The Colbert Report took aim at Washington State’s Referendum 71 on last night’s episode.
Colbert used his popular “The Word” segment to decimate the opposition to LGBT partnerships. The word was “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” and looked at how the anti-LGBT forces were trying to keep the names of petition signers secret. Colbert fires away, telling them, with tongue planted firmly in cheek, that they should keep their bigotry in “the closet that the gay people have abandoned.”
Classic.
