      He wrote columns for a far-right website, was a Reagan “fan”, wanted to ban same-sex marriage, disliked criticism of Jehovah’s Witnesses’ practices and shaved it off as “but but look at black people!”, was a conspiracy nut on Obama’s citizenship, spread “intelligent design” desinformation, supported Israel and Netanyahu the Genocider, and signed a weapon deal with Glock when school shootings happened recently. Oh and not that it matters imo, but he cheated on his wife.

      Basically, he was an asshat.

        He was a hard right evangelical, with all the hateful trimmings that come with it, and he was active with his hate.
