Jon Stewart on gay rights in Kansas and Alabama: ‘There’s no place like homophobia’

Jon Stewart dove into gay rights issues in Kansas and Alabama Wednesday night, beginning with a commentary on Kansas removing protections for LGBT employees.

“There’s no place like homophobia,” Stewart cracked. He suggested that Gov. Sam Brownback (R) could use a name-redefining, a la Rick Santorum. “C’mon internet!”

He then turned to Alabama, where the state’s Chief Supreme Court Justice Ray Moore is arguing that gay marriage is a slippery slope to polygamy and incest.

“This isn’t about the unlikely possibility of some far-off future where people get married in groups,” Stewart said. “This is about real people, whose lives are being affected by this right now.”
