Fun things always happen when Alec Baldwin gets on the Twitter.
You’d think that after losing his awful MSNBC show for screaming homophobic slurs at a photographer, Baldwin would think twice about his treatment of the LGBT community. But as he might say, thinkin’ twice is for queahs!
BuzzFeed reports that on Wednesday morning television actor Alec Baldwin lashed out at Garrett Jackson, a former aide to Governor Mitt Romney, with a homophobic tweet that read, “You’re on your knees in that photo. What’s up with that Garrett?”
Baldwin was obviously referring to Jackson’s Twitter profile photo where Jackson is on one knee next to Romney as they both read something. Baldwin quickly deleted the tweet.
He deleted it because there was nothing wrong with it!
Hey, if Jackson didn’t want to be insulted for his sexual orientation, he should’ve thought about that before he disagreed with Alec Baldwin. Here’s how Jackson responded:
Come on! Being a homophob has gotten you in enough trouble@ABFalecbaldwin You're on your knees in that photo. What's up with that, Garrett?

Ha! While I am down there I will pick up the pieces of your failed show @ABFalecbaldwin While you're on your knees, you can polish my Emmys.

Meanwhile, Baldwin wants to assure you that there’s nothing to see here:
One should restrict their media diet like no other. Yes to @WNYC , @LaphamsQuart , @nytimes , @democracynow , @Harpers

Add abcnewsblog to Breitbart, buzzfeed, dailymail as …challenged…

I’m not sure what that last part means, but all the outlets he mentioned have quoted his own words. And that’s not fair! He can now add me to his “challenged” list, I guess. Or not. Either way works.
Anyhow, it’s good to see that Baldwin’s hands have healed up…
