Last night, Stephen Colbert agreed with Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) who said that he takes President Obama “at his word” that he’s a Christian. “Just like when Mitch McConnell says he’s not a human-turtle hybrid I take him at his word,” Colbert said. “And it’s not easy. I have a strong desire to feed this man lettuce and raw hamburger.”

Colbert added that Obama should make an effort to appear more Christian to overcome the misconceptions about his religion — possibly by wearing Christmas sweaters. Or, Colbert said, maybe he should start Tweeting from the pews at church: “OMG, totes worshiping MG.”
