Suppressing one's sexual orientation for decades will do harmful things to a person's mind.
Is it odd he goes on Anderson Cooper's show to talk about those evil gays?
One not openly gay person feeling comfortable around another?
Doesn't seem all that odd.
Unless you mean "why didn't he go to FOX", which I have to assume involves Hannity's tendency to fly into a murderous rage when he smells gay on the air.
Oh man that interview. Anderson Cooper basically just browbeats that sorry motherfucker and he doesn't sound like he's doing any browbeating - he sounds like the voice of reason. Which he is, particularly by contrast with the other guy. Holy crap.
How is he NOT fired yet? The "this is as a private citizen" argument is the THINNEST of rationalizations.
Look, our Chief of Staff may spend his weekends at Klan meetings, but hey, that's his time! It's not like he wears the hood in the office!
"Mr. Shirvell's personal opinions are his and his alone and do not reflect the views of the Michigan Department of Attorney General," Cox said in the written statement provided by his office to CNN's "AC 360" Tuesday night. "But his immaturity and lack of judgment outside the office are clear."
Is a pretty goddamn clear rebuke, rhetorical question, but how is he NOT getting the hint?

"I'm a mad god. The Mad God, actually. It's a family title. Gets passed down from me to myself every few thousand years."
Some day, in the not too near future, the one gay to end it all will come. He'll be a black, Muslim, fired in with an evangelical seeker install into his pecker straight from Iran. When he hit's there will be an explosion to end them all. Super-AIDS infested semen will soak the entire state of Texas, killing them all instantly. His cheap perfume will infect the entire nation and it will explode into an orgy of sodomy, killing the birth rate and dooming us to a fate where we can no longer steal money from the young to pay for social security. And as we slowly die off, god will send a hurricane to wipe out the gulf coast, California will sink into the damn ocean, and the super volcano will erupt destroying this once proud nation in a geyser of red hot god cum.
But one man will stand strong, and say "oh Lord, I told them, but they did not listen, please take mercy on their souls Lord, for it is not their fault that I could not proclaim my message over the noise caused by the internets and Paris Hilton".
And then who will feel stupid, not him! For gays are indeed, a WMD to end all WMD's.
While Cox is publicly distancing himself, at least somewhat, I wouldn't be too surprised if he didn't really care all that much.
I'd be shocked if he did care. Cox is a total jackass. So glad Snyder won the nomination in a year when the Republicans are almost guaranteed to take the Governor's Mansion here.

What better way to hide something than put it on CNN?
I'll be here all week!
But between this and O'Keefe, CNN has gotten a bit of crazy to deal with this week.

But seriously, between this and pretty much anything Christine O'Donnell related, it really is getting kind of hard to distinguish between The Onion and reality.

He probably doesn't know Anderson is gay. Most news people don't make it public. A shame, really.
It really isn't anyone else's business. He's never denied being gay, he would prefer it if people would stay out of his personal life. In my opinion it isn't the job of news people to out public figures.

There is something just horribly wrong about that guy. Throughout the entire interview, I ended up staring with this detached horror I usually have during mildly effective horror movies.
I mean, there's just some quality so pervasive to the man overall that is just utterly Not Right that it's almost shocking he managed to land such a position of authority or influence. By now I shouldn't be shocked by anything in this new Onion-like reality.

Actually, the fact that he's a private citizen doing this on his own time is a very powerful reason not to fire him. The first amendment prohibits the government from viewpoint discrimination in hiring practices--they can't hire or fire you based on your unpopular opinions. I would actually be extremely surprised if it were legal to fire a Klansman based off his private advocacy of the KKK.
If he were to be fired for this it would have to have something to do with the stalker angle. Having a batshit crazy and hysterically anti-gay blog isn't enough on its own.

Yeah this goes beyond free speech. He's a government official stalking a private citizen because of a personal vendetta.
Well yeah, but you can almost ALWAYS find a reason to fire someone. Don't like the gay dude? Stick him on graveyard for 6 months straight and only order decaff coffee, then fire his ass for cause after he's caught falling asleep on the job. And so forth. Hell, I'd bet a quick check of his browser history on the work desktop would show that blog, and then he's history.

Same goes for that "muscular Christianity" preacher.
I realize this is the result of bias, but this seems to be the case for every one of these homophobes.

Awesome. I think "having tea with Mr. Tumnus" just became my favorite euphimism for self-denying closest cases like this guy.
I always liked saying "He smells like moth balls".
But i dont know if anyone even uses those anymore. So it may be out of date. 23 skidoo etc...

Cause you know. So many of those Nazi's just LOVED gays.
God this guy is an asshole. A real whackamajob. What a maroon.
There was a guy on the Daily Show not too long ago who claimed that the Nazis were hard on gays because they were so torn-up about their own gayness.
I think I remember this interview. It was a corrospondant piece, wasn't it? And they declared that all of Hitler's bodyguards were gay, or something?
It was a seriously weird bit.
