There’s an interesting article over at The New Yorker about the incongruent attitudes about pre-marital sex and teen pregnancy among Christian conservatives.
During the campaign, the media has largely respected calls to treat Bristol Palin’s pregnancy as a private matter. But the reactions to it have exposed a cultural rift that mirrors America’s dominant political divide. [...]
I’ve finally sat down and watched Four Weddings and a Funeral. You know what? I really liked it. OK, granted. I’m gay. Chick flicks are not exactly foreign territory. And I must admit the whiskey probably has had some influence on my thinking…or at least what passes for thinking when one has consumed as much [...]
From Greg Prince’s Blog:
What if John McCain were a former president of the Harvard Law Review?`
What if Barack Obama finished fifth from the bottom of his graduating class?

I could only take about ten minutes of the presidential debate before I had to get up and go into another room.
Senator McCain, you are not my friend. We have almost nothing in common. Granted I have as little in common with Senator Obama, but at least he’s not presumptuous enough to claim to be [...]
The truly disgusting thing about Sarah Palin isn’t that she’s totally unqualified, or a religious zealot, or married to a secessionist, or unable to educate her own daughter about sex, or a fake conservative who raised taxes and horked up earmark millions every chance she got. No, the most disgusting thing about her is what [...]
