Reno and Beyond: My Cat’s Getting Everything
- City Council voted yes on the stadium deal. It looks like the terms have been settled on so I can now express my excitement about the project. Hot damn!
- Poor old soon to be ex-Senator Larry Craig. You never know who your real friends are until you’re convicted of a misdemeanor for what is considered an indicator of gay sex. Admittedly procuring the services of prostitutes, adultery, and wearing diapers is no problem for those same friends. Gay sex is absolutely the worst possible thing that a Republican can do.
- Just ask Tucker Carlson who defended himself from unwanted gay sex by getting a buddy and grabbing the offenders “you know” before they both banged his head against the bathroom stall. How macho….I mean, how gay. And did you notice this little gem in the transcript?
CARLSON: And then the cops came and arrested him. But let me say that I’m the least anti-gay right-winger you’ll ever meet –
That’s right folks. Tucker just outed all right-wingers as anti-gay. Understand that he’s the least anti-gay of the anti-gayers, but there you go. Nobody has to pretend anymore. Thank God.
- This Joe Orton joke is the reason why I love James Wolcott–that and the whole punk rock/bird watching/cat-owning thing. Seriously, how more apropos can you get? I don’t even know if he meant the macabre=black part of it. And don’t feel bad if you don’t get it–I have obscure literary interests many of which were spawned by film actors (Gray Oldman in this case. Trivia: Prick Up Your Ears was my second Stephen Frears film.).
- More about crook and Governor of Mississippi Haley Barbour.
- Bloody hell–news of more war profiteering by members of the armed forces among others.
- Sadly, Richard Jewell died today. You’ll remember that the FBI famously leaked that he was their main suspect in the 1996 Olympic bombings. He finally got some of the recognition he deserved last year when he was recognized by the Georgia governor for his heroism on the 10th anniversary of the bombings. Of course it was anti-abortion activist Eric Rudolph who was responsible for the bombing.
- Do you got to sleep each night easily assured of the fact that there is absolutely no way that the Bush Administration could possibly be planning an attack on Iran? If so, don’t read this article by Larisa Alexandrovna and Muriel Kane at The Raw Story.
- Can I be some elderly person’s pet? Preferably someone who’s already had a stroke or heart attack and it over the age of 75. I’ll only ask for $10 million–its a steal.

I don’t think right-wingers are anti-gay as much as they are anti-gay marriage.

Disagree. It was the fashion in which Craig was caught that was so offensive. Soliciting sex (in this case gay) anonymously in a public restroom is the reason for the outrage. Sure, it doesn’t help that is was a man he solicited but the salacious details of the incident are what make most people (on both sides) repulsed. If he wants man meat, why not hire a discreet escort? His judgment is clearly lacking, as evidenced by this arrest.
The easy answer. So Vitter wasn’t arrested while wearing diapers. Does that make his confession, his adultery, his law breaking any less? Or his diaper wearing less perverted (in Republican terms anyway)? Its the idea of male gay sex anywhere. Bathrooms are definitely worse, but its the gay sex that’s the real issue. You don’t hear about mayors trying to purchase timed public toilets to keep out the heterosexuals who have sex in public places…
If it was a she-male, would they care just a bit less?
