During the 5:30 half-hour I’ll be doing a wrap-up of last night’s Red Clay School Board meeting. Let’s just say I’m glad I showed up. Kilroy from Kilroy’s Delaware will be joining me to discuss some of the issues facing the school district.
Other topics:
- The gays are starting to lose my support. Prop 8 hate? I’m there! But why do they feel the need to infringe on eHarmony’s right to run its business as it sees fit? And why are they suddenly embracing segregation?
- Neo-con Bill Kristol and drunk Pete Hamill get into it!
- Fat sons of bitches need to lose weight. End of story. Present company included.
- The CIA angers me so with their continued obfuscations. Where is the fucking oversight?!?
- New Guns N Roses? No fucking way. Stream the shiteous new album via MySpace.
- This auto-bailout shit is making me sick. If we bail them out, can I at least get a ride on one of the CEO’s private jets?
- More? Who knows?

Nice show Mike. I heard most of it. But geez don’t blame the Mormons for all of it w/ Prop 8. The Catholics and other asundry folks showed up also. You are attributing too much power to one group–hence fracturing any path forward in this mess. This is not just a “religious” issue to be demonized. Where was the outrage when Hawaii was positioning for this about 3-5 years ago? And now we have Arizona, and other states saying “no” also.
And about e-Harmony…you’re right. Furthermore, I was under the impression e-Harmony, and Match.com can “reject” you on the basis of no match because they have that much faith in their service, and don’t want to lose credibility by just spitting out random names/introductions. Why couldn’t it be left at “we don’t have anyone compatible for you based on your criteria”? Just like they would if you were an ultra neat freak or something? I did think Malkins analogies were good this time. And for the airline ruling–if they say one seat per person, no matter what size, what if you’re pregnant? Is that a person? And what are we to do if larger Canada happens to be more represented on a flight, necessitating 5 extra seats say? Who gets bumped first? Maybe it’s coming time for your airline ticket price to coincide with your weight. Either that or change airline seats to couches, and you just keep moving over. And finally Kilroy. A fellow after my own heart with all the education stuff. Good for him. Keep doggin’ ‘em! Just my rant now. Thanks!!

A-HA! But until that “unborn clump of cells” comes out of the womb, it is NOT a “person.” Or so we’re told by innumerable liberals. So I don’t wanna hear the complaints of some impregnated female about getting two seats on a plane because she CHOSE to get impregnated.
Joanne Christian, you are a freaking goddess! Thanks for having a great sense of humor!
BTW, I forgot to add a
at the end of my last rant…
Wow-I just might stick around now. And don’t worry about turning into a Libertarian, it’s all about “evolution”.
I have no problem with eHarmony not helping gays and lesbians – their service is a matching service and it just isn’t set-up for it – WHO CARES – go to match.com instead.
Sometimes my brothers and sisters go a bit too far even for me. Do I think that eHarmony could at least put some effort into changing their policies – yes, but if they don’t, there is nothing I can do. It’s an AT WILL service anyway, they can serve you if they feel like it or not if they don’t – so all they have to do is say that they can’t find a match for you and not give you a reason – there is no law preventing them from doing that.
Why would any self-respecting gay or lesbian person even want to buy into a service that doesn’t want them? I’d rather give my money to businesses that want to cater to me and my family to being with, rather then one that caters to me because a lawsuit was filed against it.
Suzanne–Welcome to my “take your lumps club”.
Hmm..is that good or bad? Do I have to curtsy and say Thank you?
Oh yeah – and Mike- if we (you know, the larger we of all gays and lesbains and bisexuals and transgenders and gender queers and and and ..can’t keep up with all those words anymore) lose your support then — hmm..then — hmm…damn..can’t think of anything right now…wait..i have one….THEN WE WILL PULL YOUR PANTS DOWN AND SPANK YOU..
no wait, you might like that. . .
