        I can't get over the irony of this person saying "respect everyone's beliefs" and insulting you for sharing your own.

        Cognitive dissonance at its finest. And why is an "entertainer" on a news channel acceptable to this fine example of a human being?

        And it's obvious the writer is female and young -ish. Maybe Watters assistant.

        How dumb and crass has this country become? I'm sorry you have to deal with this. Lots of folks - esp your LGBT fans - have your back.
