Save it, Hanks

The other day on twitter, I noted that I look forward the the day when a psychotherapist identifies the particular mental disorders that causes celebrities to think we give a rat's rectum about what they think.

Reminded of it today when Tom Hanks issued his non-apology apology. My favorite quote was

"I believe Proposition 8 is counter to the promise of our Constitution; it is codified discrimination. But everyone has a right to vote their conscience; nothing could be more American..."

In other words, "you've got a right to your conscience, mormons, you're just in favor of unconstitutional codified discrimination. You hateful swine."

Thanks Tom. It wasn't bad enough that you produce a television show that is built around a practice that has been condemned by the LDS church since the dawn of the 20th century. and which they would very much like to put behind them. I presume you are sufficiently arrogant and full of yourself to think that this statement brings some sort of "closure" or healing to our national psyche, but the fact of the matter is, we just don't care what you think. Go live your idle rich life, and do it away from my line of sight. Thank you sir.
