I will appear on MSNBC's All In With Chris Hayes to discuss the 2016 GOP presidential field's sputtering reaction to Obergefell v. Hodges.

I'm probably watching a re-run of Kennedy at that hour, Matt. Anything has to be better than subjecting my eyes to Hayes' smug, owlish, lefty-goblin face.

Finally. Something about gay marriage.

Desperate for an MSNBC gig aren't you Welch? You won't have to worry about being subpoenaed. Should change your name to Wilhelm Kulz.

  Is there some reason you don't hang around LewRockwell.com?
  1. Episiarch 10 years ago
    
    Maybe they have less tolerance for passive aggressive whiny mewling cunts there.
    1. GILMORE, LVL20 Blowhard 10 years ago
      
      No, I just checked. They don't seem to have comments at all.
      1. Episiarch 10 years ago
        
        That doesn't make my speculation any less correct.
  2. Winston 10 years ago
    
    Lew Rockwell should change his name to Marcel D?at.
    1. GILMORE, LVL20 Blowhard 10 years ago
      
      I also like Mimes.

Matt?.Kennedy?.poly and consenting-adult-incest marriage and all combos of such?.bring it up and ask: If Not, Why Not?

Say it loud and say it often.

C'mon, "lgbt" crowd, tell us why not. Or are you all of a sudden Falwell/Robertson supporters? Is there a new "Rainbow Moral Majority" in town?
1. GILMORE, LVL20 Blowhard 10 years ago
  
  I encourage you to marry as many goats as you desire.
2. Tony 10 years ago
  
  First you should explain why gays should be excluded.
  
  Why should we have to accept the inherently bigoted formulation that it's straights on one side, gays, polygamists, and incesters on the other?
  1. AlgerHiss 10 years ago
    
    I've said nothing about excluding "lgbt".
    
    If we're going to have freedom, we're going to have freedom for everyone, right?
    
    Right?
    1. Trevor St McGoodbody 10 years ago
      
      Right. This isn't controversial among libertarians. If you're looking for some sort of marriage hypocrisy, talk to a Progressive.
    2. Migrant Log Chipper 10 years ago
      
      Not in Tonyworld....
  2. ant1sthenes 10 years ago
    
    Huh. I sort of imagined that when two derps with opposite signs interact, it would result in some sort of high energy explosion. Welp, there goes my unified theory work.
3. Suthenboy 10 years ago
  
  Consenting adults can associate in any way that they choose. It is called freedom. Who is choosing to fuck who is none of our goddamn business.
  
  How long do we have to listen to the butt-hurt over this? I am really sick of hearing about it.
  1. Trouser-Pod (The blowhard) 10 years ago
    
    I think it'll be as long as any group of people continue to conflate government with society.
    
    So, probably for a while, unfortunately.
Woodchipper Terminator T-1001 10 years ago

I hope Matt becomes enraged at that smug little punk and beats him so bad that Hayes begs like a wino with the shakes for mercy. now THAT would be some quality television.
1. OldMexican 10 years ago
  
  it's a good think Hayes is not a high government official, otherwise you would have to change your nick to Punk Beater Terminator T-1001
2. Suthenboy 10 years ago
  
  I think I am going to buy one of these:
  
  http://www.cafepress.com/+wood-chipper+t-shirts
  
  Center-Second row is a good one. Of course I couldn't keep that one for myself, I would have to send it as a gift.
  1. GILMORE, LVL20 Blowhard 10 years ago
    
    Center? there's 4 in a row man!!
    
    I like the first one
    1. Suthenboy 10 years ago
      
      Three on my screen.
      
      Number 5 then counting left to right.
    2. Suthenboy 10 years ago
      
      And yes, the first one is perfect.
  2. AlmightyJB 10 years ago
    
    I love that it's a kids shirt. That's fucking awesome.
  3. AlmightyJB 10 years ago
    
    I love that it's a kids shirt. That's fucking awesome.
GILMORE, LVL20 Blowhard 10 years ago

Prediction = Pink Shirt

i believe the reasons should be obvious
1. Fist of Etiquette 10 years ago
  
  Dark suit, white striped shirt, light blue tie.
  1. GILMORE, LVL20 Blowhard 10 years ago
    
    I refused to accept this and so i twisted the tint knob on my TV until it was pink.
    
    Ok, I confess, i don't have a tint knob. and i didn't watch it.
Wizard with a Woodchipper 10 years ago

low hanging fruit, Matt, low hanging fruit.
1. SusanM 10 years ago
  
  That's why you should never wear boxers...
  1. Wizard with a Woodchipper 10 years ago
    
    +1 comfyballs
    1. SusanM 10 years ago
      
      Shouldn't that be +2?
      1. Wizard with a Woodchipper 10 years ago
        
        +1 PAIR of comfyballs.
  2. Migrant Log Chipper 10 years ago
    
    Waddya mean, Susan, boxers keep those spermy things cool and more potent. That's good, amirite?
Fist of Etiquette 10 years ago

Prediction: Violet shirt

Black men can be gay, too?
1. AlmightyJB 10 years ago
  
  pfft
2. Woodchipper Terminator T-1001 10 years ago
  
  Black men can wear color combinations that would brand a white man gay forever, without the slightest concern for being viewed as gay.
Fist of Etiquette 10 years ago

The sound is down but it seems like quite a discussion they're having.
Fist of Etiquette 10 years ago

And Welch is ushered in on the coattails of the Donald's pontifications.
Fist of Etiquette 10 years ago

You're wrong. Obamacare will never be popular. Expensive bureaucracy is never popular.
1. AlmightyJB 10 years ago
  
  I will be popular among the future generations that never experienced good healthcare because they're not going to know any better and they are going to be contently brainwashed about how bad it was before Obamacare. Women and orphans dying in the streets and whatnot.
2. GILMORE, LVL20 Blowhard 10 years ago
  
  "'Expensive bureaucracy is never popular.""
  
  HANDS OFF MY MEDICARE
  1. Fist of Etiquette 10 years ago
    
    Old people don't count.
Fist of Etiquette 10 years ago

I guess Welch got the "if they're going to be in this business" statement in there.
Fist of Etiquette 10 years ago

Yeah, Matt Welch knows a ton of heartland social conservatives.
Fist of Etiquette 10 years ago

Oh, thank God. I don't have to watch any more.
Fist of Etiquette 10 years ago

DON'T LET THE DOOR KNOB HIT YOU ON THE ASS, MATT WELCH.
Wizard with a Woodchipper 10 years ago

Wow, Wtf! What a truly over the top ad for Rand Paul.

Let me guess...Welch said that if the government is going to be "in the marriage business," it may as well give the Good Houskeeping Seal of Approval to Patty and Marcie's houseeeping arrangements, and the Republicans should tell the SoCons to pound sand. But he'll drop in a to-be-sure about freedom of association/religious freedom.
1. The Hyperbole 10 years ago
  
  sounds about right. What's the problem?
2. GILMORE, LVL20 Blowhard 10 years ago
  
  You missed it. He didn't say a word, and just hit Chris Hayes in the face with his chair.
  1. GILMORE, LVL20 Blowhard 10 years ago
    
    Oh, sorry, I was dreaming again.
  2. Woodchipper Terminator T-1001 10 years ago
    
    I would pay to see that actually happen. Especially if there was an extended clue up of that little weasel sobbing on the floor afterward.
