I'm tempted not to respond, but having people say I said things that I didn't is one of my pet peeves.

And JS - please direct your comment to Tim who brought up a closeted nasty gay man. please.

Until this post I hadn't used "closeted" or "gay" in this conversation. As for Atwater, whether or not he was gay, doesn't really matter much to me, and is mostly irrelevant to his political ideas and actions.

Also I didn't bring him up either.

This post did.

As for saying he was right, I said nothing of the sort. I don't see how "nasty" or "tough" equals "right".

Of course he was right, as in factually correct, about quite a lot of things, but he was also wrong about others.

Atwater admitted his sins, Tim will not admit he did.

Atwater admitted that he had been nasty and said inappropriate things. I never said otherwise. He apologized for certain statements. I never said he didn't, or that he shouldn't have.
