Colbert Mocks “Forehead Magnate” Kim Davis [VIDEO]

The Slate recaps last night’s show:

“I think everyone should love whoever they want,” Colbert said. “So, I was miffed when Kentucky County Clerk and forehead magnate Kim Davis refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples. But I also felt bad for her when that judge sent her to jail and even worse when she was sentenced to send an afternoon with Mike Huckabee. It’s cruel and unusual,” he joked. Colbert said that Davis isn’t alone and brought up Iowa Congressman and cantaloupe calves fan Steve King who recently compared same-sex marriage to marrying a lawn mower. “While introducing Mike Huckabee at a campaign event just this summer, King criticized the Supreme Court’s ruling that legalized gay marriage by claiming it means ‘You can marry my lawnmower.’ It makes sense, I mean, who hasn’t looked at a manifold on a two stroke Toro and thought ‘damn, I wouldn’t mind yankin’ that cord!’”
