Next, Simon will be praising Romney's chest ("Comely, dreamy, hairy chest... yummy!). It's hard to tell who wrote that piece: A middle aged journalist, or a teenage girl with a crush. Do conservatives have secret man crushes on their male leaders? I bet they do. Yet another man crush from a supporter of the homophobic party and its candidates.

I bet they do.

These people, all of them, speaking with rapid, shallow breath how very "manly" this or that GOPer candidate is...I KNOW they are all sporting woodies as they go on. I want all these clowns to be put on TV sans jacket and tie, just t-shirt and slacks, standing in profile while they get all gushy over manly body parts of the various GOPer candidates. I want their pup tents to be caught on film for all the world to see so we can finally get documented confirmation that the entire GOP is really just a homoerotic party of in-the-closets. They NEED to be encouraged to come out. Their sexual frustration and suppression is leading us into entirely unnecessary wars. Once they come out, voluntarily or by force, then they will be able to relax, accept their gay-ness, and we can have some peace and reason in government (and media) again. Jesus!

Yo Sven,

You want substance? Go to a thread that STARTS with substance. A comments section regarding Simon gushing over Romney’s dreaminess isn’t going to attract anything but snark.

Is substance discussed after any of the so-called debates? No, everyone discusses the trivial, things like "performance" and how people "come off." We are daily betrayed by these jerks who treat presidential candidates as if they're Paris Hilton: with breezy contempt or gaga celebrity worship.
