Damien is correct Oscar Guy. Both Obama and Hillary are "against gay marriage" (meaning, they have to say this because a lot of Americans are against gay marriage) but they're both in favor of civil unions. Obama though has been more vocal in denouncing homophobia and has come out AGAINST...

Javier Bardem on filming "Before Night Falls" > ON THE REVELATORY FILMING EXPERIENCE: “I can now grasp how a man could look at another man and immediately want to lift his legs to Jesus.” > ON JOHNNY DEPP AS TRANSVESTITE PRISON GUARD BON BON: “When I first saw Bon Bon on the set, I didn’t...

It's a puzzle to me why ANY gay person (non self-loathing anyway) would support the Clintons given that Bill approved "Don't Ask Don't Tell", signed the Defense of Marriage Act into law, and said in 2004 that John Kerry should come out strongly against gay marriage (before and after he lo...

Shouldn't he be PROUD of opposing the Patriot Act and supporting a ban on handguns?? NEW YORK TIMES February 29, 2008 Obama Gets a Taste of the Coming Battle By ADAM NAGOURNEY WASHINGTON — When Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton goes after Senator Barack Obama these days, she presses him on the details...

This totally makes up for her crying about that dog. Good for her. Seriously though, this story is horrific and sad, and her point is a good one -- using marginalized people for punch lines is just the beginning of the hate cycle. I'm glad she made that smooth transition into voting for a candidate...

Liking her more and more... THE WASHINGTON POST Staying to Help in Iraq February 28, 2008 We have finally reached a point where humanitarian assistance, from us and others, can have an impact. By Angelina Jolie The request is familiar to American ears: "Bring them home." But in Iraq, wher...

Exactly. Shame on both sides. THE NATION February 28, 2008 (March 17, 2008 issue) Obama, Being Called a Muslim Is Not a Smear Naomi Klein Hillary Clinton denied leaking the photo of Barack Obama wearing a turban, but her campaign manager says that even if she had, it would be no big deal. "Hil...

My god, the woman is pathetic. She came across as whiny, petulant, straining to be funny -- and from the looks of it, the audience was not won over. She needed to score big last night and she just made it even easier for Obama instead. Hillary please. Save yourself some dignity. Call it quits now, ...
