The A-List Dallas premiered a couple of weeks ago on LOGO TV and it's already causing major cultural waves. The show profiles five gay guys and their gal pal Ashley Kelly, a buxom Barbie-blond who proclaims glibly in the first episode, "The higher the hair the closer to Jesus!" Filled with cowboy boots, prayer meetings, love triangles quadrangles, major drama and copious amounts of alcohol, it's a wild ride and definitely worth watching.

Since he is such an awful cross between a gay stereotype and a log cabin repbulican, I have to say I actually pray for him to be straight too.

And I'm an atheist.

Tolerance need not yield to willful ignorance.

"First of all, I hate a hypocrite. And I know a lot of hypocritical politicians that are gay; I know a lot of people on Fox News that are gay and every day they talk about gay issues and they’re out having sex behind closed doors with escorts and prostitutes. I find that to be disturbing....
On the political side I find it extremely disturbing when there are politically elected officials who are voting against gay rights but at the same time they’re banging some guy against closed doors."

*************

This kid is young, but still, his own hypocrisy is insane.

How can he not feel hypocritical being a proud member of a party that professes to be the party of civil liberties, but in reality is the party aggressively pushing to limit HIS OWN?

The kid seems to be from money, as most gay Republicans I've met are. AND he's Christian.

These guys are moderately accepted in their families - tolerated, indeed - but it would be different if they were to become....LIBERALS.

So they kid themselves and consider themselves part of an exclusive club, the GOP gay, where they are above the lowly, nasty liberals their parents so detest...so they abnegate their dignity and self-respect at the expense of other gays who know better than to commit their loyalty to the Republican party.

It's a grotesque display of self-loathing. Very sad.

As will I, Taylor.

God loves you either way, but there's a drop-off point.

That shows you the "power" of prayer.

Why? You don't like that it is clearly Christians who feel that if their child is gay they cannot love them as they are but must try to "pray away teh gay"

If any of my kids said they were gay, it wouldn't change my love for them. I would not acknowledge their lifestyle as anything to take seriously, and I wouldn't go to their wedding.

I would tolerate their lifestyle, I would never accept it. As it should be.

I thought it would be impossible to find a more awful, stereotypical group than the ones from NY but I was wrong.

On the other hand, those young men act like most people I have met from Texas.

It's true there are some shallow, not too bright or literate people in Dallas (like anywhere else), but the show is fake and this group of people aren't even up to D List level. There are lots of really handsome, witty and well educated people in Dallas too.

And I pray that this type of show - fake "reality" - just go away.
