Stephen Colbert mocks Justices Roberts and Scalia

Yesterday Stephen Colbert released a video mocking US Supreme  Court Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Scalia who both dissented on the Marriage Equality ruling.  Pity he didn’t take on homophobe Justice Clarence Thomas who’s absurd dissent invoked images of slavery.

“The corollary of that principle is that human dignity cannot be taken away by the government. Slaves did not lose their dignity (any more than they lost their humanity) because the government allowed them to be enslaved. Those held in internment camps did not lose their dignity because the government confined them. And those denied governmental benefits certainly do not lose their dignity because the government denies them those benefits. The government cannot bestow dignity, and it cannot take it away.”
