Pathetic? Yes. Surprising? Absolutely not.

Just how liberal is fake conservative Stephen Colbert? Politico’s Hadas Gold reports the Democrats are raising money off his retirement from Comedy Central.
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is taking advantage of “The Colbert Report’s” final few days, with an email blast asking people to sign a ‘Thank you’ card for host Stephen Colbert.
“After nine great years, the Colbert Report is going off the air,” the email reads. “Thank you Stephen Colbert for an amazing ride!”
The link leads to a DCCC page for people to add their emails, names, and zip codes to the card. Thus far more than 20,000 people have signed the card, per DCCC’s count.
Isn’t it instructive that the nation’s newspapers are saying “Thank you for an amazing ride” exactly like the Democrat? We mentioned The New York Times. The front of USA Today’s Life section on Thursday carried the large bold headline “Stephen Colbert, you served us well.” Underneath that was a montage of photos with the headline “THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES!”
They said Colbert’s run was “marked by the marvelous (President Obama took over his show last week).” Only a Democrat would approve that concept.
