The 2007 Easter Under Attack season is well under way on the Colbert Report. The first installment goes out to Walnut Creek California where the nation has just learned something utterly shocking. The city has changed the name Easter Bunny to Spring Bunny and Easter Egg Hunt to Spring Egg Hunt. Hilarity ensues!

Stephen Colbert is so hilarious. The fact he can hold a straight face while playing his satire to the hilt makes me consistently have to remind myself not to drink anything I don’t mind spraying my monitor with while watching his clips. Thanks for the brightening of my morning gasmonso.
Don’t bother trying to go shopping Easter Sunday in Virginia.
NOOO, don’t go and attack ANY hollidays, who in his right mind wants to work more
he’s right, what do Christian Easter and bunnies and eggs have to do with each other anyway?
and YEAH, where does that toothfairy get her cash anyway?
but wait… aren’t we still left with a pagan fertility celebration? seems like good ol’ walnut creek (for the record, i live in a neighboring town) is just trading town-sponsorship of one religion for town-sponsorship of another. nothing like a holy-day to get everyone’s panties in a twist…
I take offense to that, I’m great at shooting a blaster rifle.
Are there ANY Christian holidays that don’t bootstrap themselves off of existing celebrations?
@Tommy “Are there ANY Christian holidays that don’t bootstrap themselves off of existing celebrations?”
Probably not, I remember when I lived in Valencia for a while and there they had a thingy were you’d go down to the beach on 22 June and light fires. Obviously a pagan summer solstice festival but conveniently rebranded “el dia de San Juan”. A quick veneer of respectability in the form of St. John and you’ve god a christian festival!!!
Got to credit the christians for that, subverting existing religious pap so that people could still have their festivals, just in the name of another imaginary god.
“”A quick veneer of respectability in the form of St. John and you’ve god a christian festival!!!”"
Typo of the month
Thank you!!! Thank you!! and if you only knew my surname the irony might seem greater!
Not to be picky, but the report said that a “Jewish resident” complained, not an atheist.
This is dumb as hell.. is he supposed to be funny?.. who has the time to make an ignorant video clip?..
Ah, the subtle art of satire is just lost on some people.
Thats how we roll in the Dub C. UHHHHH SON!
“Ah, the subtle art of satire is just lost on some people.”
I think that’s why Colbert and Stewart are unpopular with young people and evangelicals. But to be fair, John is a racist asshole… but I doubt many people are aware of that fact, so I guess it doesn’t really effect the tally.
I think they’re hilarious, though IMHO Steven was better on the Daily Show.
By the way, I wouldn’t call what Colbert and Stewart so “subtle” by ant stretch of the word. ;) Some people are just ill-equipped to deal with anything that doesn’t fit with their poor excuse for a world view.
Wait…
the subtle art of sarcasm was just lost on me… :D
As to quote Derrick, “This is dumb as hell.. is he supposed to be funny?.. who has the time to make an ignorant video clip?..” youre stupid. he has a gigantic and very popular 30 minute long show on comedy central. Right after the daily show with jon stewart.
