1. He should bone up on his facts
DOMA was passed by a Republican Congress, not a Democratic one. That is a matter of public record. When Matthew Sheppard died, Republicans were in controll of Congress, not Democrats. When Katrina happened Republicans were in control of Congress, not Democrats. All again, matters of public record. He also is a bit hypocritical. He wants free speech for himself, accurately critiquing the current FCC, but then a few paragraphs later wants to evicerate the first amendment for people who preach hate.

He has some good points but his column is marred by horrid execution.
