			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-42790" title="Picture 2" src="http://www.mediaite.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Picture-21.png" alt="Picture 2" width="440" height="300" />When <strong>Rep. </strong><strong>Joe Wilson </strong>did it, he got called a racist. When <strong>Kanye West</strong> did it, he got called an<span style="text-decoration: line-through;"> asshole</span> alcoholic.</p>
<p>Whether it was <a href="http://www.mediaite.com/online/rep-joe-wilson-newest-hero-to-some/">in front of Congress</a> or <a href="http://www.mediaite.com/online/kanye-west-cements-his-place-in-arrogant-prick-hall-of-fame/">screaming 20-something year olds at the Video Music Awards</a>, if we&#8217;ve learned anything this year&#8230;it&#8217;s that interruptions are the way to get things done.</p>
<p>Wilson&#8217;s rudeness <a href="http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/0909/Wilson_campaign_Fundraising_breaks_1_million_passes_Miller.html">helped him raise over $1 million big ones</a> for his campaign, and West&#8217;s hissy fit got him all up in the headlines once again (suspiciously enough just in time for his Fame Kills tour with <strong>Lady Gaga</strong>, which ended up getting cancelled anyways. Can you say ultimate fail Kanye?).</p>
<p>So when<strong> <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/11/03/andy-hertzbergs-marriage_n_343752.html">Andy Hertzberg</a></strong><a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/11/03/andy-hertzbergs-marriage_n_343752.html"> proposed to his partner, </a><strong><a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/11/03/andy-hertzbergs-marriage_n_343752.html">Andy Rollman</a></strong><a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/11/03/andy-hertzbergs-marriage_n_343752.html">,</a> during his testimonial at round two of the Washington D.C. Council meetings on marriage equality, perhaps he had even more of an agenda.</p>
<p>Wonder if this interruption will help propel the ruling in favor of equal marriage?</p>
