 | 02:07 pm - a porn entry. everybody comment!
I just found out about this, and it's kinda funny. It's actuall from this time last September, but I'm not exactly up on my gay porn news.
'Top gymnast now gay porn bottom'
'That leads directly to this week's "Ask Billy" question. Roger in Houston writes: "I have a crush on a guy from SeanCody.com named William. Blond hair, great body, kinda geeky face, says he's into girls but is a total bottom. My bf says he was an Olympic athlete. Could you try and track him down?"
This meant sitting down and watching hours and hours of alleged straight guys having sex with each other. Now *I* feel like Anna Nicole! But I've tracked down your elusive blond. His real name is Steven Gaudette and he's a former gymnast. I don't think he ever made the Olympic team, but he was on the U.S. National Gymnastic Team from 1999-2003. And he's still flexible, if not versatile.
Interestingly enough, one of his colleagues back then was my bon ami Matt Abboud who went on to become a Playgirl cover model. Steven is reportedly doing some modeling despite his 5'7" frame - a size that could get him a job as a stunt double in the next "Mission: Impossible" flick!
From his interview at Sean Cody:
William is a young gay man who recently came out of the closet. He's single and has never had a boyfriend.
"How long have you been doing gymnastics?" I asked.
William: "Since I was 8."
"Have you ever been with a girl?" I smiled.
William: "Yuck. No."
"Have you ever been fucked?" I asked.
William: "Yeah."
On "BukBuddies", Steven is "Daniel", and on "CollegeBoys24/7", he is the alliterative "William West."
See him in action here:

| 02:20 am - Palin to stay away from the press indefinitely
According to the creepily-named Nicole Wallace, of the McCain campaign-
"The American people don't care whether Sarah Palin can answer specific questions about foreign and domestic policy. The American people will learn all they need to know (and all they deserve to know) from Palin's scripted speeches and choreographed appearances on the campaign trail and in campaign ads."
...And if today is any indication, she only has the one speech!
Newsweek contributor, Jonathan Alter, plots out how Palin's strategy will likely play out:
"McCain's Tricky Calculation"
I'd imagine that Palin will dodge press conferences in favor of interviews with people like Sean Hannity, Larry King and Ellen DeGeneres. Then, when the media complain that she is being kept away, the McCain campaign will cite the half dozen or so interviews she has granted as proof that the campaign press is just bellyaching.
That should get Palin through the next three weeks. By the end of the month, the McCain camp can say she has to go to ground to prepare for the Oct. 2 vice presidential debate, where expectations will be so low for Palin that she will likely emerge intact. It will be up to the press and public to raise enough of a stink about this, that Palin is forced to submit to real interviews with real questions that show whether her real-life experience is any preparation for assuming high office.
----------------
Does anyone else find this to be a shockingly hypocritical move, even from the always shocking and hypocritical McCain campaign?? They put up a woman, who they say is strong enough and experienced enough, then they keep her away from real journalists that would ask real questions. I only hope that they aren't allowed to get away with it.
We'll see. She's on Day 7.

This cockhole sent us all this thing to thank us for letting him run unopposed for the fourth time in a row.
In all honesty, as far as Democrats go, he's not completely hateable. I would give his voting record a B- or B.
But still, this is hubris in junk mail form. Ugh.

