Oxycontin Pigsnout thinks Shep Smith approves of Obama's comments because his house has TEH GAY
Rush Limbaugh went after Fox News host Shepard Smith for comments he made Wednesday that seemed to endorse President Obama's support for same-sex marriage.
Following Obama's announcement on Wednesday, Smith described the president as now sitting on the "right side of the 21st century." He then asked his colleague Bret Baier if the GOP would campaign against same-sex marriage "while sitting very firmly, without much question, on the wrong side of history on it."
"Shep, where has the issue won?" Limbaugh snapped after replaying his comments. "Where has the issue been victorious, Shep, outside your house? Where has the issue won an election? What state? Tell me where it's happened."
Limbaugh then replayed Baier's response to Smith's question. Baier said that when put to a state-wide vote, same-sex marriage has failed with voters across the country. He also said that even though polling numbers demonstrate the American public's growing support for same-sex marriage, the numbers are very close.
