Madonna's commercial? I like it.

What, a lisp is the 'gay language' like a Southern drawl or Spanish? OFG.
Fox is a joke.

I thought that the "gay love" montage video was beautiful and sexy and romantic.
I must be getting soft and mushy in my old age.

First off, fuck Fox news. Secondly, Clinton was using a very famous quote by a southern author as the beginning of her speech. She didnt speak that way for the entire speech, just one portion. I dont understand how Fox News gets away with things like the "lisp" comment. You can tell she had to stop herself when she got to black people and she said "say..uhh..phrases." lol

The gay love montage rules. Madonna is hysterical and FAUX 'News' is for ignorant, bigoted, redneck wingnut neocons. And the Sims are, well, the Sims.

I love the gay montage video. Like Travis, I am getting soft and mushy in my old age. It brought a tear to my eye and reminded me how much I love some of those movies.

Clip: Gay Love
Who is the hot guy that does the aggressive kiss to the former Wings star near the beginning of the clip?
The clip of the male love is awesome and sexy.
Clip: Fox News
Edie Hill is very pro-South so her lashing out is expected. She's not smart either.
Clip: Lawerence vs. Texas
So true. It's good that someone made that video to explain the case to people that don't know.

Classic songs never die, not in 2007, or in any year.

Jack: that's Michael T. Weiss kissing Steven Weber in Jeffrey (1995). Wonderful scene.

Madonna is a self-serving attention whore who has been given far too much credence by the gay rights movement. She has done nothing for gay rights except damage it. Case in point: her sleazy straight male fantasy stunts such as her kiss with Britney Spears. Go away, Madonna. You're not wanted in the gay community.

ED Hill is Rupert Murdoch's resident tampon at Fox News. This vile creature has the diction of trailer trash and a mealy mouth dripping with right-wing porridge. I wonder how she feels working alongside Steve Doocey, a man who sets off my gaydar.

My God... do Americans call this travesty journalism??.. I know we have the papparatzi and tabloids in this country (UK)to deal with, much to our shame. I would have thought however, that a respected Broadcaster like Fox would know better than to extract a section of Hillary Clinton's speech (totally out of context), and obviously putting on an an accent to emphasise what is obviously para-phrasing, and turn it into a news story is just sad.. Note to Fox: Get off your sad Arses, ditch your lazy journalism and go out and report on REAL stories. Christ knows there's enough horror and injustice out there..

Thank you, KevinVT! I just looked at some of his bios and they say nothing about his personal life. Do you think he's gay? That would be great if he is and whoever is the lucky guy, wow what a catch.

I love the gay love vid! It's going in my favorite box. Would have been better without the tacky dance music.

How is that smearing gays? You guys are hysterical! If she wanted to sound gay, she'd probably say something like, "Guuuuuuuurl, I don't feel tired. Nobody told me the line at the Roxy would be long!"
Fox is so much more even-handed than CNN or CBS, and studies have shown that. I'll take Bill O'Reilly over Anderson Cooper any day of the week.

Fox? Even-handed? Has April Fool's Day come early this year?

Cyd, you kill me.

I love the song on the "gay love" video - does anyone know what the title is? The beat and especially the words to the song match up with the video scenes perfectly.

Michael: Hurrah! My sentiments ENTIRELY re tired old Madge - you said it so much more succintly than I ever could. I have never understood the adulation by gay men. I thought Boy George made a legitimate point about the contradiction in her position as, on the one hand, sacrosanct gay icon and Kabbalah inspired benefactor on the other given that Judaism is antithetical to homosexuality.. Her self-indulgent attempts to court controversy and create an ‘edgy’ persona are transparent. Fact is, she is a married, straight, white, multi-millionairess with 3 kids who lives an extremely privileged life in a Wiltshire pile and several other homes around the world...ultimately, she has very little in common with the sorts of lives
most of us lead…
I adore the gay love kisses viddy esp. the adoring look those 2 in the car give each other. Nothing wrong with getting mushy and misty-eyed! It's all good.