| 03:11 pm - the reviews are im on mccain's speech
"AP: McCain can't match week's best speeches"
"After back-to-back convention weeks with some soaring oratory and flawless television productions, John McCain's crowning night had neither."
Bush speechwriter, Michael Gerson, on MSNBC:
"Pretty disappointing. It didn't do a lot of outreach to moderates and independents on issues that they care about. It talked, about issues like drilling and school choice which was really speaking to the converted. I think that was a missed opportunity."
Right-wing website, The New Republic:
"It's not over yet but this is a very underwhelming speech. Familiar points explained in pedestrian terms. No overarching themes--right now it's sounding like a State of the Union laundry list. Even the crowd in the hall isn't jazzed. This is the sort of reception Tom Ridge got."
Right-leaning MSNBC contributor, David Gergen:
"It's hard to separate yourself out from President Bush when you essentially have the same economic policies as President Bush. I thought that the policy presentation was a little thin."
Right-wing analyst Jeff Toobin, on CNN:
"I thought it was the worst speech by a nominee that I've heard since Jimmy Carter in 1980. I thought it was disorganized, themeless, I thought it was very, very boring until the end when he started talking about his personal story, which is, of course, remarkable and always important to hear. I personally cannot remember a single policy proposal that he made because they had nothing connecting them. I found it shockingly bad."
Right-wing news site, The National Review:
"Ehhhhh...maybe I'm missing some grand strategy or tactics, but I think it was a missed opportunity."
Time magazine was nicer, but not by much:
"A mixed performance. The ending worked, though in the hall I doubt anyone could hear him very well as he spoke through the crowd's applause. ... He's struggling, as he sometimes does -- misplacing the emphasis on words, sounding at times like he's reading the speech for the first time, losing energy during the sections on issues he's never been particularly passionate about, burying applause lines in a string of sentences. It's as if he can't bring himself to pretend he's not reading a teleprompter -- that the charade distracts and frustrates him."
------
One final word, remember how Republicans dumped on "community organizers"? Giuliani even called it "the first problem on the resume." Palin said that community organizers had no actual responsibilities.
"WHAT A COMMUNITY ORGANIZER DOES" by JOE KLEIN
So here is what Giuliani and Palin didn't know: Obama was working for a group of churches that were concerned about their parishioners, many of whom had been laid off when the steel mills closed on the south side of Chicago. They hired Obama to help those stunned people recover and get the services they needed--job training, help with housing and so forth--from the local government. It was, dare I say it, the Lord's work--the sort of mission Jesus preached (as opposed to the war in Iraq, which Palin described as a "task from God.")
I'm watching Sarah Palin, live, introduce McCain. She's giving the exact speech that she gave on TV two nights ago, WORD FOR WORD. If this is all she has, all that McCain has, some bullshit about drilling off the coast of Florida, and the idea that Obama is and always will be just a pathetic "community organizer" (quelle horreur!), than they have no chance of winning in November.

 | 12:10 am - mac is black
Watched McCain's speech tonight. It was certainly very different from Obama's last week. Obama said it was never about him, that it was about us. Well, McCain said "Me, me, me." Every fucking sentence began "I fought...". I thought he got better toward the end. I've heard that same story about the "Hanoi Hilton" at least 100 times, but this recitation did seem special somehow. I also liked the ending part where he called people to government service, like Kennedy did 40 years ago. It wasn't original, but it was nice.
Overall, we can say now that the whole Republican convention felt so small and so petty compared to the Democratic one a week ago. In the wide shots, the seats looked empty. And we knew that John McCain could never capture the 84,000 crowd that Obama had, but the 100 people in the room just looked so bored while he rambled on about his first neighbours, the Druids.
Coming up on the agenda, when Congress gets back to work, Harry Reid intends to bring back The Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, and dare McCain to vote against it again, under the glare of the spotlight. The act mandates equal pay for women. McCain may have picked a woman as his V.P., but he still thinks they should make less than men for the same work.
On a personal note, I take a passionate and stentorian offense to the presence of Tom Ridge at the convention. That man is truly one of the most disgusting, helminthic human beings to ever crawl across this earth. As Governor of Pennsylvania, he signed over 220 death warrants, and that was in just 6 short years! That is over 60% of all executions carried out in the entire history of the state of Pennsylvania. That is literally one execution every 11 days! (I did the math.) Ridge is a war criminal. He is a monster. 224 fucking executions?! Tom Ridge is the worst serial killer in the history of this country. I hope one day that he realizes what he has done and he turns himself in to the Hague to face trial.

