(I'm all for balance, but interviewing discredited bigots and pretending that there's any validity to their point of view is bullshit.

You're Harshin' My Buzz, Man. Medical Marijuana Dispensaries firebombed in Montana.
Crazy is the New Black. Democratic Rep. Alan Mollohan faces teaparty challenge in West Virginia primary.
Way to Cite Precedent! Newsweek thinks gays should never play straight. Ted Casablanca thinks Newsweek should cram it.
