Fugelsang is one of my faves, so I posted this brilliant tweet to Facebook. My number one Repug FB friend just does not get it at all. Here's what he wrote:

Friend: Haha bullshit

Me: How can it be bullshit? It was a question.

Me: That's for sure.

Friend: Yet dems can afford $10,000 to eat with Barbara Boxer and $35,000 to eat with Obama????

Me: I think you missed the point here. Bruce said he's Republican. He's transitioning to become a woman. Women make 77 cents on the dollar compared to men's wages. That's the point.

Me: Because Republicans support wage inequality. (See Lily Ledbetter, etc.)


How can this be a shock?

Wow.

He's wicked smart, a great and respectful interviewrr and treats his callers with respect. He and TV's Frank are funny as hell together.
