As you can see in the video below, the popular conservative talk show host called Gaiman out on his latest book, where a young orphan escapes his family’s killer by wandering into a graveyard:
I’m not sure what’s so funny about a kid being raised in a graveyard after his parents are killed — it all reeks of the kind of satanism Tipper Gore fought Twisted Sister over back during her 1980s crusades, and we know who won that one — but I’m pretty sure Colbert will nail Gaiman to the wall this time around.

Colbert’s not a conservative; he’s parodying what a liberal thinks a conservative is. Which is why he’s not funny anymore…
