This is another edition of What Digby Said:
Oh dear. It appears that Stephen Colbert offended the delicate sensibilities of the Beltway Quilting Bee and Ladies Pearl Clutching Society:
...
Update:
Via Res Ipsa, more 'Contempt of Colbert':
...
But Steve King, who, as we mentioned earlier, had never heard of Colbert until a couple of days ago and has been studying his old tapes ever since to develop an attack strategy, goes even further, calling Colbert a liar who "staged" his 10-hour workday with migrant laborers, which he can prove based on the way a corn truck was driving.
...
King actually broached this subject of deception while questioning Colbert, who responded, beautifully, "I was packing corn. I was a corn packer and I know that term is offensive to some people, for corn packing is a derogatory term for a Gay Iowan."
...
"Corn packer", heh ... Gotta try that one out on my niece, who's doing her Masters program at the University of Iowa.
