I just wasn't sure if you were at him for not being upfront with bigots that, you know, I'm one of those people you despise v. what you say above.
That wasn't what I was thinking, but yeah, that's a good point too.
Yeah. He's my hero.

Has Heroes been officially canceled yet? 'Cause I'm itching to propose some more thread closings.
I t heart Tom Scola.
Also, the whole thing about do you do what you think is morally right vs. what you have been elected to do is an old conflict that got the better of people like Jeannette Rankin and Robert Taft. It's an interesting debate.
But I think the man is a tool because who you are is who you are and to be closeted because it will get you elected seems as duplicitous as being gay and voting against Each Piece of Gay Legislation.
Also, it just sounds like he's a selfhating prick.

Someone on my facebook is burbleing about Rahm Immanuel poking our local representative in the ribs in the shower? Has anyone heard about this?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Was it a fun shower? Or did your rep piss Rahm off?
Watched "Doomed" in class on Friday and finished it up today. Now my students are talking about wanting to have an after school Buffy club so they can see all the episodes. I love my job.

The whole Massa thing is confusing, Sophia. It sounds like your Facebook friend is conflating several different stories about him.
Isn't Louise Slaughter your representative, though?

Does Eric Massa watch Battlestar Galactica?
All I know is that around here the Democrats who seem to be supporting Massa are full of invective about Obama and Emmanuel for "running him out". They also seem to watch to poke Rahm Emmanuel in the ribs in the shower????

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
I know aasloads of women who would start giggling like Beavis at the thought of Rahm, showers, and, um, poking.(Way too many of my online girls who are not Buffistas think it's cute to list their online name as say, Whimsy McDumshit-Emmanuel...which fandom can I blame for this and can I send it back there?)
