Wait, Larry Craig is gay?!

[Ishamael]

How can this guy be gay?! No way!

[SineSwiper]

Clear cut difference between the old deep-in-the-closet-and-married-with-three kids gays and the new oh-yeah-I-guess-it's-okay-to-come-out gays.

Like would be a helluva lot simpler if we just LEGALIZE it.

[Tessian]

Legalize what? I didn't know being gay or admitting to being gay was a crime...

Also that clip rocks.

[SineSwiper]

Gay marriage and gay acceptance in general. Gays wouldn't be "in the closet" if it was perfectly acceptable to be one.

[Tessian]

Right... but that's totally not what you said. "Legalizing It" won't make gays any more accepted... I find it kinda silly to imagine a law that says it's ok to be gay

[Nev]

Sodomy laws are still on the books in some states, which many gay men have seen as an illegalization of homosexual sex. And most states don't permit domestic unions between same-sex partners, which denies them a host of financial protections offered to married couples.

As far as Craig goes, does he not understand why no one's buying his message control? The scriptwriters for Will and Grace would have had a hard time coming up with "you've been a naughty, naughty boy, Mr. President".

a nasty bad naughty boy mr. president

[Zeus]

He's a politician, his entire life is based on appearing to be someone he's not. Makes perfect sense

[Ishamael]

He's a politician, his entire life is based on appearing to be someone he's not. Makes perfect sense

You're such a naughty boy, Zeus. A bad naughty boy.

[Chris]

You're such a naughty boy, Zeus. A bad naughty boy.

in fact I would go so far as to call him a nasty bad naughty boy

[Chris]

the best art really is Chris Matthews face after the clip....priceless

[Zeus]

You're such a naughty boy, Zeus. A bad naughty boy.

Keep that pillow talk for Lotus, man. My doggie door only swings towards my wife and other breastfully delightful humanoids

[Julius Seeker]

Shhhhh! Keep the levels of faggotry here at the Shrine down or you'll anger the State Gods whose words are eternal and punishment is brutal!

[Nev]

You're such a naughty boy, Zeus. A bad naughty boy.

Keep that pillow talk for Lotus, man. My doggie door only swings towards my wife and other breastfully delightful humanoids

...so Ish should be okay, then, after all?

...I mean, you did say "breastful", as well as "doggie door".

I actually noticed this. I was laughing about it with my girl after the second time we watched the clip. We paused it and just cracked up.
