Woof
I didn’t think anyone still used words like “dopey.” He is a fucking idiot.

I liked Dennis Miller more when he was a drunk.

That…makes me exceptionally sick…and omfg it wasn’t a ‘bomb’! I’m not a huge Potter fan, but most fans knew anyway or at least suspected, this was just confirmation for almost anyone who’d read into it…can I just say, show me the true fan who is offended :p
((On a side note, does Bill O Reilly notice a lot of his guests don’t agree with him on things..?))

I am astonished by all the ink and electrons being wasted on a non-issue about a non-person’s infatuation with another non-person in a fictional universe. Doesn’t the world have something better to get all upset about?

“No spin” guy is such a spinster. Perhaps she thought it important (her being a fiction writer and all) to give her fans more than a dull “yes or no” response as Bill ignorantly suggested. Even if the words” Dumbledore is gay were unnecessary as Bill seems to think, the point about him being with smitten with a former rival was integral to the answer, and as such would have implied sexual orientation anyway. I supposed if someone had just asked outright if the character was gay, Bill would not like a yes or no. And that gets to the bottom of it – she’s a “provocateur” in Bill’s eyes for even including a gay person in the story.

Bill O’Reilley is incredibly poorly informed, and contrary to what he says, I doubt he researched this topic at all.
A cursory reading of any newspaper article would have informed him that an audience member asked whether Dumbledore had ever found true love, and that J.K. Rowling’s answered appropriately by stating that Dumbledore was in love in Grindelwald.

………Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck. The list is endless, but let’s keep it a secret so as not to upset anyone. By the way, any word on Jesus? (So glad I live in Western Europe.)

Mr. B
A good number of Potter fans think (or would like to think) EVERYONE in those books is gay. I still don’t understand why this is such a big deal

Gay Agenda needs to be exposed.
I love how people on Queerty feel instantly threatened. They should, the agenda’s all about stealth.

Let’s face it, if this detail came out years ago, the book would not have been as successful.

“The agenda is all about stealth” says the fake journalist as he posts on a site that has QUEER in big fat letters up top.

Matt Sanchez, if you’re supposedly “not gay,” what in the world are you doing on a gay message board?
Still trolling the Internet to see if anyone is talking about you?
You remind me of the cop on the take who constantly hangs around with criminals.
