Hopefully your mental health teams are on the case and will detain him shortly.
edit: actually Naomi Klein is a commonwealth citizen as well. I apologise for her, too.

It pains me to say this, but it appears that Andrew Sullivan is actually from England. In light of this fact, I feel it I should, on behalf of the entire United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, apologise for this outburst:

We don't hold with collective guilt in these parts.

And was that Will Smith? If so, why does he insist on looking so goofy? (Only pimps wear hats indoors, there, Will)

it was Will.I.Am, and if you watch the whole thing he demonstrates about a thousand times more intelligence than Klein, Sullivan and Maher combined.

Civilian hat etiquette has no such general rule. You remove your hat (for example) in elevators or in private offices or homes not your own, or when directly addressing a lady.
Indoor public areas like lobbies, casino floors, gallerias and such are treated as "outdoors" and you can keep your hat on.

Military cover regulations require removing the hat indoors unless under arms.

FWIW in JEwish culture it is the reverse - a hat is put on to show respect, and removed otherwise. This is why the religious Jews wear yarmulkas/kippas - since they believe themselves to be always in the presence of God, to show respect to him.

Even when you reverse the hat wearing the thought is the same. You're showing respect or disrespect by covering or not your head. I think the Jewish, Christian and Mulsim thoughts on this are similar...it's the intention that counts...God reads the heart of man...and so you defer to the culture of the house of God that you're entering.

I do, however, hold England responsible for bringing soccer to the USA.

I'm still waiting for you to apologize for replacing Christopher Eccleston with David Tennant...
That whole show has ruined BBC drama for a generation - all we get now are reality dancing and "reimaginings" of various old bits of drama that the producers hope and pray will be as "good" (or popular) as that was.
