Last week of the quarter, I've got a bio final on Monday; there will be a weekend CWU, but I wanted to go ahead and get this miniature one out now.

The Wall Street Journal joins in the 'faggotisation' of John Edwards, using a lot of the same rhetoric as seen elsewhere;

Pope Benedict declares that all Catholic politicians must actively oppose civil marriage for gay and lesbian people, as well as legal abortion;

Hey, Hillary Clinton, Go Fuck Yourself - Senator Clinton (D) can't even manage to say t3h queers aren't intrinsically "immoral" when asked outright (spotted on my friendslist - it's friendslocked so I'm not saying who. If you want credit, lemmie know). I've just found out from the same source that she later, when asked repeatedly again later, issued a statement saying that she doesn't think t3h qu33rs are immoral. Assuming that's true, it took a couple of days to get that out of her, and I'm certainly continuing to assume that she'd do the same thanks-for-the-vote-now-here's-a-knife that her husband Bill "the Betrayer" Clinton did;

Hey, Garrison Keillor, Go Fuck Yourself - the long-time host of the popular radio programme A Prairie Home Companion, Garrison Keillor, apparently feels encouraged by Ann Coulter's "faggot" commentary to "state the obvious" - that queers aren't fit parents for children and marriage is with one man and one woman only ever and all those hyphenated-relatives from divorce are screwing things up compared with how things were when he was a kid;

Hey, Garrison Keillor, Go Fuck Yourself - Dan Savage points out that you have to take all of this crap from Garrison while ignoring his three marriages with kids from more than one, and his extramarital affairs. Presumably that's all okay if you're straight, after all. A defense of Mr. Keillor's comments are here, but I'm not buyin' it;

Mike Adams on Townhall defends the Coulter commentary, noting that "faggot" is going to go the way of "queer," which is to say that he missed when it was a perfectly good word when he and his friends used to play "smear the queer" in school, presumably practicing their gaybashing skills. Note that he refers to "the outing of John Edwards," implying rather directly that John Edwards is gay, when he is clearly and patently not. So the real point of this column is the continued "faggotisation" of John Edwards;

Albert Mohler Jr.'s column calling for prenatal intervention to eliminate GBLT people by altering them before birth finally gets a reaction in the mainstream press; he's president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, which matters. Pointer courtesy [livejournal.com profile] spazzkat.
