Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
Yesterday I mentioned John Hawkin’s post explaining why he is sponsoring HomoCon. I thought a nice companion piece would be Nick Gillespie’s post reprinting the HomoCon platform, a platform I think that all conservatives will find agreeable. Remember (as if you, my dear readers, ever forget): Unlike the statists/regressives/so-called liberals,
Continue readingI know that much is being said amongst both Progressives and Conservatives about Kagan’s possible lesbianism. Progressives are mad at her for being in the closet; Conservatives are worried about her orientation affecting her rulings as a Supreme Court judge. Both are completely wrong. Regarding the Progressive’s disdain for Kagan’s
Continue readingIn 1931, Nancy Langhorne Astor’s son Robert Gould Shaw III was arrested for committing a homosexual act (in a park, I believe). This was a continuation of a long-standing British public policy of prosecuting “sodomists.” Arguably the most famous prosecution was that against Oscar Wilde, for public indecency. The trial,
Continue readingIn my previous post, I talked about the way in which the Left desperately tries to cubby-hole people, events and ideas, without any real understanding of what lies beneath those labels. Seconds after I finished writing that post, I read this newspaper article, which sounds like a parody, but isn’t:
Continue readingYou and I know the incredible peculiarities of the Leftist world, which sees feminists ignoring sharia’s worst outrages and gay activists who are out in full cry trying to establish a fully Muslim Middle East, a place in which the only good gay activist will be a dead gay activist.
Continue readingTwo days ago, I brought to your attention the fact that the San Francisco School Board — despite facing a $113 million dollar budget shortfall over the next two years, despite its admission that it will be cutting summer school and academic programs, and despite the fact that there has
Continue readingI don’t have a comment here. I just think this story is interesting: An unclassified study from a military research unit in southern Afghanistan details how homosexual behavior is unusually common among men in the large ethnic group known as Pashtuns — though they seem to be in complete denial
Continue readingThis is a portmanteau post, filled with interesting things I read today, some of which come in neatly matched sets. Opening today’s San Francisco Moronicle, the first thing I saw was that an illegal teen’s arrest is causing a stir in San Francisco’s halls of power. You see, San Francisco
Continue readingNo, my post title does not mean I’ve gone off my rocker and started supporting Kevin Jennings in his role as Safe Schools Czar. Thanks to Terresa Monroe’s hard work, I’ve known for months exactly what kind of person Kevin Jennings, the “Safe School Czar” is. He’s a career gay
Continue readingI’ve now received five emails bringing to my attention a post at Hillbuzz, a blog that (as best as I can tell) is written by two gay Hillary supporters. (And thanks to all of you who did bring it to my attention.) What makes the post at Hillbuzz so unusual
Continue readingYou remember Prop. 8, don’t you? That was the successful California ballot initiative that said that, in America, marriage is between a man and a woman. Immediately after November 4, gay rights activists sued. So far, the courts are being helpful. A court in the Northern District of California just
Continue readingI’m a libertarian and a child of San Francisco in the 1970s. What this means is that I believe, very strongly, that people should be allowed to engage in same sex relationships. I also believe that people who are homosexual (and any subset of that, such as lesbian, bisexual, etc.),
Continue readingKevin Jennings, as you recall, is Obama’s Safe Schools Czar. He’s the one who came under fire because (a) he boasts in his autobiography about giving a 15 year old gay boy safe sex advice regarding a sexual relationship with an adult man, as opposed to dealing with a statutory
Continue readingThe Queen and Prince Phillip were born in the 1920s. They are, I gather, inherently conservative people. While moving in the British upper classes has no doubt exposed them to a great many gays and lesbians (and I’m sure their manners allow them to take those interactions in stride), I’m
Continue readingIdentity politics turns people into one dimensional characters, who must act out a set script. If you’re black or Hispanic, you must be a Democrat, even if you oppose abortion, take a jaundiced view of gay marriage, and want school choice. If you’re a woman, you must support equal pay
