There’s yet another reason to love Apple’s new iPhone 4S, Stephen Colbert said Wednesday: Its personal assistant, Siri, is a staunch conservative woman. She’s apparently pro-life, too.

Just ask Siri to find an abortion clinic in Manhattan, and she’s plum stumped. “Really, in New York?” Colbert said. “I think they have one at the top of the Empire State Building. The line is ridiculous. It’s a total tourist trap.”

But staying silent on abortion clinics isn’t the only way Siri is earning her conservative cred. She’s also “just as scared of illegal aliens” as Colbert is. Which makes sense, he said, because it’s only a matter of time before Siri loses her job to a Mexican “yoPhoñe.”
