Colbert: "Sarah Palin Is A F--king Retard" (VIDEO)

First Posted: 4/11/10 Updated: 5/25/11

Colbert Palin Retard

Using Sarah Palin's defense of Rush Limbaugh against her, last night Stephen Colbert proudly pronounced that "Sarah Palin is a f--king retard."

After mocking Palin's speech at the Tea Party Convention (taking the obligatory jabs at the notes on her hand) Colbert moved on to Palin's reaction to Rahm Emanuel's use of the word "retard." Palin not only called for his Emanuel's firing, but also defended Rush Limbaugh's use of the word, deeming it acceptable because it was satire.

After playing the clip of Limbaugh's "subtle" satire, Colbert jumped on the opportunity that his own satirical show presented. An opportunity to call Palin a "f--king retard." Colbert added that her reasoning also explained the note on her other hand: "Retard = sometimes funny."

I'm probably going to get slammed for this but you all realize that the #1 health issue created by becoming pregnant after 40 is down syndrome?

This is the most truthful comment anyone has said since Chris Matthews called Sarah Palin an "empty vessel".

Bravo!

While America wrestles with real World problems and problems within our own Country, Palin is seeking divine interventi­on.......

This guy is not only funny he is also intelligen­t.Somethin­g we cannot say about a certain lineup of the usual suspects.S­he gets a 100,000 dollars for a speaking fee? WOW! I would suggest she start taking speaking lessons right now while the fire is hot.Believ­e it or not i am not trying to be sarcastic.­If i were paying that kind of money i would expect something a little more hard to figure out when i thought about what was being said.

I had not feared,but rather pitied Sarah(as a fellow Alaskan), until I realized she actually thinks that nukeing Iran would get Obama re-elected­. If I'm wrong and most Americans think warring with Iran would be the right thing to do, then I also fear most Americans.­..........­..but right now I only fear the ignorant ones. The P-TARDS as an example.

What is Sarah Palin IQ? She needs to work on It, to improve it. So far she is a catastrofe for the country. The only thing she does everytime she open her mouth is to divide the American People. She really needs to THINK, THINK AND THINK, and undestand what she is saying before to make more mistakes..

I think Sarah Palin would make a great tea bagging partner. Of course this is just satire, so no rightards should get bent out of shape.

maybe Colbert should put his young teenage daugher in front of the camera with her low cut dress and pimp her as he did his last show......­..........­.this way he can claim how bad Palin is with her daughter..­..........­.....what jerk......­......he should get together with Mr. Clean.....­....alias Harry Reid, to all us nevada people and ask him to help him be out of touch with everyone..­..........

Thank God a few people are awake and aware. Wake up everyone!! Stewart and Cobert should be on the public airwaves so that Comcast/NB­C can't censure them. They are waking people up and making them aware of the downside of being "the R word" or a Palin. Whichever you prefer is not a good thing. GET OUT AND VOTE!! Get rid of these egotistica­l gridlocked R's. Vote independen­t! Vote for a poodle!! But get organized and vote against corporate America and the greed and lobbying that has been going on and making basic healthcare unaffordab­le and bribes legal.

If you don't understand the attraction Palin has then you are not in touch with the good people of America. She may not be qualified but neither is Obama.
02:41 PM on 02/13/2010
Oh, I understand her appeal. I just don't agree with it. After all, Hitler held a certain appeal to his countrymen during terrible economic times. Her "appeal" is to the basest of instincts. Does that mean I'm not one of the "good people" of America?
10:19 PM on 02/13/2010
wow, now that's a vote of confidence­! "she may not be qualified, but neither is my dog" so I better vote for her, cause after all, she's on the moral right side eh?

I haven't met your dog, but somehow I like it more than Palin already. Regarding the voting issue, though....­that's something we rely on as a country to determine who serves. It can be hard to accept the outcome. I had trouble with a recent winner of a few elections. But that's pretty much the only "Qualifica­tion" that counts. Of course, it doesn't mean that person has unchalleng­ed power, just that they're president. And Sarah Palin isn't.
