Because one day you’ll be standing before Jeebus and have to account for your actions when he asks, “Why did you vote for a leader who’s attempting to redefine my institution of marriage?” And if your answer is “because that leader was good on jobs and the economy,” you are TOTALLY getting your ass sent to hell. Apparently Jeebus doesn’t …

In a suckily timed Election Eve ruling, late this afternoon the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals indefinitely extended their stay on the overturn of DADT. In an eight-page order, the judges said they were persuaded by the Department of Justice’s argument that U.S. District Court Judge Virginia Phillips’ worldwide injunction against the 1993 policy “will seriously disrupt ongoing and determined …

Sarah Palin is NOT happy about unsourced reports that the GOP leadership is working behind the scenes to make sure she doesn’t win the 2012 presidential nomination.

“Halloween is overwhelmingly an adult holiday. This year, for example, Americans spent an estimated $800 million on costumes for children, $1 billion on costumes for adults. Where did that adult dress-up party begin? As best we can tell: in San Francisco’s Castro neighborhood. In the 1970s, that neighborhood emerged as the heart of a new home-owning, bourgeois, coupled gay community. …

This is Morality In Media’s annual White Ribbon Against Pornography week and they would like you to start demanding that the police enforce all those laws about folks legally purchasing the legally-made smut featuring legally consenting adults. “The reason we have continued to promote the campaign is because people all across the country find it to be a convenient way …

Rent Is Too Damn High Party candidate Jimmy McMillan, whose now-famous rant at the New York gubernatorial debate landed him the highest honor for whackadoodles everywhere, an SNL Weekend Update parody, is releasing an album of original songs.

The last Pontiac was manufactured in August 2009, but it wasn’t until yesterday that the contract to sell the 84 year-old line expired at General Motors dealers nationwide. GM will honor Pontiac warranties and dealers will continue to service them, but as of today any unsold 2010 Pontiacs are considered used. The photo above is the 1973 Pontiac LeMans, my …

Alaska is really a mystery, what with Murkowski’s write-in campaign and the GOP backing away from its own nominee Joe Miller. Democrat Scott McAdams is only polling at 27%, but in a three-way …

Towleroad notes: “Charlie Crist’s choice of “Fabulous” Coach Lines to take his campaign around the state just seems damn appropriate.” Crist is trailing badly behind teabagger Marco Rubio and tongues are already wagging over how long it will be before his sham marriage unravels once he’s a private citizen again. Crist quickly married Halloween costume heiress Carole Rome in 2008 …

Newsy collates some thoughts about how, if at all, elected Tea Party candidates may be able to push their agenda within the GOP.

“When these pastors would complete their sermons, they would take off their black robes — they preached in vestments at those times – and underneath that would be the attire of military.
