Death of a President

Is it wrong that I want to see this movie? Maybe. But it is an award winner after all, and I am a film buff. That's my reason why, I swear!

Comment at your own risk, people. I'm already on the watchlist.

    Someone should make a movie called "Death of our democracy." I'll send you a nice cake Doug R, when you're sent to Gitmo. I'll even tie the yellow ribbons too.

    President Cheney will veto the cake bill, I'm pretty sure, but thanks in advance for thinking of me! :-)

    I know what you mean Doug. When I saw a commercial or something about this movie many months ago, I felt like I should do ten Hail Mary's and five Our Fathers...I got a little excited and thought, "Ooo...I wanna see that." And I HATE going to the theatre. ha...I wait for the DVD's.

    Yeah, can't believe I didn't know about this before now. Funny bit of trivia, though: even though I know most visitors never comment anyway, and only a couple of my regular people commented on this, the traffic to the "Death of a President" post kind of skyrocketed. I thought that was funny.

Don't Ask, Don't Tell - Just Do It

Like most other gay folks, I was gratified the other night to hear President Obama announce at the State of the Union address his intention to put repealing Don't Ask, Don't Tell on the agenda for 2010. Of course we were all hyped when we heard it the first time, too. Back when he was pandering the rainbow coalition for votes during his campaign, pledging to be a "fierce advocate" for LGBT rights. To start working toward getting rid of DADT during his first year as president was part of that promise. Not that he has totally snubbed us, I guess, but tagging him a "fierce advocate" is probably a stretch . It's really little wonder that much of the queer community reacted approvingly, but also with a fair amount of skepticism, the other night after hearing him vow again to do what he vowed once before with nothing gotten done so far. This DADT thing, I wouldn't think, should be such a big ordeal to get over and done with in short order. Even military p...

Hung on the Cross

So what, I'm not very mature for my age. I don't care, I'm easily amused because of it, and I enjoy being amused. Like this picture of a crucifix which was hoisted a couple of months ago above the main altar at the St. Charles Borromeo Catholic church in Oklahoma: I can come up with lots of hilariously inappropriate captions here, some that even I am embarrassed to admit thinking up, despite my unabashed crudity. I would share but probably everyone else is too sophisticated to see the humor. Plus, I really don't want to go to Hell. I'm guessing that there are an awful lot of Okie parishioners down there at the church where this is hung for real, who I reckon wouldn't appreciate my sense of humor about it, either. They are, in general, hugely offended by it instead, because they see nothing funny whatsoever about displaying Jesus' ginormous penis in church, not in the least bit! Seems as though this has caused quite a "deep divide" among members o...
