You know the story. Homophobe that just happens to be a former City Councilman and radio host, goes to drag show, is seen on internal security video there, leaves and backs up his car 70 feet hitting the bouncers car, the bouncer gets the license plate number and a visual ID of the driver. Annnnnd the Harris County DA refuses to prosecute for hit and run.
Perhaps the DA should have his activity outed as well since virulent closet case homophobes seem to stick together.
Some of the charming things Michael Berry has to say about anyone that is not a straight white male:
"I don't claim to speak for crackheads and welfare queens,"
Berry, a former city councilman, is your prototype fire-breathing Obama-hating right-wing talk show host. He earned nationwide attention (and, mostly, contempt) two years ago when he said of the so-called "Ground Zero Mosque":
I'll tell you this -- if you do build a mosque, I hope somebody blows it up...I hope the mosque isn't built, and if it is, I hope it's blown up, and I mean that
