Megyn Kelly Freaks Out Over Obama DOMA Decision
:rofl:

Megyn was on the verge of spitting bullets as she described how this act was passed by Congress and now won't be defended. Of course she didn't really get into the details about how the Obama administration is focusing on just one section of the law - but who needs details when you have some homophobic propaganda to promote. So being the "fair & balanced" news person that she is, she interviewed the homophobic defender of traditional marriage, Maggie Gallagher.

Gallagher said that this is an "end run around our constitutional process." She added that Obama has decided that "gay is like black, that orientation is subjected to strict scrutiny" and that she couldn't remember any attorney general defining "protected classes." Kelly explained that when one is part of a "protected class, it's easier for them to sue...and the gay and lesbian lobby has pushed to make gay and lesbian people a protected class." She added that so far there has been no recognition at the federal level. Ignoring that two courts have declared DOMA unconstitutional, Gallagher said that the courts usually make these types of decisions.

4. Megyn Kelly. Saw video of her tirade tonight. I did not notice what she said.
I was engrossed trying to figure out how much peroxide per week she pours on her head.

9. Don't criticize good looking chicks
My cousin JR back in Texais says he has a likin' for Megyn and is voting conservative as long as Fox news keeps feeding him chicks like that.

8. Where the wind comes swishing down the plain
Wrong song again! Damn.

So, is Megyn worried that she'll have to gay marry some woman because of this? I mean, really, what's her beef? Would she want her best friend to marry a gay man, and watch both of them be desperately unhappy? That seems like a pretty stupid thing to be in favor of.

19. ...her beef? Insecurity, fanaticism, ignorance, fear and hatred.
she is a product of her own personal hell, and she thinks everyone else should suffer the same.

10. We have lived with 3 gay couples touching our property line
And this since 1998. So far our heterosexual marriage has not been tainted.

21. Ha!
If anything being neighbors with them has affected our relationship positively, as they have been in long-term committed relationships, which is more than I can say for some of our hetero neighbors.

13. What?! It isn't an act that her jaw drops every time she utters the name of Obama?

Did you hear what he said?!

Did you know that Obama was going to do that?!

16. And once again, the right distorts the meaning of "protected class"
The protected classes vary from state to state. In South Carolina, they are race, sex, age (if over 40), religion, color, national origin or disability. I know this because I worked for the state Human Affairs Commission for nearly three years. It is therefore erroneous to talk of people being "members of a protected class". Everybody is protected by the laws forbidding discrimination on those grounds. But the right deliberately misrepresents the law to make it sound as though only certain races, religions etc. are covered.

17. She's a joke - and ''fake'? She's fake incorporated.
As someone else mentioned, consider her hair color.

18. I continue to believe Fox News is America's worst enemy! SERIOUSLY!!!
They spew so much anti-Democratic Party venimous vitriole and have no problem lying to the American people when it suits their need.

20. She's just play-acting the news as usual.
she wouldn't want to do something that grandad would disapprove of and cut her out of the will.

Always seeking approval from her elders. Poor l'il insecure thang.
