Stephen Colbert - © Janet Mayer / PhotorazziBen & Jerry's has named a new ice cream in honor of the comedian: "Stephen Colbert's Americone Dream." The confection is vanilla ice cream with fudge-covered waffle cone pieces and caramel. Announcing the new flavor Wednesday, Ben & Jerry's called it: "The sweet taste of liberty in your mouth."The artisan ice-cream maker is known for naming its flavors after people such as Jerry Garcia, Wavy Gravy and the band Phish, all of which Colbert sees as an overt partisan political leftie agenda."I'm not afraid to say it. Dessert has a well-known liberal agenda," Colbert said in a statement. "What I hope to do with this ice cream is bring some balance back to the freezer case."Ben & Jerry's is donating proceeds from sales of the new flavor to the Stephen Colbert Americone Dream Fund, which will distribute the money to various causes.

It sounds good but I wouldn't buy it. I hate politics, and I hate comedy centrals fake news programs even more.

I'll stick to Vermonty Python and Karma Sutra.

I can't wait to eat this stuff, Stephen Colbert in your fridge, this is my dream come true!!! And as for you '4Chan', you're obviously not a real American. Any real American would love Stephen Colbert, politics, and his ice cream. Stop spewing your obvious liberal agenda into America, it's polluting the air.
