[There was a video here]
Rick Perry is taking heat following the revelation that for decades his family has visited a West Texas hunting camp named "Niggerhead." While Jon Stewart covered the controversy with a geography lesson on Monday's Daily Show, Stephen Colbert—still reeling from his defense of Perry's debate disaster last week—was decidedly more aggressive on the Report, declaring the kerfuffle "much ado about nothing" in a segment with enough racially insensitive rhetoric to fill an episode of Fox & Friends.