Here's the first part of Obama's appearance on O'Reilly. No idea when the rest is going to appear.
I'll probably be donating something in the next few days, and if you remotely care about the fate of this country, I'd encourage you to do the same. Then again, he's already outraised McCain ten to one since the Palin speech.
I'd fact-check all the speeches from tonight personally, but can't be arsed. I'm probably off to bed soon.
Expect less postings on the weekend, by the way. Can't spend all my time on these tubes as the semester progresses. Thankfully it's (hopefully) the last one.

 | 12:00 am - The worst case scenario
When I read most of the literature that discusses the Christian Right in the U.S. one thing I notice that they fail to mention is their relation to the elite, or the rest of the elite in some cases.
The real elite, in abstract, should be the "neo-conservatives/neo-liberals" or follow an imperialist agenda. Basically, these are the people in power and there goals are purely materialist-economic. However, these 2 factions cannot get elected (you just can't get support on an open platform of imperialism; however, there's been attempts to form a popular ideology for these neo-imperialists) unless they woo portions of the population. To do this they accept, or pretend to accept, policies and agenda of other factions. One major support base for the neo-conservatives and their middle east agenda is the Christian Right. As you can see, the neo-conservatives and the elite view the Christian Right as a "useful" tool to drum up support for their policies. However, currently (and this is what the literature misses), they're in a position similar to that of the Nazi party during the 30s.
One german politician once said "we hired Hitler!" In a sense, he was speaking for the ruling class. Most of them did not want fascism to be the "status quo" but did see it's usefullness for maintaining power (i.e. it kept some working class sections and most of the middle class preocupied).However, the tables turned and the once Nazi servents became the new Nazi masters; the rest is history.
One interesting thing mention by a book (I think "American Theocracy" by Kevin Phillips) mention how that by the 70s (or 60s) the Republican party was seen as an elitist party and one of big interests solely. During this period the Republican party began to do "political work" into/with churches, priests, etc. Thus, by making promises to the religious constituency, the Republican party was able to get elected. This came true during the 80s when Reagen got elected. Yet, the religious elements steady became intertwined with the Republican Party. While most of the party can be described as "neo-conservative" a large amount of candidates are more in tuned with the Christian Right,
The Republican primaries could have been seen as an example of what could come. One of the pre-candidates for the presidency in the Republican party was a preacher by the name of Huckabee. While he did lose, one wonders what would have happened if he won? Especially what would have happened if he won the presidency?
Let me posit a "worst case scenario"...
Imagine if the President and most of Congress are part of the Christian Right and they elect that the U.S. becomes some form of theocracy.
They could decide: 1) No science lessons on the origen of life or on evolution. Creationism will be norm. 2) Abstinance-only education 3) Abortion and Plan B illegalized (maybe even contraceptives!) 4) Homosexuality, Apostasy (Atheists and Agnostics), Paganism, Heresy, etc will be criminalized or taken to a new form of "reeducation camp" (i.e. a modern day inquisition). 5) More laws dictating public behavior 6) War on Syria so to sack Damascus and on Palestine so to complete the "prophecy" of the "2nd coming" (Might as well change the anthem to "Onward Christian Soldiers") 6) Possible increased anti-semetism or anti-semetic progroms 7) Christian Prayer in school and most/all government events; everyone should go to church, potential discremination of muslims 8) Possible other stuff that I've not mentioned.
However, I doubt (somewhat), that such a society could ever be sucessfully implemented without facing resistence. Such actions might even lead to Civil War...(The Seattle Commune versus most of America!).....but the 3rd Reich was in placed and it faced little organized resistence (except by elite members of government).

