Gay Republicans
June 7th, 2007Call me crazy, but I think Roger Ailes just outed Billy O’Reilly.
“The candidates that can’t face Fox, can’t face Al Qaeda,” said Mr. Ailes. “And that’s what’s coming.”
Or is it Sean Hannity and Alan Colmes that he just outed? Maybe just Colmes. He is a Liberal. You know what, though: I haven’t watched H&C in years, but the last time I did was during the whole “Aruba!” scandal, when Colmes was sent down to Aruba to “investigate” and effectively kill all Liberal presence on the show.
I wonder if he ever got back from Aruba. He always looked a little like a corpse so they might’ve just put string to him and played him on the air. Wouldn’t surprise me! That is, after all, what’s been done with Walt Disney.
Speaking of gay Republicans, Bush’s new nominee for Surgeon General is causing quite the controversy for saying that “gay sex is hazardous to your health.” You know what I think? It’s all well and good to take offense at his right-wing righteousness (of which I see there’s a ton) but I’d really like to know what he believes about cancer, AIDS, the availability of vaccines, the funding of technologies, myself. Everybody’s always ready to have a social battle, which is fine sometimes, but I really wish the President wouldn’t bait the world by nominating a firebomber. I’d really like to hear about a surgeon general’s credentials and medical beliefs myself, but that’s impossible because the press wouldn’t cover it if a real doctor were nominated and Bush won’t nominate a real doctor.
Nobody whose appointment revolves around the words “hazardous” and “gay sex” has any business being nominated for Surgeon General.
