So it seems like Prop 8 might really go down–at least until it reaches the Supreme Court, where Anthony Kennedy will decide for 20 million American homos what they can or cannot do.  I never really thought about it, but the courts really are a bad forum for the bad guys.  They aren’t permitted to [...]

In its entirety.  Ready?  Go!
You’re probably not gay, dude.  You’re probably a pedophile.  As in:
But then my eyes lowered and I became transfixed by the sight of the boy’s tiny pink fingers gripping his father’s huge, workman-like fist. And I almost wanted to burst into song.
(I know, sexuality is fluid, people should do what they [...]

“Green Shoots” is a phrase you hear when desperate people, sweating through their grins, try their best to talk people into spending the economy back into shape.  Since capitalism depends on boundless growth, it is in every company’s self-interest for a climate of calm to prevail, so that absolutely no one saves any of their [...]

This may be the best thing Glenn Greenwald has ever written.  He’s undoubtedly my favorite blogger.
I’ve tried to make the point before (but I twittered it) that it shouldn’t surprise anyone that Dick Cheney favors same-sex marriage or that Nancy Reagan is an outspoken advocate for stem-cell research.  You’d have to be a demon not [...]

Why can the United States, after torturing a number of people, lying about it, brushing off its significance, defending its necessity and reserving the right to do it again in the future on the president’s say-so, prosecute a foreign national for torture and crow about it?  That is absolutely and incontrovertibly an Oceania-Is-at-War-With-EastEurasia mentality.  It’s [...]
