Does it really matter what John McCain thinks about our families struggle for equality? No, no it doest not -all that matters is the historic ruling by the California supreme court. I will never forget that momment when I heard the news.
The irrelevance of McCain to the national discourse becomes more and more obvious everyday, and it's a shame. This country would be a whole lot better off today had he become POTUS in 2000 instead of the establishment shrub. Now McCain seems only to mouth the blather his advisors tell him scores well in surveys and focus groups. Get ready America, Obama is going to be the next POTUS.
Ellen DeGeneres suffers from M.S.D. Misdirected Sexuality Disorder. This is a condition in which the normal attraction for the opposite gender is perverted and re-directed towards members of one's own gender. Many people are able to overcome its pernicious effects through aversion therapy and positive redirection of their sexual desires towards members of the opposite gender. Hopefully, she will enter a treatment program and be cured of her affliction.
McCain really screwed up Thursday. He should have been in DC, doing his job as a Senator and voting for GI benefits. Instead, he publicly speaks out against helping veterans go to college, flies to California to do fundraisers. Obama rightly criticizes his stance, and McCain replies with some rambling diatribe that makes him sound like he didn't get his annual rabies shot.
To be cute, McCain decides to visit everyone's favorite gay talk show host a week after she announces her wedding to one of the hottest women on Earth. McCain then gets in a debate where he tells her that she shouldn't be allowed to get married. Ellen, a comedian and sitcom star, schools him in the debate because he cannot articulate his half-baked position. She lets him off easy by inviting him to walk her down the aisle, making it look like Ellen started feeling sorry for him.
If this is a sign of McCain's campaign strategy, he's going to make Bob Dole look like Ronald Reagan.
You are most certainly different. You are tolerant, thoughtful, intelligent, and open-minded.
I don't suppose you would consider running for President? Hey, a girl can dream, right?
