Donohue falls for Colbert satire!

| »

This is almost too sweet to be true. This proves one of two things (whilst we all know both are inherently true): that either Bill Donohue is one heck of an imbecile, or that Stephen Colbert truly is the King of Satire.

The Catholic League website is now promoting Donohue's new book, some garbage called Secular Sabotage: How Liberals Are Destroying Religion and Culture in America (note that he forgot to add politics as well), and the page holds a bunch of endorsements – including one from ... Well, check it out for yourself. See if you can find it.

· “Wake up, America! The secular minority has cut the brake cables on America’s In-God-We-Trust-Mobile™! Not even all 43 of our Christian presidents can save us now.” – Stephen Colbert, host of “The Colbert Report”

Takes an idiot like Donohue to fall for such obvious satire. (But then, I've seen far smarter people fall for far less obvious satires before, so I suppose it's a moot point.)
