Attorney Aaron Worthing on Tuesday decided to take up Sally Kohn on her (short-lived) request for an education on the Constitution.
why did you delete your invitation to me to correct you? @sallykohn pic.twitter.com/kK2E8HtNVS

@AaronWorthing first of all, i deleted my original tweet when i realized i didn’t want to get into all this before dinner with my family.

by all means, go eat dinner, enjoy the family, and respond when you feel like it. @sallykohn

Nice thread of @AaronWorthing schooling @sallykohn on the Constitution: https://t.co/nlDvtPZy80

That thread is well worth reading in full, in particular for Worthing’s extensive, polite and patient response to Kohn’s question, but it wasn’t what she wanted to hear.
I’m done arguing. I’m horribly sad some people are so desperate to justify anti-gay discrimination, American law & values be damned.

Lawyer and Cosmopolitan senior political writer Jill Filipovic didn’t want Kohn to be horribly sad and dismissed Worthing as just a right-wing dude who “earned” his J.D. on Twitter.

After reading this morning that, for their part in the get-out-the-vote effort, the feminists at Cosmopolitan had settled on a “party bus” staffed with topless male models, it was apparent that the Cosmo staff is incapable of feeling shame or embarrassment. So we can’t imagine that Filipovic will regret that tweet in the slightest — never mind Worthing’s qualifications. Yale, University of Twitter, whatever. He’s a right-wing dude, and that’s what matters.

Well, I got my J.D. from Yale Law school, and am fully licensed, and what she said was pretty clueless @JillFilipovic @sallykohn

@JillFilipovic @sallykohn Sally got schooled, you need reading lessons

Hi @JillFilipovic : I have a JD, from Harvard Law (not "Twitter", as you sneer re others). Care to pick on ME? #snob https://t.co/epBCCx6lq6

@AJDelgado13 @JillFilipovic How do the left eat when their feet are in their mouths so often? Wonder if their shoes are gluten and vegan
