I think that candidate Obama needs to sit down and have a long talk with President Obama and remind him of what he said he stands for. Because, seriously. WTF with this nonsense: “Obama defends DOMA in federal court. Says banning gay marriage is good for the federal budget. Invokes incest and marrying children.”

Piece by piece, maybe we’ll finally get some equal rights. Now the bill goes to the House.

MTV Video Awards Humor Fail
I just saw the “Bruno” landing on Eminem thing and found it seriously disturbing. There’s nothing satirical nor humorous about an over-the-top caricature of a predatory gay stereotype sticking his bare ass in someone’s face. It’s not homophobic to react to having your personal space violated like the way Eminem’s was, and it is homophobic to assume that a gay...

Live Your Best Life Ever!  →
Because the truth is, some of what Oprah promotes isn’t good, and a lot of the advice her guests dispense on the show is just bad. The Suzanne Somers episode wasn’t an oddball occurrence. This kind of thing happens again and again on Oprah. Some of the many experts who cross her stage offer interesting and useful information (props to you, Dr. Oz). Others gush nonsense. Oprah, who...
