I Have a Funny Name
And that name is "faggot."
BECK: Do you know that “The New York Times” wouldn’t even print — I mean, we can say the word. We`re having an adult conversation here. Wouldn’t even print the word “fagot.”
GLOVER: Right.
BECK: Wouldn’t print it. I find that amazing.
"They won't print 'kike', 'nigger', 'wetback', 'chink', or 'raghead', either! Oh, those wacky East Coast liberals!"
I have had enough of this. It was one thing for Ann Coulter to come on Hardball, use that term, and have Chris Matthews suck her cock still. But Glenn Beck is given a position of respect by CNN-- who are claiming that it doesn't mean anything, because it's just "an opinion show-- and he's just used the most odious slur one can use to describe a gay man.
I demand respect.
