'Family Ties' Mom: 'I Could Have Been a Republican…Thank Goodness I'm Just Gay'

—–

“So I had no sense of who I was. You know I was just, I was just trying to save my life on a daily basis. And so, people have said, you know, “You had to have know you were gay.” I realized I was so un-self-examined I could have been a Republican, but you know, thank goodness I’m just gay. So that’s much better, don’t you think?”

I have a standing rule about buying books written by people say moronic stuff like “I was so un-examined,” but obviously Meredith Baxter (now minus the Birney) doesn’t want half the country — Republicans — to buy her book anyway. Why else would she be out hawking a product on national television and insult half her potential audience.

So now we know she’s gay and not terribly bright and appears to have remained un-examined in the arena of showing a little class.

NewsBusters has the rest.
