Say, How's that New Tone Coming?

Past performance is no guarantee of future results:

• “Alec Baldwin Campaigns For Gay Marriage.”

— Headline, Politics on the Hudson, October, 20th, 2010.

• “Baldwin Hurls Anti-Gay Slurs at Daily News Editor.”

— Headline, Big Hollywood today.

To paraphrase the late Andrew Breitbart, there’s really no excuse for Baldwin to talk to people like they’re his daughter.

Nor treat them like they’re Henry Hyde:

• “What Changes Will We Make After the Giffords Shooting?”

– Alec Baldwin, January 15th, 2011, at the Huffington Post.

• “Alec Baldwin punches Daily News photographer after obtaining marriage license in New York with fiancee Hilaria Thomas.”

— The New York Daily News, today.

Update: “I would run if I could win but too many reactionary haters in the right wing would make that impossible.”
