Stepping up to the plate was Stephen Colbert, who blasted Palin's hanging curveball out of the park. First, the Comedy Central host let the video do the talking, playing Limbaugh's clip (twice) and Palin's defense of it. Then, wryly following Rush's example, he dropped this gem.
Sarah Palin knows that it is OK to call someone a retard if, like Rush, you clearly don't mean it. Which is why we should all come to her defense and say, 'Sarah Palin is a f---ing retard.'Colbert played it cool, letting the audience roar for a good 20 seconds. "You see?" he finally deadpanned. "It's satire."
