Conservatives: You Have Only Yourselves to Blame

Some straight people like to search for the real reason gays want to marry:

We’re just out for benefits.
We’re trying to legislate acceptance.
We want to destroy marriage entirely.

Endless theories.  They rarely wonder about other straights, though.  Young or not, fertile or not, wanting kids or not, it doesn’t matter.  A straight couple in love wants to [...]

Do I Choose My Dreams?

If being gay is a choice then why am I gay in my dreams, after I’ve fallen asleep and stopped making choices at all?

Confederate History Month

This post by Ta-Nehisi Coates is extraordinary. I could only bring myself to skim it the first time through. Yes, that is a V branded into the forehead of the man on the left.

Go to his blog and read the accompanying text. Check out the reader comments, too. I’m showing my [...]

Flaunting their Heterosexuality

A woman in the office is expecting a baby with her husband.  All the female heterosexuals are talking about it.  I don’t care how they live their lives at home, but why do they have to shove their sexual agenda down my throat?  Excuse me while I call HR.

Some H8

Yesterday I warned against accusing someone of H8 solely because they oppose same-sex marriage.

Today I am reminded that we must still call out hate when we see it. 

Bryan Fischer is at it again.  He’s already written about all the “problems” we could solve if we just threw gays in prison.  Now he’s saying that no [...]

No H8?

Someday soon I’m going to get one of those “No H8″ pictures taken (partly because, damn, the photographer makes people look good!).  But I have to admit, every time I get close, I start feeling skittish.  I know a lot of our opponents do hate us — especially their leadership.  You’d have to be a [...]

The Casual Lie

Who is Armstrong Williams?

Called “one of the most recognized conservative voices in America” by The Washington Post, Armstrong Williams is a pugnacious, provocative and principled voice for conservative and Christian values in America’s public debate.

That’s from his bio.  Which means I don’t trust him.  Actually I don’t trust anyone so eager to [...]

Training Update: Week 9

As you may know, I’m doing the AIDS/LifeCycle this summer to raise money for AIDS treatment and research. It’s a bike ride from San Francisco to L.A., 540 miles in 7 days. If you’ve appreciated this blog or any of my videos, please consider donating — even $5 is helpful. The link to my official [...]

Ad Hominem, Part 2

NewJersey.com columnist James Ahearn is upset with the “intransigence” of gays and lesbians.  Our latest crime?  Lambda Legal wants NJ Supreme Court to declare civil union are not equal to marriage. And they’re relying on a report by NJ’s Civil Union Review Commission.

James doesn’t like that report.  Too many gays were involved.

Plainly put, [...]

Ad Hominem Attacks

Matt Barber is tired of being called a bigot and a homophobe, and he’s written a column decrying the Left’s habit of ad hominem attacks.

Now, I’ve been accused of making ad hominem attacks.  Most famously, for my Republicans in Congress video, but also when I titled a post, “Mike Adams is an Idiot.” One commenter [...]
