That's ridiculous. Romney's spine is made of a poly-metal alloy, the same as the rest of his chassis.

This sounds like one of those Corel things...where they get someone to buy into something and then condemn it two weeks later to muddy the waters.

No one's buying it.

Let me save you the trouble of reading the full thing from Sullivan: "zomg!!! you guys, Republicans hate teh gays!!!!" Yeah thanks for that insight Andrew. Most of us realized that back when you were endorsing George W. Bush for president in 2000. Headline: Huge gay douschebag fired by his even bigger douschebag bosses.

This is not true.

Romney had a spine.

He keeps it with his money in Switzerland, where until recently all the income was hidden from the IRS, so he could avoid both US military service for him and all five of his sons, and avoid US taxes for the wars his comrades get America dragged into, but then are "too busy" to put their own lives or their kids lives on the line for.

How many openly gay people have senior roles in the Obama Administration?

No, tell me right now...before Googling!

@5: without googling, I think the highest ranking gay person would be at the Assistant or deputy assistant secretay level. What's your point?

#6

And that person would be...uh, um, er,,,,yeah, I have that list right here...oh...the dog ate it!!

Come back next Tuesday, would you?

So, no point? Thanks!

@6
"What's your point?"

There was no point.
It was a reflex demand-for-information-in-an-attempt-to-set-up-a-false-equivalency.

@5 A lot. Can I name them? No, but I also can't name the vast majority of senior officials in the Obama administration beyond Cabinet level positions (and even those I don't know all of them). However I do remember an article from a while back that said that Obama has more gay officials than Clinton and Bush combined in their entire terms.

Gosh, you're right. There's no significant difference between Romney and Obama on gay issues. Romney would have been just as quick to get rid of DADT. And he would have directed his AG to stop defending DOMA.

I'm thoroughly convinced that Mitt luvs us gays. Can't wait to cheer on the Mitt floatt in this year's gay parade!

Mitt Romney has no spine. Andrew Sullivan has no brain.

Cowardly, cowardly, stuff. Considering the sublimely craven encounter Romney had with that gay Vietnam vet a few months back, this should come as no surprise. Mitt Romney does not care one whit about the plight of LGBT Americans.

Some fear extremist politicians, but far more sinister is the leader who simply ignores the marginalized. Never forget, Bush didn't despise New Orleans, he simply didn't care.

Well, as his momma said, weren't they really all much better off in Houston?

Please wait...
