It may not be completely transparent in la la land ( i.e. daily caller, breitbart, drudge) but Camille Paglia is known as perhaps the doyenne of pop psychology, and thus not someone to take seriously. In layman's speach, nogaf what she thinks because it isn't credible nor academic. She also voted for Nader, if that matters to anyone here.
Thanks for taking time out of your busy schedule of pming he needs more time to tell him to stop saying certain things on the board to complain about freedom of speech.
It is fucking freedom of speech, he can say whatever the fuck he wants. He knows the "consequences" in what he says. If this was a couple of fags talking about how the Bible is fake and Religion is a joke (I don't disagree with this) it wouldn't be an issue at all.
"Phil and his family claim to be Christian, but Phil's lies about an entire community fly in the face of what true Christians believe," GLAAD spokesperson Wilson Cruz said. "He clearly knows nothing about gay people or the majority of Louisianans -- and Americans -- who support legal recognition for loving and committed gay and lesbian couples. Phil's decision to push vile and extreme stereotypes is a stain on A&E and his sponsors, who now need to re-examine their ties to someone with such public disdain for LGBT people and families."
The Human Rights Campaign also slammed Robertson for his statements.
"Phil Robertson's remarks are not consistent with the values of our faith communities or the scientific findings of leading medical organizations," president Chad Griffin said in a statement. "We know that being gay is not a choice someone makes, and that to suggest otherwise can be incredibly harmful. We also know that Americans of faith follow the Golden Rule -- treating others with the respect and dignity you'd wish to be treated with. As a role model on a show that attracts millions of viewers, Phil Robertson has a responsibility to set a positive example for young Americans -- not shame and ridicule them because of who they are. The A+E Network should take immediate action to condemn Phil Robertson's remarks and make clear they don't support his views."

How drole.
I wonder why the network ignored the Bidding Wars: New York comments by the 2 gay partners on that show.
