Kirk was such an asshole, yet somehow we've gotten to the point where we aren't supposed to say that. News coverage has been inundated with whitewashed, and whitewashing, coverage. Educators aren't allowed to say that a guy who, laughed at Pelosi's husband's attack, said gays should be killed (stoned), blamed violence on immigrants, and dog-whistled non-stop, was a bad person. Fucking hell. I can't say I'm surprised, but this country is so freaking backwards right now.
