Ken Mehlman
He's creating a new marriage equality non-profit, Project Right Side. It's been a while since we've attacked him viciously. Let's all say how we really feel about this scum.
- It's typical he wants to do this now that we've proved we can win.
- Hate this motherfucker. No one should give him the time of day.
- Did he do something especially bad, or was it because in general he was a closeted gay and republican? I can't remember what he did.
- I hate him.
He provided the fuel for vicious attacks against the LGBT community during the Bush years-all for political and his own financial gain. I hope this piece of filth burns in hell.
- He mobilized the party against us.
Have a friend who has become friend with him and defends him to me, says that he's so incredibly sorry for what he did but he can't change it and we need to judge him for the fact that he's seen the light and is now fighting for equality.
I say, bullshit. He flipped sides because the tide has turned, and also because he was outed.
Ken apparently credits himself with some of the recent progress, including the passage of marriage equality in NY state.
- Wonder who he voted for in the election?
- I think you're right, R5. These ex-pols and staffers will do anything to avoid having to get a real job. If he had gone to work for some legitimate business where he had to show up every day and work hard, I might give him a chance in time. But he's still the same shitbag he ever was. Of course he's giving himself credit for the passage of this legislation. When hasn't he patted himself on the back.
Really, R6? Because it's pretty clear to me.
- Oh, no, he's gone to work. He's head of public affairs for KKR. He's a vulture.
- Ken, you douchebag, as the say nowadays:
"We got this." (without your fucking help).
Go away. You are persona non grata.
- The homeliest political presence since Marilyn Quayle.
- We got where we are in spite of him, not because of him. Rot in hell!
Karma
- I've heard that his T-cell count is getting dangerously low.
