Naff is a peckerhead who doesn’t seem to understand that marriage is a state issue and that Obama’s endorsement one way or the other doesn’t matter one bit. And Blubbo Barney should shut up and retire. He couldn’t even get ENDA passed when the Democrats had control of both houses of Congress with a supportive President. The Blade needs a total makeover to focus on issues like hair, food, clothes, and decorating, with less emphasis on all this boring political crap. So there.

WOW! Kinda early for a Blade endorsement of Obama for re-election in 2012, isn’t it?

“When gay America takes its hands off of PC mouses and gets into the streets, only then can you talk about wimps. Not a moment before. So—STFU.”

Well, it seems to be working for Tunisia…. And now Yemen….. and now Egypt… and… and… Oh, and Blarney does gets paid (quite well) to help discourage mass protests in the Capitol… as does HRC, I am sure. Because you don’t see HRC encouraging civil disobedience, do you? No, only strict conformity and oBEDience… SIT! HEEL! HEIL! Not joking…… go Tooooneeeesia…!!! Eeeeeegypt!! DeeeeeCeeeee!!

Want to have voting rights? Gonna have to march in the streets someday…..

Dan Savage is bold albeit wishful and that’s what this community needs. Never throw in the pink towel, we must wave it everywhere and always, beyond party lines. I respect your strategy in budgeting efficiency efforts, but there’s nothing saying we can’t have it all unless we ourselves say that.

Wow, you sound kind of jealous. We should know after DADT that shutting up isn’t a good option.

Kinda reminds me when Blarney told us to shut up last time and stay off the lawn. They had DADT and ENDA all worked out for us they did. That and some land in FL. You sit back and cover white parties I am going to continue to demand my rights,

The state workers just lost protections in FL what do you think waiting is going to do for us?

Oh please. Kevin’s right. And he’s right because there isn’t a physical movement to back up any demands on gay marriage right now. If there were then it would be a different story. But more braying and whining and complaining? Boring.

No, it’s time to get real. And Kevin’s take sounds grounded and sensible. You’re in no position or any other gay person in America to call Kevin or anyone else a wimp.

When gay America takes its hands off of PC mouses and into the streets only then can you talk about wimps. Not a moment before. So—STFU.

Good god! Strong words of weakness, there! You know, that makes me think…

When we think about positive social change, who comes to mind? The noble crusaders who fought and died for their cause? Sure! The evil conservative dirtbags, whose false perception of the world was long overdue for a reboot? Of course! So who don’t we think of…

…oh, yeah! The sniveling, naysaying, tiptoeing cowards, who spent their free time telling the crusaders to keep it down, to take it slow, “to come back down to earth.”

“Gwarsh, because a major success isn’t likely, I guess we shouldn’t try, huh? Because we won’t be able to hit a home run, let’s just stand in front of the pitching mound and take a hit, square in the jaw.” That’s sound advice. I’m glad no one who matters has ever listened to it.
