Knowing nothing about me, you chose to call me a bigot. At one time in my life I was as angry about everything with no clear reason why just like you are. When you feel like calling people names or making false accusations, takea deep breath and count to 10.
You don't know anything about me and yet you call me a bigot. That is very unfortunate, unfortunate that you are so close minded that you would do such a thing without any evidence of what I believe or who I am. For all you know I could be gay myself, you do not know.
Calling Mr. McMullen, McMillions is very old and dry at this point in time. The man has money, whoopee. Try making your arguments based on what he has done that you feel is wrong instead of being so inflammatory. Asking his opinion on homosexuals or abortion is obviously legitimate so why destroy your points with the misguided hatred that is evident in your posting?
Life is too short to be so full of hate.
