You've Got To See This To Believe It.

Somebody needs his luggage lifted.

Check out the blog. It seems is literally deranged.

UPDATE:  Holy crap.  I looked more at the blog.  In this entry, Shirvell claims to have proof from Facebook that Armstrong hosted gay orgies in his dorm room.  Here’s Shervill’s analysis:

But it was the FB wall post by ‘gay’ student activist Tommy Habratowski [...]

Whew.

You know how you can be sure you’re happy with your man, your dog, and your home? When you’re relieved your boss doesn’t need you to fly to Cambridge for 10 days (with a weekend in London).

Of course, that’s just a sinful homosexual emotion.

Free Speech for All, NOM, Or Just for You?

[Oops, oops, oops. Update and correction below]

The National Organization for Marriage recently spread a warning that gays want to “discourage or criminalize the expression of certain Catholic beliefs as ‘hate speech.’”

It’s a favorite tactic of the far right in their war against hate crime laws and marriage equality — this fear that it could [...]

Whoo Boy

Sorry for the relative silence. Work is crazy with three projects coming to a head at the same time. I’m working on a few posts now and should be back in the next day or so.

In the meantime, here’s a picture of a puppy and a duck.

Book Club: Ch. 1 -- Neural Networks

If you’re new to the blog, the first Book Club installment is here.  I’m not going to a book report for each chapter of The Political Brain.  These entries simply focus on what I found most thought-provoking.  Still, I heartily invite others to bring up other sections of each chapter. 

Chapter 1 of [...]

Traditional Marriage: Fun Fact!

According to the Expatriation Act of 1907, if an American woman married a foreign national, she lost her American citizenship.

The same was not true of American men.

Whoo hoo!  Go Tradition!

Burn a Koran for 9/11

Pastor Terry Jones of the Dove World Outreach Center is burning Korans to commemorate 9/11.

This response is priceless and just, well, friggin’ awesome.

H/T (once again) to Joe.My.God.

NOM's Strategy of Hypocrisy

The National Organization for Marriage has a long history of not saying what they mean. For instance, on their website they advise their followers:

Language to avoid at all costs: “Ban same-sex marriage.” Our base loves this wording. So do supporters of SSM. They know it causes us to lose about ten percentage [...]

I'm Backin' Up, Backin' Up, Backin' Up, Backin' Up

When I saw this clip, I thought this woman really had a way with story-telling:

But the auto-tuned version is freakin’ amazing! (You definitely should watch the original above first, though):

Ignorance is the Oldest Profession

Here’s a wry chuckle for the weekend.

Ex-gay therapists obviously have a deep interest in what makes people gay (and it has to be something they can charge for).  One popular myth fiction completely unsupported crock of bull theory is that gay men just didn’t get enough man-on-man bonding time growing up.  Richard Cohen, for example, [...]
