Politainment: McCain on Ellen


I'm still new to blogging, so I haven't yet figured out how to embed video on this site. Pathetic, I know, but look how much I learned in the first week already!

But it's vital that you click the link below and watch as Sen. John McCain proves that he's a homophobe who wishes gay people would just shut up and take the crumbs that the rightous hetero's have allotted them.

Fucking condescending prick.

I applaud Ellen for being a bigger and better person that Sen. McCain can ever hope to be, and I hope that her wedding is what brings many, many unenlighted people to the correct side of this issue.

Notice I did not call it a debate. A debate implies that there are valid points to both sides that can be defended. There is only one correct side here - the side that treats all gay people equally. Period.

Here's the Jezebel post (you may need to copy into your browser):

love watching him get backed into a corner -- "it feels like...you can sit there, but not there" I <3 you Ellen!

amen about the no debate thing...

he really did look backed into the corner. he had to have known he was going to get asked - and that's the best he could do? it's a difference of opinion? yuck.

On one hand, I give him credit for even showing up on Ellen in the present political climate. McCain is an interesting guy as far as his record goes. This is the same guy who voted YES on prohibiting same sex marriage in 1996 and then turned around and voted NO on a constitutional ban on same sex marriage in 2006. He leaves me scratching my head more times than not.
