I hope the anchor knows he pretty much outted himself. Jackass.

He certainly does seem invested...

Mckelway: I'm about ready to do a lot more than point my finger at you

Rogers: what would that be?

BWAH!!!!!

Ok.
You can apologize for a threat of violence without backing down on your opinion.

[prismatism]

To clarify...
That does not mean that I agree with his opinion. At all.
But what you believe and what you DID are not the same thing.

"There's a group of people in the U.S. who are really outraged at politicians, but it has nothing to do with policy issues."

Exactly.

Uh, his Barney Frank example makes no sense in relation to this.

And no, you DON'T have the right to keep your sexual life private when YOU are legislating other people's sexual lives.

Yes he's a hypocrite but one that has been castigated by citizens and the media for months. That example makes no sense in comparison to outing anti-gay politicians.
