DADT Survey Gives Has MSNBC Going All Gay All The Time: Matthews, Maddow, Olbermann Dive In
Last night on Hardball, the Log Cabin Republicans’ R. Clarke Cooper called on Sen. John McCain, in light of the Pentagon’s survey results, to drop his opposition to repealing Don’t Ask Don’t Tell. Neato! Rachel Maddow, flashing a giant green light, also gave McCain and fellow Republicans — and all senators, really — the chance to come around.
But he of course won’t do that, explains Dan Savage on Countdown, because McCain is a bigot, which is the most honest and concise assessment of a sitting U.S. senator I’ve ever heard. “There’s really no other explanation for his back flips and his hypocrisy than just irrational animus, which is the definition of bigotry.”
@Mike in Asheville: This is, unfortunately, very typical of Queerty.

Has anyone anywhere bothered to ask if the survey asked gay military personnel what the fuck they think of heterosexuals? This is so blatently discriminatory to talk and behave from the premise that a survey asking straight people if they can handle being around gay people is at all valid in any way. Fuck them. They are bigot shitheads and i want to know when my taxdollars are going to fund a survey where gay people get to approve or disapprove of straight people?

@Jeff: I disagree with you. I cannot stand seeing Michael Signorile in a tie when he is on CNN. He looks like an out of place Popeye trying to fit in with people nothing like him. Please. Don’t ask gay people to blend anymore than what is already expected. It is hard enough and i highly value individuality. Dan Savage looks great. It is the content of his speech more than the dressing. George Bush wore a tie and expensive shoes. He is a moron.

The Survey is in and it is indisputable. Senators voting against Repeal vote Against the Will of the American People. The Bigots will be Revealed.
Senatorial voting records during the original Civil Rights Movement might have been obscured or unpublicized, but the Votes of Today’s Senators will be Front Page News! , and we must remind them of this!
