While most of us were busy going on with our lives, Markos Moulitsas was trying to think of a way to use the news to smear conservatives. This is what he came up with:
Russian Official Says Apple CEO Should Be Banned From Russia After Saying He Is Gay http://t.co/pLGtSRFxqD GOPers applaud
— Markos Moulitsas (@markos) October 30, 2014
He’ll be here all week, folks. Don’t forget to tip your waitress!
Actually, GOPers doesn't give a shit. But you go on trying to be funny. https://t.co/rJT62mvHUd @markos

He's projecting again.

Exactly.
@markos Banning gays and smearing a whole party with no evidence are both reprehensible. Please make a note of it.

Yes, Markos. Please do. Jerk.
