Even those assholes boycotting Starschmucks because "No Christmas" on the cups.
As I pointed out to one of them that just behind them, were about 60ish bags of coffee each with CHRISTMAS on the front. It was all in a nice display, chock full of what you're looking for.
What, was it the cockholster comment that triggered them?
Or was it his comment that Trump has more people marching against him than cancer?
Or is it the fact that Colbert realizes that Donnie and his sycophants can't take an insult and therefore he's taking advantage of this fact?

Cockholster. I like that! I'm going to use that next time I play a game with voice coms.
The joke wasn't homophobic.
Again, the problem is and always will be conservatives don't really understand things outside their own purview.

If the word "cockholster" is homophobic, then that would say a great deal about half the Marines, and every drill instructor I have ever known. Does that mean calling someone a "douchebag" is misogynistic?

Bush may have been a terrible President, but he knew how to take an insult. His routines at the Correspondents' dinners were quite good, as well.
Here is what we are talking about:

It was good till about the 10min mark, then it became obvious that Colbert was just doing this to defend CBS after Trump called them Fake News. Which, is actually pretty funny to have POTUS do that.
I just had to do something in response to this

Before the camps, I regarded the existence of nationality as something that shouldn’t be noticed - nationality did not really exist, only humanity.

The level of disrespect that has become acceptable to the left is what is the most appalling thing.
The left, which screams for tolerance, diversity, and inclusion, also believes that insulting people in the most denigrating way possible is "humor".
The left's idea of humor consists of NOTHING but insults. The more vicious the insult, the more "funny" it is. Given the fact that the left generally hates and despises President Trump it is no wonder that Colbert is receiving support in this thread.
Regardless, the real issue is that he said this on broadcast TV. Had he been on cable (like Bill Maher) I would have no problem with it. "Comedians" should be allowed great latitude in their "comedy" and the targets of that "comedy". However, broadcast TV still tries to maintain some modicum of that old fashioned word "decency" in regulating certain things via the FCC. What Colbert said, IMHO, violates those regulations.
The actual kings of late night would never have sunk to the level of Colbert. Carson, Letterman, Leno, O'Brien...class. Colbert and Noah? Completely lacking in any class whatsoever. And not a one of them (the current ones), on any channel, could ever hold a candle to Johnny Carson.
