Buzzflash - "So you're not gay if you're on top."

[Sparkle]

Jon Stewart cut to the chase about the GOP hypocrisy that embraces both the demagogic political exploitation of homophobia and gays at the top of the Republican Party and Internet gay hookers posing as journalists. Stewart said of the GOP support for Gannon/Guckert (who indicated that he was a dominant homosexual on one of his prostitution websites): "So you're not gay if you're on top."

That about sums it up for the GOP, which is using its usual shills --such as Howard Kurtz, Michael Isikoff, and Wolf Blitzer -- to portray Gannon/Guckert as a victimized gay. They did the same thing when they claimed Clarence "Stefan Fetchit" Thomas was the victim of a Democratic attack on blacks. Given that Republicans get political mileage out of opposing affirmative action and the like, it's kind of hard to swallow (excuse the imagery) the argument that Democrats weren't going to let a Hispanic like Alberto "Torquemada" Gonzales become the first Hispanic Attorney General because they are discriminatory, whatever his faults -- and sanctioning of torture and the executions of possibly innocent people are pretty big ones to overlook.

2. That does seem to be the standard prison philosophy.

But if Gannon/Guckert should, by some happenstance, end up in prison, I can guarantee that he won't be on top.
