How Stupid Can Democrats Get? (That’s a Question, Not a Challenge)
Derek Hunter
Any discussion of Stephen Colbert destroying the “Late Night” institution that David Letterman started decades ago can’t happen without acknowledging a few facts. First, Colbert is not funny. Second, CBS kept the show on life support for longer than it would have any other show. Third, the leftist media knows these things. And finally, it couldn’t happen to a more deserving guy (unless it happens to Jimmy Kimmel).
It was a great week to be a conservative, with the funding of National Public Radio and the Public Broadcasting Service being zeroed out after having been promised that very thing by various Republicans for my entire life.
The same day the Senate passed the rescission package killing a liberal sacred cow (it’s not actually dead, they can operate quite nicely on the money they get from donors, corporations and rich liberals, and they can always sell more tote bags or learn to code to make up the difference), news came down that CBS was canceling "Late Night with Stephen Colbert." While most people didn’t know it was still on – it had lost a third of its viewers in the last couple of years and was already a ratings shell compared to Carson, Letterman, and Leno – when they heard about the cancellation, they…didn’t care.
But liberals did. The leftist progressive group-thinkers who demand absolute conformity of thought and obedience to the Democrat Party reacted like they’d lost a parent. Hell, they probably had a falling out with their parents long ago, likely after referring to them as their “birthing people” and mom and dad getting sick of it, that they were more upset over losing Colbert. You don’t see “think” pieces in major publications wondering, “Is it time to stop snubbing your right-wing comedians?” the way they wondered about “right-wing family.”
