O’DONNELLPHOBIA! Media Discovers Dreaded Gay-Hating Extremist Theocrat Is Related to People Who . . . Uh, Aren’t

In the famous words of the most successful politician in Delaware history: Big f***ing deal. Christine has a lesbian sister named Jennie, whom I’m pretty sure I met Wednesday while I was filing from the lobby of the Fairfield Inn in Dover.

If Meghan McCain Has Lost the Gays . . .

. . . then the only people who still have to pretend to like her are liberals: That’s a Tweet from Christopher Barron, chairman of the gay conservative organization GOProud, which is sponsoring the upcoming “Homocon” event with Ann Coulter in New York City.

Last week, a D.C. guide for out-of-towners attending the Restoring Honor rally was seized upon by the Left as evidence of Tea Party bigotry because it advised visitors to stick to the touristy parts of town, et cetera.

Ann Coulter to WND: ‘I Speak at Harvard and I Certainly Don’t Endorse Their Views’

The news that Ann Coulter would headline next month’s “Homocon,” a conference of gay Republicans in New York, has caused her to be dropped as a speaker at WorldNetDaily’s “Take Back America” conference: “Ultimately, as a matter of principle, it would not make sense for us to have Ann speak to a conference about ‘taking America back’ […]

Marriage of Convenience? No, Rosie O’Donnell Had a Marriage of Vengeance

The most absurd episode of Blame Bush Syndrome evah! “George Bush, in the middle of a war, had an all-station news conference to announce how horrible it was for the safety of America that gay people were getting married in San Francisco, which pissed me off enough to get on a plane and go get […]
