FWIW, did anyone hear Kirsten Powers flat out call Phil Robertson a BIGOT on Chris Wallace today?
She said it and she meant it and she said it with spiteful gusto.
I didn't hear Wallace or anyone else call her out on it...
..and then, of course, Juan Williams trotted out his whiny agreement!
Charles Krauthammer piped in, but his response was so convoluted I don't know what he said.

Five years ago the Securities and Exchange Commission decided that the shareholders of American companies had no right to vote on the hiring policies of the companies. Now the commission has rightly, if belatedly, reversed course.
The original decision came after Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, a restaurant chain, decided that being homosexual was ''contrary to traditional American values'' and dismissed some gay employees. The New York City Employees Retirement System, which owned stock in Cracker Barrel, proposed a shareholder resolution to overturn that policy, but was rebuffed when the S.E.C. decided that employment policies were ''ordinary business policies'' that need not be voted on by the owners.
Shareholders and Corporate Hiring
There is a bigger story here, IMO...
To be honest I didn’t see it. I don’t watch that much TV. I have a few choice shows I like and that’s about it. I’ve heard Krauthammer talk around a lot of things though and never commit himself to anything solid that he wont contradict himself the next day LOL. When I go down to my Moms house to check on her she usually has Fox news blaring away and that’s when I hear him. LOL.
