So what just happened on Ratigan? He cut off Mark Williams' mike

Was on the phone. I know Williams is a teabagging wingnut, but it still must have been something egregious.

1. Basically, he spouted talking points and wouldn't answer Ratigan's questions.

2. I just posted a thread on this -- I think Ratigan kind of lost it, although it's easy
to see why. He was essentially asking if it was okay to allow racists to belong to 'your' group. Williams gave a real non-answer "we're responsible?" and Ratigan said "you're responsible to have them not be a part of your group" --

Ratigan was right, but he really didn't let the guy get more than a few words out without talking over him -- a la Tweety.
