Most of us hate how he reacted, so put away the broad brush. And as Priya pointed out we haven't campaigned and legislated AGAINST straight people one iota.

He's a sleaze ball who gives people a bad name. While I'm not gay, having very Libertarian views on social issues, it's stupid for those who say they "want tolerance" themselves are not. The gay movement makes itslef look bad because rather than wanting to be left alone, it's turned into a Nazi style movement where if you don't agree you're a phobe and should be banished to the Russian front as they used to say in the old days. Tolerance should be on both sides and not just demanded of those without doing the same. Perez Hilton should be # 1 on the list. He’s a sleaze ball who gives people a bad name.

So congratulations to everyone nominated! But why "Grinch"? That seems to imply a lack of Christmas spirit, to me (ie. How the Grinch Stole Christmas). PP is not very gifted with language (except the crude sexually explicit sort), is he? “the meanest, most deceitful, most socially destructive and/or most blasphemous “gay” activist of the year.”
