I don't know. I really don't. But this shit made my day. I know being gay is still not easy, but there's no excuse for this kind of shit today.

"I will essentially be the mouthpiece and effective leader for the tens of thousands of Young Republicans, 18 to 40, across the country," said Murphy, who took a vacation following the organization’s convention and returned to Clark County last weekend.

Fuckity Fuck Fuck!!!
Look what Fucking Dan Fucking Savaage Fucking wrote in Fucking October Fucking 2002

Excerpt from \"Say Yes To War\" by Dan Savage October 2002

\"War may be bad for children and other living things, but there are times when peace is worse for children and other living things, and this is one of those times. Saying no to war in Iraq means saying yes to the continued oppression of the Iraqi people.\"

This is getting nuts. It seems like all 'family-values' Repukes are actually desperate closet cases. I wonder if Cpl Matt Sanchez will come to this guy's defense?

So the poor guy has to quit? His job? Since when isn't hypocrisy a Republican value? God-Damn liberal media!
And so what if Big Dan made a mistake re Iraq II? He's apologized, and we've all moved on. Right?

Wait a sec! What's this about "our sympathies are with the victim, of course"? Dan, have you never had a good blowjob? Couldn't you have meant "our empathys are with the victim"? What a lovely way to be awakened. Unless you happened to be straight. Did you say the victim was a Republican?

Closeted gay Republicans to American voters: "SAVE US FROM OURSELVES!"

Okay, here's the real question: Why does this police report look like it was written on '62 Selectric? Don't they have computers in Indiana?

@9 Dan apologized for his role in helping Bush start the Iraq war? I missed that apology. Please post the link. Note here, in Dan\'s enthusiastic call for war, how ready to sacrifice children in this war Dan was:

\"War may be bad for children and other living things, but there are times when peace is worse for children and other living things, and this is one of those times. Saying no to war in Iraq means saying yes to the continued oppression of the Iraqi people.\"


So instead of just moving on why don\'t we apportion Dan Savage his fair share of the carnage. Let\'s arbitrarily assign him responsibility for the death of, say, an eight year old Iraqi girl. That sounds about right doesn\'t it? That still leaves 649,999 dead Iraqis to be apportioned out to Bush and the neo-cons and other war supporters.

#14 I don't get it. What point are you trying to make by posting this link?

BAGHDAD -- Four more U.S. troops and a British soldier have died in attacks, military officials said Tuesday, in a possible sign that extremists are regrouping after a drop in American deaths last month.

The spate of recent U.S. deaths -- 19 so far in August -- seems certain to intensify the debate over U.S. progress to calm Iraq and gain ground against militants before a key September report to Congress.

U.S. deaths dropped slightly in July to 79 -- the lowest monthly tally since 70 were killed in November. Before July, more than 100 American forces died each month in the April-to-June period as the U.S. military struck out at insurgents on dangerous streets and in dangerous cities across Iraq.

Just speaking as a college student here--Shouldn't the leader of the Young Republicans be, like, young?

Also, I sure hope it was consensual, as Murphy claims, and not sexual assault, for the 22 year-old's sake. My sympathies go out to him.

Also, ahahahahahahahah.

Oh, speaking of Bob Allen, have you all seen his cover story for why he would be paying a cop for a pull on his pole?

http://reason.com/blog/show/121791.html

"'This was a pretty stocky black guy, and there was nothing but other black guys around in the park,' Allen, who is white, told police in a taped statement after his arrest. Allen said he feared he 'was about to be a statistic' and would have said anything just to get away."

Despicable, that he thinks his constituents are dumb and racist enough to buy this. But also genuinely hilarious.

The victim has my sympathies, too. Republicans give terrible blowjobs.

"law-breaking oral bottoms."

In John Waters' film "A Dirty Shame," Tracey Ullman's character wakes from a concussion to find that she can think of little else than getting her box eaten out. All day long. When she describes her sex addiction, she puts it this way:

"Oh, Ursula, ever since my concussion, I've learned so much about eros. I'm a sex addict, too. I'm a cunnilingus bottom, and I'm your mother."

I found this utterly baffling. A cunnilingus bottom should be the person PERFORMING the cunnilingus, not the person RECEIVING it. Of course, maybe it's different with cunnilingus, as opposed to fellatio, but I just don't think so.

Still, I was willing to defer to John Waters, one of the truly great pervs of our era, on the matter.

Thanks, Dan, for clearing this controversy up in my favor. Tracey Ullman is definitely a top.

The sad thing is that Repubs are sooooo delusional that they they will see this as
a "bad apple" in their midst. I'm betting that they can't make the connection between this behavior and their reactionary mind-set and politics.

Dan, for sure - apologies and sympathies all around. A big hand people.
Now come on, what do you have in store for Oct 31st? Here's what my beau is planning http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYjzfXOqo-c&mode=related&search

@22 - well, if you want to define bottoming by having something "put inside" you, then a cunnilingus bottom would be the person receiving, as they are having something (a tongue) put inside them. At least, that's how I think of it.

Yes, my sympathies with the victim too; I've always found that closeted Republicans give toothy blow jobs.

The Advance Indiana link now has an update with a response allegedly from the accused's lawyer. In the response the lawyer notes that A) no charges have been filed, B) that the act was videotaped by the victim's sister, and C) that it was an act between consenting adults.

Of course, that is the basis for a legal defense. There is no defense for this man for using gay marriage as a wedge issue.
