Freep - Michigan Assistant Attorney General Andrew Shirvell appeared in a segment on Monday night's "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart," bringing more national attention to a story about cyber-bullying at the University of Michigan. Shirvell starts the segment by bemoaning attacks that he himself has faced after maintaining an antigay blog that attacks University of Michigan student leader Chris Armstrong for being gay. "We have no decency in this country," Shirvell says. Shirvell's blog — Chris Armstrong Watch — included accusations of out-of-control parties and featured a picture of Armstrong with a rainbow flag and swastika. "He's a radical homosexual activist," Shirvell told Jason Jones. "He's promoting an agenda that is diametrically opposed to the natural order of things." And what does Shirvell have to say about the critics who call him a bully? "I think they're focusing on me because, hey, I'm a right-wing guy, and, oh, he's pro-life, oh, he holds up pictures of aborted babies," Shirvell says.
Usually the people who hate on gays the most are closeted gays themselves, just look at the Republican party. The only gay joke we ever make around here is the Seinfeld classic "not that there is anything wrong with that" which is usually followed by an "anygay", but in all seriousness how can someone living in today's world be this hypocritical in their actions? You're the assistant attorney general of Michigan and you're tattling on someone else for bullying when you're actually the one who has been doing the bullying. He's like one of my 1'st graders. Glad the Daily Show stepped up and called him out for the bigot that he is.
