  4. #3 – He can’t, ILC. He’s just mad as hell that it wasn’t Slick Willie who did it first.

  6. #5 – Yet if it were a Dhimmicrat who did this, you’d be screaming “free cosmos for all” at your favorite watering hole.

    Hypocrisy, thy name is liberalism.

  7. The fact that W did not pitch a fit (and never did ) is good for me. There has been some conflict over hiring translators of Arabic just because they were gay (stupid, if true), but the fact that an openly gay

    W did something good. Or at least did not do something stupid. Deal with it.

  8. because they were gay (stupid, if true), but the fact that an openly gay

  9. Dear Peter,

    Regardless of who is in office, it isn’t much of a advance. Period. I know you fantasize about me sipping cosmos, imagining the straw between my lips, wishing it were you.

    XXOO

  11. #9: “I know you fantasize about me sipping cosmos, imagining the straw between my lips, wishing it were you.”

    Jabba thought the same thing when he looked at Leia, but it didn’t keep her from strangling him with a rusty chain.

  12. There has been some conflict over hiring translators of Arabic just because they were gay (stupid, if true),

    To be clear, it was gay translators from the military. There’s nothing against gay translators working for DOD, DOS etc. I forget the name or the title, but Bush appointed a gay man to DOD to recruit translators.

    I know you fantasize about me sipping cosmos,

    Dear Pinko,

    I think he mentioned Cosmos because it’s a total fag pansy drink. Not to mention the fact that NOBODY would drink it with a straw. Sure you could, but you’d look like a dumb….well, you know.

  13. My idea of progress? Doing away with Poets Laureate altogether!

    This is an appropriate function of government?

  14. #11-12: Thanks, guys. Glad to know that you’ve got my back.

    As for the reality-challenged Pinky Bear – get over yourself.
