During the Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner Stephen Colbert took aim at John Kerry’s failed 2004 presidential campaign.
"Since [Al Smith] first shattered the stained glass ceiling, America has seen a flood of Catholic presidents, from John F. Kennedy, to JFK, to good old Jack Kennedy. We got close-ish in 2004 with John Kerry, who was a deeply Catholic candidate, in that listening to him talk was like attending a Latin mass."
