Limbaugh On Miley Cyrus

“Would these erudite, elite women be as upset if Miley Cyrus had twerked with another woman instead of Robin Thicke? It would not be an issue.

Highest Paid Celebrities Of 2013

From the annual ranking just issued by Forbes: Madonna‘s latest album, MDNA, was a flop.

Porno Pete: Drudge Should Come Out

Conversation’s over! Got a little too close to the ongoing cover that right wingers give homocon Matt Drudge! Still, that’s the first time I’ve gotten a prominent anti-gay activist to even grudgingly concede that Drudge should come out if he’s gay. I’ve saved the above conversation to Storify just in case it should come in handy later. RELATED: Here’s the …

RNC Speaker Slams Gays & Immigrants For Pushing Poor Black People Aside

“I really think that the civil rights movement in it’s effort to expand has excluded some of the people that it originally designed to help and that’s low income people of all races. I didn’t hear poor people mentioned at all very much [on Saturday]. It was the environmentalists, women, gays, and immigrants. Everybody except poor people. The next frontier …
