Breitbart editor compares Stephen Colbert's conservative character to a white person donning blackface.

Courtesy of Salon:

As Thursday drew to a close, many could be forgiven for assuming that the right wing’s biggest freakouts over CBS’s hiring of Stephen Colbert had already occurred, and that essentially no one was going to be able to top Rush Limbaugh when it came to wild hyperbole on the matter. But then Breitbart editor Ben Shapiro posted a new article about Colbert at his media watchdog website Truth Revolt, and all that changed — forever.

Shapiro has long distinguished himself for writing unhinged, idiotic and hateful things. He tried to smear Chuck Hagel by saying the former senator had a relationship with a group called Friends of Hamas, for example. Such a group did not, does not and likely will not exist. He’s urged Israel to engage in ethnic cleansing. He’s argued that there’s no discrimination against LGBT people in America today. The list goes on.

Yes Colbert's dead on characterization of a dimwitted, and overly ideological conservative, who have wielded power and influence power in this country for centuries, is JUST like a white person smearing shoe polish on their face in order to mock or denigrate a consistently oppressed minority in this country.

Of course this should not be surprising to anybody who has been watching the news, as the Right Wing is downright apoplectic over learning that Colbert will replace Letterman as the late night host.

You would literally think that they had named Richard Dawkins as the new Pope for how over the top this reaction has been.

In my opinion this can only bode well for Colbert, as he has clearly angered the idiots, and that is always a good sign the more rational among us.

Speaking of morons, this Ben Shapiro guy is also a favorite of Sarah Palin.

I know, least surprising part of this post, right?
