Towleroad Guide to the Tube #371
THAT ONE: Diddy takes to his vlog to discuss the Nashville Town Hall.
NORM COLEMAN: The Minnesota Senator's spokesman gets cornered by reporters on accusations he received suits as a gift from businessman and friend Nasser Kazeminy. I wish the press was this insistent with McCain-Palin.

Madonna needs to rename her current Tour
STINGY and CHEAP
the fact that at this point of her current Tour, she hasn't done anything to support her gays and at list donate some money to fight NO ON PROP 8 is beyond me.
Boycott her music F O R E V E R !!!!!

The No on 2 ad is a good, probably effective ad.
ANDY...you HAVE to start pulling THE QUEEN's comments!!!! She's trying to manipulate people here on towleroad not to donate to California's Vote No on Prop 8 by creating doubt about whether or not our side of the marriage proposition is using donations wisely. She implies that money is not being spent on airtime for running the ads. And she says the messages are ineffective. She is far more dangerous than JASON...please pull her comments, Andy!!!!!!

peterparker dahling, you are just being ridiculous. that was no my intention at all. i was just making general observations. the conclusions you came to are entirely your own and wrong. oh well, it's andy's blog and he's entitled to do what he wants. good grief.

@THE QUEEN: well, bitch...you lost that one, didn't you! (Thanks Andy!)

NO ON 2 is right on the money. Now if they only talked about how an undecided voter FEELS about the number 2, FEELS about marriage, and FEELS (only after a comforting touch to the forearm) about using Helvetica in a campaign spot - maybe frickin' California NO ON 8 would use it - of course there'd be notes from the committee though...

Oh, P Diddy. I love that one.
:)

Not a big fan of Diddy but as bad as his rambling is he is on mark about 'that man'. It was a typical Rove tack, which is why the McShame is going to loose in November.
And Andy, the Coleman clip is why you are a must read every day. Good job sir.

Um, isn't The Queen entitled to her/his opinion if s/he feels that the money is not being used wisely or that the ads are not effective.
It's just an opinion, not hate speech, and doesn't deserve to be banned.
Perhaps PeterPorker deserves to be banned for preaching intolerance of others' views.

I've got just what Coleman's spokesmodel needs.

thanks longlive, i appreciate the support. i too was surprised to find myself being censored -- as you point out, my posts are not hate speech just opinions -- i just happen not always to toe the party line so to speak.

Excuse me, does anyone remember the Madonna tour(s) from the beginning of the 1990's (Gaultier costumes, pointy bra… brilliant at the time) I agree with Eric – stingy, cheap, no imagination and really, who cares, finally.
I would imagine that we have other things to think about at this moment (I hope that Madonna didn't have too much invested in anything other than her own "business").
