From The Ed Show:
For months, the identity of the person who recorded Mitt Romney’s infamous 47% remarks at a $50,000-per-person fundraising dinner during the presidential campaign remained a mystery.
That was until Wednesday night during an exclusive interview with MSNBC’s Ed Schultz. Scott Prouty said he wrestled with whether or not to go public with the tape for a few weeks

Moment # 1 - Election Day 2012
No words can possibly surmise how much of a victory November 6, 2012 was for LGBTQ rights and equality. The day set forth an unprecedented wave of HOPE for the future of equal marriage and LGBTQ folks in general. Here’s just a summary of what all Americans achieved that day: 1. 3 states (Maryland, Washington, Maine) legalized same sex marriage, bringing the total to 9 states in the US 2. Minnesota repealed a ban of same sex marriage 3. Wisconsin elected the first openly gay US Senator and a gay Congressperson to the House of Representatives 4. with 332 electoral votes, President Obama, the first President to publicly endorse same-sex marriage, was re-elected 5. New Hampshire elected the first transgender lawmaker 6. California elected the first gay person of color (YAY) to enter the US House of Representatives 7. Arizona elected the first bisexual Congressperson to the House of Representatives According to the Huffington Post, marriage equality has been on the ballot 32 times and lost each one of those times. But that was before President Obama gave his resounding declaration to support gay marriage and equal rights under the law. Voters turned out in the masses and the voices of the popular vote were heard! 2012 will go down in history as the pinnacle year for LGBTQ rights. My President said it best: It doesn’t matter whether you’re black or white or Hispanic or Asian or Native American or young or old or rich or poor, able, disabled, gay or straight, you can make it here in America if you’re willing to try.

SCRIPT: Man claims Nixon is best US President ever
HE CAST HIS FIRST VOTE EVER FOR RICHARD NIXON IN 1972...
IN THIS AROUND CENTRAL ILLINOIS REPORT...JUST DAYS BEFORE THE 2012 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION...WE MEET THE DECATUR MAN WHO STILL CONSIDERS RICHARD NIXON...THE BEST STATESMAN THE UNITED STATES HAS EVER HAD.
WHEN YOU THINK OF RICHARD NIXON (NAT-good evening..)) YOU MIGHT THINK OF HIS FIRST...RATHER SWEATY DEBATE AGAINST JACK KENNEDY (I have no comment) OR HIS CHECKERS SPEECH...(nat-black and white...spotted...and our little girl... trisha..the 6 year old...named it checkers.
HOW 'BOUT VIETNAM... OR THE WATERGATE SCANDAL... (NAT-I AM NOT A CROOK) A U-S PRESIDENT...FORCED TO RESIGN IN DISGRACE...
BUT WHEN DECATUR'S OWN ROGER HUNTER THINKS OF NIXON...?
he was a good president. i think he helped the country out...
HUNTER MIGHT JUST BE THE BIGGEST RICHARD NIXON FAN YOU CAN FIND.
he believed in his country... that's the bottom line... he loved his country...
HE'S SPENT ALMOST 20 YEARS COLLECTING NIXON POLITICAL BUTTONS.
the thing is...there's not one that's the same...ok...? they might be in different sizes...
CAMPAIGN POSTERS....COMMEMORATIVE PLATES....
from the 73 illinois state fair....
SHIRTS... WITH SLOGANS LIKE HE'S TAN, RESTED AND READY...
LOTS OF BOOKS...
nixon on a pack of cigarettes... i think a football is maybe the only thing his face hasn't been on... yeah you might just be about right.
AND MORE...
the reason i liked him. he's not just a politician... he's a gentelman that believed in america.
HUNTER SAYS...HIS COLLETION STARTED WITH A GIFT...IN 1994
and a buddy of mine brought me a button... and all of a sudden. BOOM.
that one button just fired me up.
NOW HE SAYS HE HAS ABOUT 4 HUNDRED BUTTONS...6 HUNDRED ITEMS TOTAL...
and my friends think... what the heck?
BUT IT MAKES SENSE TO HUNTER...
there's just something about him losing, resigning, coming back and becoming a statesman....
AN UNDERDOG STORY...
how many guys have fallen down... got up... fallen down... got up and continued to get up?
FOR THE HISTORY BOOKS.
i mean, come on... he's the first us president to resign. think about that. i mean that's history right there.
AND EVEN IF SOME THINK HE'S A LITTLE NUTTY FOR LOVING A DISGRACED PRESIDENT MARRED BY MULTIPLE POLITICAL SCANDALS...
to tell you the truth... i don't really care what people think. it's what i feel right here.
REPORTING AROUND CENTRAL ILLINOIS... IN DECATUR.. I'M MARK RIVERA... WAND NEWS.
HUNTER SAYS WHEN IT COMES TO THE WATERGATE SCANDLE...NIXON WAS JUST COVERING UP FOR FRIENDS HE'D KNOWN FOR 40 YEARS...
HE POINTS TO OPENING UP TRADE WITH CHINA AND ENDING THE VIETNAM WAR AS HIGH POINTS IN THE NIXON ADMINISTRATION.
AND IF YOU THOUGHT HIS COLLECTION WAS BIG ALREADY...HUNGER SAYS HE JUST DOUBLED IT AFTER A BIG FIND THIS PAST WEEKEND.
