gays

Yesterday, President Obama awarded the Medal of Honor to Army Staff Sgt. Sal Giunta for putting himself in the line of fire to save two comrades during an ambush in Afghanistan in October 2007. But however much courage it took to do that, the American Family Association’s Bryan Fischer just cannot get over how gay [...]

Cindy McCain was allowed to be part of the NOH8 campaign because she was sort of part of the 2008 election, we guess, the election in which Proposition 8 was passed. So she thinks gays should have some rights or whatever, even if her husband doesn’t because he will say anything to stay in the [...]

President Obama criticized Israel for its approval of new settlements in East Jerusalem today, which is surprising not because Jews should be allowed to have whatever land they want, because of the Bible, but because Obama hates the Jews and their rightful country. Or perhaps, considering he said this in Indonesia, Obama was just afraid [...]

THE HOMOSEXUAL AGENDA LIVES! Michigan assistant attorney general Andrew Shirvell has now been fired by Republican state Attorney General Mike Cox (the guy who previously defended this as an important First-Amendment right) for “harrassing” a college kid because he was in the student government and gay. Sorry, he was in the student government AND A [...]

Republican congressional candidate Sean Bielat has a simple logic problem for you here: If men shorter than 5’2″ can’t serve in military combat, why should gays get to? “I don’t see anybody protesting. Where are the people standing in front of the White House, the short guys standing in front of the White House? You [...]

We remember it like it was yesterday, but actually it was 9/12: Your part-time morning editor was walking dejectedly through a Tea Bagger field, and then Andrew Breitbart appeared from the mist in a gorgeous Victorian gown and drunkenly groped us for what seemed like “too long.” It was such a special, Charlotte Bronte moment. [...]

Because all Republican rhetoric is about how the ELITE represses the PEOPLE and we should always side with the PEOPLE against the ELITE and their SINISTER GOVERNMENT, you might think that America’s actual economic elite would be opposed to Republican policies. You would be wrong, though! For instance, over the course of this cycle rich [...]

Look, you guys, the Obama administration really wants to end Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell! They are totally with you on that! But because they are very fussy and have to have just the perfect little bow to tie on the end of this intolerance, you’re going to have to let them do it their way. [...]

The Pentagon has advised recruiting commands that they can accept openly gay and lesbian recruit candidates, given the recent federal court decision that bars the military from expelling openly gay service members, according to a Pentagon spokeswoman. So, military recruiters at high schools, you are no longer allowed to shoot weird glances at the drama [...]

Colorado Republican Senate candidate Ken Buck has thoughtful things to say about gay people and their gayness — which is just a bad habit, like biting your nails or constantly drinking grain alcohol: GREGORY: In a debate last month, you expressed your support for don’t ask, don’t tell, which we talked about with Mr. Gibbs. [...]

Who knew Carl Paladino would be so much fun, what with his homosexual gay-man night clubs and the boobies and the gay parades? We thought he was just an ignorant boring gazillionaire creep who forced racist porn on his underlings!

No matter how much he tries to escape it, Carl Paladino’s life is full of the gay he hates so much. That whole New York gay pride parade he thought was so disgusting? Yeah, one of his “key advisors,” Roger Stone, was at that thing. So was Roger Stone’s shirtless body and that of a [...]

Your Wonkette attended a Trevor Project benefit last weekend, which raised money to help combat teen suicide. In case you have been trapped in a Chilean mine for the last two months: There have been a number of recent cases in which gay teens — bullied and harassed because of their sexuality — have taken [...]

Carl Paladino likes to point to his gay nephew, Jeff Hannon, as evidence that he’s no homophobe. That’s funny, because Jeff Hannon seems to think Carl Paladino is a homophobe, as the 23-year-old has stopped showing up to work at the Paladino campaign. This is according to the New York Post, which also wants you [...]

Have you ever gotten into an argument with someone about, say, racial relations, and halfway through it the dude is all like, “Really, anything terrible I say about the blacks is totally not racist because MY SISTER DATES A BLACK GUY AND I’M TOTALLY FINE WITH IT”? This is an annoying but sometimes effective rhetorical [...]
