      <![CDATA[Really? The "mainstream news" ignored a comment made by a blogger? Even if he *is* a columnist whose articles don't typically make it out of the "Escorts" section of the seediest left-wing rag in town?<br />
<br />
Wow. Really, just wow. Please, do tell how the "mainstream media" is censoring the real news about my cat dying, or the tragic circumstances that lead to a drunkard's homelessness.<br />
<br />
Oh, and Dan? I think it might be time to stop googling yourself. ;)

      <![CDATA[I read the comments on that article.  I do not recommend it, I feel dumber already.  <br>
<br>
I have to say, good on you Dan for dealing with this all.the.time. and still doing what you're doing, and thank you we are winning.  Honestly, just reading the article and the comments makes me so angry and it's not even me it's attacking.  Crazy shits.

      <![CDATA[Huh... I've been reading Dan Savage since H.S., and that was a longer time ago than I'd like to admit, and I've never felt "herterobashed," whatever the hell that is. The comments were pretty special. Those folks are pretty darned fragile. You say one critical thing about their beliefs or their actions, and all of the sudden they're being bashed. And of course no one's read it. They already know ALL ABOUT IT from reading conservative columnists. I bet you probably none of them watched the Brian Brown interview.
