During Fox News’ live coverage of Kentucky clerk Kim Davis‘ release from prison, anchor Shepard Smith suddenly spoke over the press conference to chastise Davis and those who supported her decision to refuse to issue gay marriage licenses.
“They set this up as a religious play again,” he said. “This is the same crowd that says, ‘We don’t want Sharia law, don’t let them tell us what to do, keep their religion out of our lives and out of our government.’ Well, here we go again.”
“When this started, this lawyer said he needed an accommodation for a woman who wanted one. She said she didn’t want her name on a license for gay people,” Smith said. “Now they’ve come up with one, they’ve let her out of jail… But it’s not what they want.”
“This is what they want, what you’re hearing now and this what they’re going to get: stirred up argument and a couple of days in the news cycle, and they’re going to be able to make these claims.”
Smith argued the Supreme Court had already ruled on the issue of gay marriage, and the issued was settled. “This is not unprecedented. They did it when they said black and white people couldn’t marry.”
In the end, he concluded, “Haters are going to hate. We thought what this woman wanted was an accommodation, which they’ve granted her, something that worked for everybody. But it’s not what they want.”
Watch, via Fox News:
I'd call on Faux News to fire this jackass, but I don't want to waste my breath.
“Haters are gonna hate”!
Get lost Shep.
This guy was once considered “conservative.”
Gay Sheppie strikes again!!! Inwill NEVER watch him!
I’m just waiting for the photo of “him” in makeup. I have my eye bleach at the ready.
By who?
Yeah, we all know why you’re upset, Mr. Guyliner.
He’s such a flamer.
I kept yelling at the tv for Shep to shutup so I could hear the attorney. HE WOULDN’T SHUT UP.
Shep is lying. They have NOT come up with an accommodation of her complaint. Marriage certificates in Rowan county still bear her name in two places, even absent a signature.
We cannot allow the left to lie any more.
Shep, Darling, we got out of your Bedroom in the 70’s like you asked, Now will you do as we ASK, and get the **** out of our Face and take #blackthugskilledbywhitecops with ya!
Hey Shep, just because somebody opposes gay marriage does not make them gay-haters. I oppose a mother marrying her son, that does not make me a hater of mothers or sons.
Wot a moron!
Disagreement = hate in the minds of Leftist like Comrade Smith.
It makes me wonder when did Newsweak purchase Fox?
Or maybe it was the Utne Reader...
Methinks the ‘man’ doth protest over much.
Speaking of Gaydar as an earlier thread does, I’m not surprised Shep is busy defending his perversion.
I wonder if his office has a copy of the Constitution smeared with his feces...
Shemp was so upset his mascara was dripping and smeary.
I fear that would be redundant
