I saw this story over at Think Progress about the 2006 Values Voter Summit Circle Jerk. Key Republicans like Tony Snow were there and it was their job to be fluffers guys like 'Bishop' Wellington Boone who said things like this:
"Now they’re fussing on it, they’re saying a few things, but they don’t have me, you know, in their, you know, on their web sites. They’re not coming at me strong, and I would say this. Back in the days when I was a kid, and we see guys that don’t stand strong on principle, we call them “faggots.” A punk is — and our people, I’m from the ghetto, so sometimes it does come out a little bit. I got another one I’m gonna say in a minute — [laughter] — that don’t stand up for what’s right, we say, “You’re sissified out!” “You’re a sissy!” That means you don’t stand up for principles."
I definitely believe him when he says he's "from the ghetto". That's undeniable. But I strongly disagree with his assertion that his little name-calling fantasies happened in his childhood because it's blatantly obvious he is a still an immature, potty-mouthed, spoiled little brat who needs the attention of an audience. It's also a possibility that his fantasies are actually about man-on-man butt-sex and he just can't admit it.
But the Republican lovefest didn't stop there. Rev. Dwight McKissic of Cornerstone Baptist Church in Texas took the gay theme a little further and revealed his insight on the identity of the Anti-Christ. Apparantly, Damian will be gay, having no desire for women.
I would like to add that, according to The Omen series, the Anti-Christ will also be very cunning, clever, charismatic and smart. Therefore, from my Who Is The Anti-Christ list, I can safely remove George W. Bush. Because of these recent revelations however, I do have to admit that I'm a bit stumped. In Omen III: The Final Conflict, Damian was definitely not gay because he really gave it to Lisa Harrow's character. Nonetheless, I have revised my list with the whole gay thing in mind:
Who Is The Anti-Christ?
1. Karl Rove
2. Ken Mehlman
3. The Pope
4. 90% of Catholic Priests in the U.S.
5. 100% of the Log Cabin Republicans
6. Jim McGreevey
7. Jeff Gannon
8. Tom Cruise
9. SpongeBob SquarePants
10. Ann Coulter (yes - she IS a man)
