After Oscars Slap, Liberal Stephen Colbert Says Biden Should Slap Fox News Reporter Peter Doocy
Johnny Carson, the undisputed forever king of late night comedy, once said of mixing the brand of late night comedy with politics that, “Once you start that, you start to get that self-important feeling that what you say has great import. And, you know, strangely enough, you could use that show as a forum to sway people. And I don’t think you should as an entertainer.”
Too bad “Late Show” host Stephen Colbert failed to get that memo.
Stephen Colbert made his name at the 2006 WH Correspondents Dinner mocking journalists for being too deferential to the president.
Now, 16 years and $150 million later, he demands journalists be more deferential to the President, says they should be slapped when confrontational: https://t.co/QGifl8uxmW

The Left Once Again Calls For Violence
Tuesday night, Colbert joked that, because Fox News Channel White House correspondent Peter Doocy dared to ask a question of President Joe Biden, that maybe Biden should, in true Oscars fashion, pull a Will Smith and slap Doocy.
Colbert described Doocy as a “ridiculous man asking a ridiculous question.” Doocy was asking Biden to clarify his comments made last week in Europe, when he said that if Russia were to use chemical weapons, it would “trigger a response in kind” by the U.S.
Just in case Colbert failed to get the other memo that explained that words and phrases actually have meaning, was he aware that the phrase “in kind,” according to Cambridge Dictionary, means “in the same way”?

So to break it down in a way that even Colbert can understand, Doocy was trying to clarify whether or not the U.S. would use chemical weapons against Russia.
Given Biden’s other proclamations last week, like calling for regime change in Russia, no question is too ridiculous to ask this president.
Please stop referring to this as comedy. Colbert stopped being funny a long time ago.

Liberals: ‘Trump Will Get Us Killed’
Funny thing about liberals like Colbert. When they are calling for violence, it’s all fun and games and jokes. Hold up a severed head of a sitting president, no problem. Shoot and nearly kill a sitting Congressman, we don’t talk about it and we can pretend it never happened. Slap a journalist if he dares question the Great Leader in Washington!
For the duration of Donald Trump’s presidency, liberals clutched their pearls and declared that Donald Trump, through a series of mean tweets or some other dastardly deed, was going to get them all killed.
In September of 2020, Slate magazine even went so far as to infer that, of course because of Trump, the phrase “troll the libs” was now “steadily escalating” into “kill the libs.”
Why hasn’t CBS suspended Stephen Colbert for last night calling for violence against journalist Peter Doocy of Fox News?

While Stephen Colbert continues to be the class clown who might have been funny at one time but no longer is, Peter Doocy continues to call out the Biden Administration.

While most Americans are divided on “the slap,” ironically for Stephen Colbert, Fox News’ Greg Gutfeld is number one in the late night time slot.
