Teacher gets flak for rant dissing 'fat butt' Michelle Obama, gays

Bob Grisham says he "misspoke in a debate-type situation," so he may need better arguing skills to talk his school board out of a suspension or worse. An audio recording of the football coach telling students that homosexuals are "an abomination against God" and calling first lady Michelle Obama "fat butt" and "a fat gorilla" prompted an investigation at Lauderdale County High School in Alabama. A petition from Alabama Citizens for Equality is already urging Grisham's termination, but the coach, who also teaches psychology and driver's ed, insists that "I have no hatred toward anyone or any group. People that know my heart, they know that." [Source]