One of the most enduring taboos in American politics, the airing of graphic images from the September 11 attacks in a partisan context, died today. It was nearly seven years old.
The informal prohibition, which had been occasionally threatened by political ads in recent years, was pronounced dead at approximately 7:40 CST, when a video aired before delegates at the Republican National Convention included slow-motion footage of a plane striking the World Trade Center, the towers' subsequent collapse, and smoke emerging from the Pentagon.
The September 11 precedent was one of the few surviving campaign-season taboos. It is survived by direct comparisons of one's opponents to Hitler.
(Edit: Actually, the last sentence is completely wrong - I forgot how commonly Holocaust references are used nowadays. Commenter Vidiot put me right:( Read more... ) I, and the Boston Globe, stand corrected.)
also, Lynn Westmoreland (R-GA) openly calls Obama "uppity" and the McCain-Palin campaign is unable to find a single example of an Obama-Biden surrogate attacking Palin's family (note also that, contrary to the implication of the entry, Palin was a supporter of Pat Buchanan as recently as the 2000 election).

| 05:42 pm - Democrats respond to Palin's hate-speech
Today, the Democrats's responded to Palin's mud-slinging last night.
David Axelrod: "They're shedding an awfully lot of heat but no light. It almost defies the laws of physics."
Harry Reid: "Shrill and sarcastic political attacks may fire up the Republican base, but they don't change the fact that a McCain-Palin administration would mean four more years of failed Bush-Cheney policies."
Robert Gibbs: Palin ""picked up the worn-out playbook of Joe Lieberman.
David Plouffe: "We still haven't gotten a single idea during the entire Republican convention about the
economy and how to lift a middle class so harmed by the Bush-McCain policies."
Florida hero, Debbie Wasserman Schultz: Palin "had a real problem with the truth last night. Even her hometown newspaper said she stretched the truth."
(A reference to Thursday's Anchorage Daily News headline: "Some Of Palin's Remarks Stretch The Truth.")
Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius: "I live in the American heartland, and have been a governor [here] for six years. I don't know any mayor in any small town in Kansas -- and we have a lot of mayors of small towns -- who hires a lobbyist and goes after earmarks the way Sarah Palin did."
(On Tuesday, the Washington Post reported that, as mayor of Wasilla, Palin and her lobbyist secured more than $27 million in federal earmarks for a town with only 6,700 residents.)
On a humorous note, the Obama campaign is reporting that they've raisef $8 million dollars since Palin's speech.
And on a sad note: "Under Palin's tenure as Mayor, Wasila became Crystal Meth Capital of Alaska
Good job, Sarah. This definitely qualifies you to be President when McCain dies.

| 12:57 pm - Palin takes a big one
"Media swoon over Palin's fiery speech"
NBC political director Chuck Todd, weighing in shortly after Sarah Palin’s fiery speech before the Republican faithful, declared: “Conservatives have found their Obama.”
Right-wing radio host Laura Ingraham agreed, telling Fox’s Greta Van Susteren that it was the “night conservatives have been waiting for.”
Ingraham continued with high praise: “It’s one of the best political speeches I have heard — ever!"
Thematically, the three speeches leading up to Palin’s performance each took a page out of the McCain campaign playbook by attacking the media — a time-honored tradition on the right, and an aggressive strategy enacted over the previous 48 hours with strikes on leading newspapers and television networks, like The New York Times and CNN.
( read the rest )
Personally, I found a lot of what she said to be quite mean and unwarranted. She talks about being held to a higher standard, but what about the lower standard she is held to??? She is apparently allowed to say ridiculously untrue things about Obama, all the while totally ignoring the myriad of scandals around herself. Hillary never got away with that, nor would any male candidate get away with that. If Obama had her scandals, and had just given that speech, the pundits would cacaw that he didn't respond to the allegations against him. The speech would be declared a total failure. But Palin gets a pass. The media doesn't hate her; they love her!
--andrew
UPDATE: "In a solo appearance today, Palin slimed Obama again"
I'll skip the flat-out racist stuff that she said and cut to the red meat- ""The Obama-Biden Democrats have been vicious in their attacks directed toward me, my family and John McCain. The misinformation and flat-out lies must be corrected."
I agree. She should answer the questions that have been raised about her background and her ethics. But did she? Of course not. 'She did not take questions from reporters.'
And her family? "My family looks forward to this, we're up for it, we're excited about it." So don't say that "The Media" brought up her family.
