Palin’s Gay Friend

Posted on September 30, 2008 by Dan (Fitness)

Palin’s Gay excuse-friendÂ confirms the McCain Palin campaign’s stacking doll status.Â McCain has a female VP so his anti-woman policies and personal history is ok.Â Palin has a Gay friend who made a “choice”, so she can get her hate on guilt free.
It isn’t surprising that the Alaska governor, who doubts evolution and global warming, [...]

Manhunt vs Abramoff: The Money McCain Keeps

Posted on August 16, 2008 by Dan (Fitness)

John McCain decided to return the $2,300 personal donation from Johnathan Crutchley, founder of gay cruising service manhunt (Pamela at Pandagon).
McCain has decided to continue working with criminal lobbyist Jack Abramoff’s co-conspirator Ralph Reed (Lindsay at Majikthise).
I’m having trouble running down a dollar amount for the latter, but I’m guessing a Reed run fundraiser will [...]

Thoughts on Family

Posted on August 3, 2008 by Dan (Fitness)

Family is a very full word.Â It carries most of our memories, aspirations, relationships and identity.Â Defining family is the closest we can come to approaching but not reaching the act of defining self.
When I think of the division between conservatism and liberalism (as strange and twisted as both definitions have become in American politics), [...]

Gays in the Military: Allowed to Die but not to Marry

Posted on July 21, 2008 by Dan (Fitness)

Its encouraging that 75% of Americans reject McCain’s dangerous stand against Homosexuals serving in the military.Â Temper that with the knowledge that the majority of Americans oppose Gay Marriage.
Allowed to die for your country, but not marry the one you love.Â A large chunk of my fellow Americans have the polar opposite of “make love [...]

Electing the Judiciary: McCain on Reproductive and Gay Rights

Posted on July 8, 2008 by Dan (Fitness)

With all the talk about Obama’s position on reproductive rights, its easy to look past McCain’s.Â That would be a lasting mistake.Â Straight from his campaign website under the heading “Overturning Roe v. Wade:
John McCain believes Roe v. Wade is a flawed decision that must be overturned, and as president he will nominate judges who [...]

CA: Liberty Counsel and Marriage for Christians Only

Posted on June 12, 2008 by Dan (Fitness)

The Liberty Counsel has issued a brave and bold call for marriage to be limited to opposite sex couples (via Pandagon):
The desperation of the wingnuts to stop the launch of legal same-sex marriage in California next week is now laughable at this point.

Today Liberty Counsel is filing a petition requesting the California Court of Appeal [...]

Natural Relations and Fear

Posted on April 11, 2008 by Dan (Fitness)

Sush has posted a really thoughtful thread on what meanings one might find behind the phrase Unnatural Relations (emphasis mine):
In that way Iâ€™ve always thought of human sexuality as transcending â€œnatural relationsâ€, because we have made sex about more than fulfilling a lust or procreating. Sex, to me, is about two people learning to be [...]
