Mumbles Menino Must've Been Taken Out of Context Too

Either that or he found it strangely uncomfortable being on the opposite side of an issue from the rightwing h8rz! at the Boston Globe.

He's apparently come to his senses. Somewhat.

Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino repeated today that he doesn’t want Chick-fil-A in Boston, but he backed away from a threat to actively block the fast-food chain from setting up shop in the city.

“I can’t do that. That would be interference to his rights to go there,” Menino said, referring to company president Dan Cathy, who drew the mayor’s wrath by going public with his views against same-sex marriage.

The mayor added: “I make mistakes all the time. That’s a Menino-ism.”

Finally, something we can both agree on. That part about him making mistakes all the time, I mean.

I wonder if this had anything to with the discovery by Michael Graham of Menino's prior support for the notorious gay-bashers at Chick-fil-A.

Oh, wait. Did I say Chick-fil-A? Sorry, I meant the Muslim Imam who wants to kill gays, not serve them a tasty chicken sandwich.

If you're a conservative who holds the same position on same-sex marriage that Barack Obama publicly held up until a couple of months ago, you're a bigot unworthy of even getting a business license. If you're a practitioner of the Religion of Peace™ who advocates putting gays to the sword, though, no problem.

Does anyone have a flowchart that explains the left's pecking order here? Or do they just make this shit up as they go?
