I think we're better off without him. He pushes the right buttons on those in authority that need it, but he also insults Southerners for being Southerners all of the time. He did it so much I thought he was a Yankee (he's not). He was anti everything about the Confederate flag issue. He's a big supporter and friend of Bill Maher. I believe he calls himself an Independent, but his views take plenty of left turns.
Yeah, that bothered me too.
He obviously was seduced by the dark side when he appeared on creepy Bill Maher's show. Then he rips to shreds that poor old coot, Maurice Bessinger for his support of the Confederate Cause.
I believe Michael supported flying the flag at the Confederate memorial on the state house grounds. He didn't think it belonged on top of the state house dome.
