Kacee Bait

I love Kacee to death. And this is bound to lure her. Mostly because it mentions Lady Gaga. The less said, the better.

Anyways, I'm gonna rack this one up as "One for the girlfriend".

Democracy in America jumps on Paladino's recent anti-gay rant. The takeaway jumps out right off the bat:

HERE'S a rule of thumb on whether or not it's appropriate to take children to a gay-pride parade.

1. Me taking my children to a gay-pride parade: Appropriate!

2. Me taking your children to a gay-pride parade without asking you: Not appropriate!

From the comments:

Yet it's presumably not brainwashing to teach yr kids that spontaneously combusting shrubs talk, that the voices in your head telling you to kill your child are actually God, and that people get turned into actual pillars of salt (I'd add "virgins give birth", et al, but he was addressing religious Jews rather than Christians...)

The self-unawareness of some folks on the religious right is utterly mind boggling...

As well as:

If Paladino is bothered by "very extreme-type people", how can he stand being in the 2010 version of the Republican Party ?

And finally:

I will be voting for Mr. Paladino. Not for governor, of course, but for Most Likely to be the Next Republican Found Out to be Secretly Gay. "Stumbled upon a Gay Pride parade". Please.

So again, to the supposedly out-gay man staffing for Paladino....What's the deal dude? Is it a sex thing?
