From the comments at Body and Soul via Sisyphus Shrugged: See, me, I’m fine with his being gay. Hell, I’m fine with him being a prostitute, if that’s what he needs to do to live. What I want to see, and what thankfully I am seeing, is all of the right-wing pundits roaring anathema on left-wing blogs because by not … Read More
Camilla Banned From White House
CAMILLA BANNED FROM WHITE HOUSE George Bush has banned Camilla Parker Bowles from the White House – because she is a divorcee.

“What the . . . (trailing off)?!?”
Plugged In is a magazine and website that reviews movies, television and music from a Christian perspective. It’s a James Dobson venture, and has been popularized recently when it reviewed the Spongebob Squarepants movie and suggested that Spongebob was gay. On a curious lark, I wondered what Plugged In thought about the movie "Kinsey". Now, I haven’t seen this movie, … Read More
Queer President for the Straight Country
Now that we know what to look for, Salon notes that clues to Lincoln’s gayness can be found in other biographies as well. Example: "He was always … writing poetry." (Lincoln, by David Herbert Donald, Page 33) "[T]hey noted … how affectionate he was to kittens and other pets." (Lincoln, Page 55) "To settle a dispute over which company should … Read More
Bush’s Daughters Are Whores
So says the stick-up-the-butt Christian group known as the Coalition for Passing Judgment on Others Traditional Values in this open letter to George Bush, which I will publish here below the fold. (The reason I refer to Jenna and NotJenna as "whores" is because according to Ezekial 23:5, Oholah was a prostitute — although this largely depends on the version … Read More
Bush Flips On Sex
Get off the subject, George. It’s a minefield. Don’t get all flippity-floppity with the election one week away!

Not That There’s Anything Right With It . . .
Regarding the recent conservative push to resurrect the same-sex marriage issue, Paul Waldman has the best tagline: I can’t say for sure, but it does seem that some Republican senators spend more time thinking about homosexuality than any gay person I know. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. I don’t know how often Republican senators think about homosexuality and … Read More
WorldNetDaily Bites Its Pillow In Abject Fear
This isn’t a slam piece against WorldNetDaily — it’s a humor piece. Here, apparently is what they are concerned about now: the "child protection gestapo" taking kids from homes and giving the children to (oh no!) same-sex couples. Mind you, the concern here isn’t that abused kids will be given to gay couples, but any child: Governments that kind-heartedly bestow … Read More

Tenuous Connection . . .
Dennis Prager at TownHall.com has an interesting perspective: America is engaged in two wars for the survival of its civilization. The war over same-sex marriage and the war against Islamic totalitarianism are actually two fronts in the same war — a war for the preservation of the unique American creation known as Judeo-Christian civilization. One enemy is religious extremism. The … Read More
Gary Bauer Prefers Unbridled (get it?) Gay Promiscuity
Gary Bauer, in explaining his opposition to gay marriages, gives this as one of the reasons why states should ban it: More importantly, however, the government has an obligation to promote public policy that is best for the general welfare and to discriminate against behaviors that adversely impact society and public health. Tobacco use is heavily regulated by the state … Read More
Thought Experiment
On a particular listserv I follow, the following wonderful questions were posed: (1) Is it fair to say that all single adults have a fundamental right to marry? (2) If so, do biologically transgendered folks (those that have mixed genders — not those that opt to surgically or hormonally change their gender) have a right to marry? (3) If so, … Read More
