who is Palin's gay friend??
Edited on Wed Oct-01-08 08:05 AM by bcoylepa
and does she believe she had a choice???

just wondering??

Several news outlets have reported Palin's assertion that she "has gay friends." Finding these individuals has been difficult.

3. Isn't the old "some of my best friends are (fill in the blank)"

been a shield for bigotry, for as long as bigotry was no longer socially acceptable?

13. Yeah...but sometimes some of one's best friends are actually (fill in blank)
Edited on Wed Oct-01-08 08:49 AM by YOY
I've been told I was being anti-TG once by calling out a poster who claimed to be TG as full of shit. I wasn't attacking the person as a TG person...but as a liar. The thing is...my best friend at work ACTUALLY IS transgendered. I was called a bigot for pointing that out...

That poster is long gone...don't think she or he was actually TG nor anything more than a troll.


Bigots destroyed this statement by use and abuse...

I highly doubt Palin has any friends outside those in her church and political alliances.

17. Exactly!
By prefacing her bigoted statement with "I have a gay friend," I think Palin believes that her bigotry will somehow become more palatable.

10. Keep eyes on the ball...
:hi:

Part of me says this story is yet another distraction, but I'm hardly surprised Palin, as a fundie, would believe this.

31. Ok, let's explain "genderfuck" :)
it's a catty way we gayfolk refer to one another when being exceptionally sarcastic. No, it's not cool when straight people do it. It's not really cool when we do it. (It works like the n-bomb; we can, we shouldn't, you can't at all. Sorry!) As uncool as SP has been in the past, I could be willing to accept that she could think she's trying to be cool and "in" and she's totally - NOT.

Oh, just drawing in the air, ova heah :) Smile with me.

32. Pick me! Pick me!
GAWD, somebody needs to do something with that hair. Not that I know anything about doing hair. Well, I don't really -- well, not at all, but that's kinda the point. But certainly I'd be no worse that whatever's made a nest in it now, and it would be, mmm, so interesting to see what a nice shade of pistachio would do.
