		<description>one more time for the logic challenged: It is not being tolerant does not mean tolerating intolerance.

I suppose in your world black people should &quot;tolerate&quot; white supremacists and Jews should &quot;tolerate&quot; Nazis and if they don&#039;t, well they are being hateful and intolerant.

As for the rest of your rant, it&#039;s the typical hate filled, misinformed bigotry your type usually spew and no, I (we) have no obligation to &quot;tolerate&quot; it.</description>

		<description>Why is it &#039;ok&#039; to hate anyone? Why is it &#039;ok&#039; for Gays to hate those that don&#039;t believe in the unnaturalness of their actions? Why is it &#039;ok&#039; for Gays to put their sexuality in everyones face; who cares?! Why is it &#039;ok&#039; for Gays to be offended; like Gays don&#039;t offend people, like their actions are not offencive. Why is it &#039;ok&#039; for Gays to pass judgement on those who do not accept their LIFESTYLE CHOICE. You can&#039;t demand tolerance by being intolerant ... Well, it&#039;s not &#039;ok&#039;. I see a naked man every morning when I get out of the shower, to fall in love with what I see would be the unltimate act of selfishness. To not care how much it confuses the public, to have an agenda that indoctrinates school kids through sex ed, to destroy churches to label conservatives, to persue positions of power to push that agenda as activist judges or what have you, Gays act like &#039;racist&#039; No matter how bad it hurts their county, their community, their mothers or brother or friends. -&#039;Cause Gays are for Gays and against anyone that is anti-gay&#039;- That is selfishness ... to insist that the gay view of reality is the correct view, to fight for equality like your a race of people is a perversion. Your a group of individual people and each individual has the same rights as everyone else, no one is stopping anyone from being whoever they want to be or do what ever they want to do. Just seems to me that the haters are the Gays, they are the intolerate, self-centered arrogant sharped tongued slanderers who can&#039;t sit down and shut the heck up! Gays cant even accept who they are &#039;Man or Woman&#039; be what you see - &#039;Cause realy nobody else gives a crap ...</description>

		<description>This is not a gossip blog, but the real (or not) decade-long connection between Matt Drudge and Andrew Breitbart seems to be missing in all of the coverage of his death.

If I recall right, Matt Drudge met Andrew on a gay beach, fell in love, and taught Andrew how to be a rightwing blogger. Matt Drudge was widely suspected of being in the closet when he brought down President Clinton over a decade ago.

Is my memory right or is this only a rumor about Andrew Breitbart and Matt Drudge? If so, I&#039;ll shut up.</description>

		<description>anyone who thinks Michael Moore is &quot;honest&quot; simply hasn&#039;t done any fact checking on his work. The man lies, distorts facts, edits for effect and blatantly disregards the truth if it interferes with his narrative.  His one advantage over the slime that was Breitbart is that Moore is actually quite good at what he does.</description>

		<description>andrew, Moore isn&#039;t honest. Peruse any fact checking site (neutral ones, not right wing sites) . His &quot;documentaries&quot; are filled with deceptive editing and flat-out fabrications.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m really pissed about this article.  

There&#039;s a big difference between the kind of work Moore does, which is obnoxious, but honest, and the kind of things Breitbart did that didn&#039;t shade the truth, but actually falsified it.  He became a master of editing video to to be irrefutable evidence of one thing, when in many cases, it was very clearly something else.  

I&#039;m sure I could probably go through one of your postings, remove a word here or there, take out a few letters, and announce to the world that you&#039;ve threatened to personally kill all Latvians (hypothetically).  All it takes is selective editing and the will to deceive.  Breitbart had that will to deceive.  Moore, as obnoxious as he is, does not.  

As for GOProud being an indicator of gay-friendliness... I think you misunderstand the purpose of GOProud.  

The purpose of GOProud is to stand in as a shill for HRC and LCR, while remaining firmly under the thumb of straight Republican spinmeisters.  

The considered majority of the public do not follow gay politics in anything except the most shallow degree.  That means you can create bogus groups with virtually no following, and then claim equal standing with groups that actually have huge support and are not owned lock stock and barrel by the people they&#039;re supposedly trying to influence.  

This is so consistent with folks like Breitbart and Coulter who lack any moral fiber whatsoever, and will do anything and say anything in support of their positions.  And to support their media empire, built on making outrageous statements.  The idea that either of them had anything meaningful to say to the gay community, or even gay conservatives is a slap in the face, and, frankly, I take that very personally.  

How stupid do you think people are?</description>

		<description>Timothy said &quot;And what his participation did, along with that of Grover Norquist, Chuck Muth, and humorless comedienne Ann Coulter, was send a message that one could still be a Conservative Republican and be pro-gay.&quot;.

I don&#039;t know about the others, but Ann Coulter?!  I can&#039;t believe some of the stuff you come up with.  Ann coulter is certainly not pro-gay.  No one who opposes equality is pro-gay.</description>

		<description>We can say this: he was a human being (in the literal sense, anyway). The loss of a fellow person should give us all pause, if for no other reason than to marvel at our mortality and resolve to not waste what life we have.

To be perfectly honest, I had to look this man up. I have never heard of most of his sites, though I do recall encountering some of his major controversies. Truth be told, he might have gone unnoticed to me first, had his life not been so short. However, I am thankful to Timothy for offering up some thoughts, and otherwise allowing history to decide what this man actually offered to his fellow humans.</description>
