Wait until you actually retire, then you can say whatever you want, whenever and wherever you want.
My biggest issue is that he uses his 'celebrity' status, his public, professional Facebook page, to make these statements--and then when asked about those statements, he claims that they are a "private matter" that he doesn't care to speak about.

You can't have it both ways, Timmy. You want to use your status to get your opinion out there? You can't complain when someone wants to ask you about it.
