Stephen Colbert was “more than fired up” during Wednesday night’s episode of “The Colbert Report” about President Obama’s so-called “latte salute” to a pair of Marines.
The President was mocked by conservatives earlier this week for holding a coffee cup in his hand during the salute, which many on the right said showed disrespect for the military.
“Before the ugly accusations start flying from the liberals,” Colbert said, “this has nothing to do with the fact that the coffee was black.”
He added: “I am sick and tired of the race hustlers out there playing the Starbucks gift card because Obama wasn’t even drinking coffee.”
Colbert revealed Obama was more likely drinking chai tea.
“I bet that tea had a sprig of arugula in there and was certified halal by an undocumented gay Muslim barista,” he said.

And, Obama requested Kenyan coffee. A coincidence? I think not.
He forgot to add that the barista is a cantaloupe-calved Mexican teenager with ebola who hopped the border while pregnant with a taliban anchor baby and then shot three innocent white toddlers and a kitten in southern TX with a fast and furious gun she bought with the food stamps she receives after using her Obamaphone to learn how to trick the welfare system. She also likes apples.
Notice that Steve Doocy referred to Marine One as Air Force One.
Talk about disrespecting the military.
