Pretty much. Although there is a distinction between opposing a same sex marriage bill because it would be “too divisive” and claiming to oppose same sex marriage itself, it is a very small distinction.

The GOP is paying tons of social media commenters to influence online opinion. They are all over FB and smother every NYT post etc with anti Clinton tirades. I’m sure there are many here too.

“Obtaining Congressman Bernie Sanders’ position on the gay marriage issue was like pulling teeth...from a rhinoceros. Last month, shortly after the decision of the Amestoy Court was issued, Mr. Sanders publicly tried walking the tightrope — applauding the court’s decision and the cause of equal rights without…

You mean when she was 15? So he wrote this because he was into state’s rights. As someone else pointed out, he was affirmatively against marriage as anything other than between a man and woman in the 80s https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8FLYb…
he wasn’t for civil unions in 2000:http://www.sevendaysvt.com/vermont/fugged…

I don’t think she does lol, no worries.

He was against it in his own state.

what ever it is, free Richard Simmons.

You’re wrong. He actively opposed same sex marriage, and even signed a resolution in Vermont seeking to “restore” marriage to what it “used to be.”

Okay. This guy is saying that Simmons’ maid is an evil witch holding him hostage in his house. Or Simmons has suffered from some breakdown and is cutting off contact from friends and family. Whatever is going on it doesn’t sound good. I hope he is okay and that he is just taking a break.

This Daily News piece was disturbing and sad :(. I had no idea Simmons had such a rough childhood and it’s so admirable how he devoted his life to helping others. I don’t buy the black magic thing, but as I was reading the mental illness angle stood out to me far more than any situation of being held hostage,…

He was AGAINST same sex marriage in VT in 2006. He said the state wasn’t ready for it and it wasn’t a big deal.
HRC is the only candidate who addresses HIV issues in her policy platform. But, I guess, since Sanders was (maybe) 2 yrs ahead of her on the gay marriage issues, LGBT issues are done for him. He’s good to go…

Didn’t just say it was for the states to decide in 2006, actually said VT wasn’t ready for it.

You’re an idiot.

And I do have to admit, I definitely thought about everyone on Jezebel, myself included, and how we can sometimes get carried away in expecting perfection from women. It was a nice little reminder to maybe go a little easy on the small stuff next time.

A tough and tricky landmine of a song!

Gawker Media Staff Directive:

I mean, it was at a woman’s funeral. People say nice things about people at their funerals, even if they’re not 100% true. It’s not like anybody called out Michael Jackson as a child molester at his funeral...

Jesus, she apologies twice and it’s still not good enough. Her apology - if people bother to read it and some some cliff notes on Jezebel - was sobering and well done. I guess they want Hillary to spit on the Reagan’s graves as well. Gawker keep gawkin’.

Yet another chapter of Satan vs Santa Claus.

God I love this. Especially at the end when they know people are still going to tell them they are wrong.
