to Orientals or Whatever.”  A Modest Proposal where the twit hit the fan

#cancelcolbertWith Fox News Michelle Malkin on board, the #cancelcolbert campaign worked! But, just like Jesus Christ, Stephen Colbert was canceled for only 3 days and came back.

The now infamous quote above was of course a satirical response to REDSKINS owner Dan Snyder who is creating all sorts of reasons to not change the name of the Washington Redskins – which American Indians not booked on Fox News find offensive.

And you know, looking a little deeper into that issue, it is not even about money. Re-Branding would make more money in marketing, in products, trending and newsworthyness. Redskins owner Dan Synder is fighting on the principle of the thing. It is HIS RIGHT to call any minority whatever he wishes to call them. It is what it means to be a Republican. Much like the success of talk radio is based upon only one factor, making a wholes feel good about themselves.

So all in all what’s new? How can we expect Republicans to understand satire when they are unable to even grasp climate change, evolution or being nice.
