When I saw this headline on Right Wing Watch I burst out laughing. I've had the pleasure of meeting and speaking to Sally Kohn in person, and she is not this:

Shortly after declaring on his radio show yesterday that seeing same-sex couples get married during the Grammy Awards on Sunday is the sort of that "makes you want to vomit," Erik Rush turned his attention to a tweet sent out by Sally Kohn a few days ago saying that she wants to see a Disney movie in which a princess marries another princess. Rush warned that this sort of deviance is pushing society into civil unrest that will result in people going "homo-hunting" and violently attacking their gay neighbors.

Calling Kohn an "obnoxious, maladjusted lesbian," Rush said that she was exactly the sort of person who is pushing society toward a violent breakdown when lunatics and "people who have just been pushed to the limit" finally snap and start attacking people like Sally Kohn ... which won't really bother Rush "because she sort of served to bring it about."

So what exactly is it about Sally Kohn that threatens this guy so much? That she's not rushing to throw herself at his feet in awe of his towering manhood? Or is he just the self-hating type who can't quite admit the feelings he has?

Can you help us out?
