Stephen Colbert says that in reaction to Russian president Vladimir Putin's New York Times op-ed discouraging a U.S. attack on Syria, he's come around to supporting such a strike -- in a particular way.

"Just to stick it to Putin, I say we use lesbian pilots flying the Enola Gay," Colbert said on Thursday's edition of The Colbert Report.

Video of the segment is below, plus another clip from the show in which Colbert discusses marriage equality with supportive congressman Jim McDermott of Washington State.
