Kirk Cameron on Today show - re:Todd Akin

Kirk defended Todd saying that if you don't just look at an excerpt and watch the whole video you can see the man was just defending the sanctity of life and he deserves to be forgiven.

I am still wondering if Akin used the wrong words, what exactly were the right words?

The old "you took him out of context" canard coming from someone of the party that has done nothing but take President Obama and Democrats out of context. Fuck off, you has-been loser.

True story. When most people hear the name "Kirk Cameron" they think "Growing Pains" before they think "bigot".
