The Chronicle reports: Ron Vara has strong opinions. He thinks you’ve “got to be nuts to eat Chinese food.” He doles out little scraps of wisdom, like “Don’t play checkers in a chess world.” Vara is a military veteran and Harvard-trained economist who made seven figures in the stock market by investing in companies that do well during international crises. …

Considering what’s happened to so far today, THIS should be entertaining. The Associated Press reports: Mike Rogers, the director of the National Security Agency, is denying that the British intelligence community was ever asked to conduct electronic surveillance on President Donald Trump at the behest of former President Barack Obama.

As the Liberty Counsel’s web of lies spectacularly implodes this morning, props are being given to Esquire writer Charles Pierce, who yesterday speculated that enemies of Pope Francis conspired to insert Kim Davis into a receiving line of others scheduled to meet him.

“We have no reason to puff the Kim Davis story. Her name has become known around the world. The people in Peru were very much aware of Kim Davis because her story was broadcast on a variety of media. However, the photograph was an honest mistake. Make no mistake, however, that there is widespread support for Kim Davis. Last week …

Over the weekend Liberty Counsel head Mat Staver wowed the assembled crackpots at Duggar Fest with a photo which he claimed shows 100,000 Peruvians gathered in a Lima soccer stadium to pray for Kim Davis.

This weekend at the Values Voter Summit, Liberty Counsel head Mat Staver told the assembled crackpots that 100,000 Peruvians gathered in a Lima stadium to pray for Kim Davis.

“NOM vigorously denies that it violated any disclosure laws during the 2009 campaign opposing same-sex marriage. We worked with legal counsel to understand the law, and we followed that advice. The Commission staff has drawn improper inferences from the circumstances of the campaign environment that they wrongly interpret as meaning that if someone gave to NOM somehow they designated their …

He has denied it for years, but today the truth came out. Via the New York Times: Files released by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Milwaukee on Monday revealed that in 2007, the diocese’s archbishop at the time, Cardinal Timothy M. Dolan, requested permission from the Vatican to move nearly $57 million into a cemetery trust fund in order to …

NOM has been busted in one of their most stupid lies yet – and that’s really really saying something. From the Chicago Tribune: The Chicago Bears and former linebacker Brian Urlacher denied any involvement Wednesday with the Ruth Institute — an affiliate of the National Organization For Marriage, which opposes same-sex marriage — after an online promotion for the institute …

The shit is really hitting the fan for Tucker Carlson’s wingnut Daily Caller and its months-long campaign to bring down Sen. Robert Menendez (D-NJ).  The Daily Caller writer who launched the story and followed up with daily outraged updates is Matthew Boyle, who recently jumped ship for Breitbart.   Boyle and I have occasionally exchanged tweets on various subjects, but after …

Arizona Attorney General Tom Horne, one of the state’s most vocal opponents of same-sex partner rights, has been exposed (by the FBI, no less) as an adulterer.

Send me a photo of your desk right now and I’ll believe you. I’ll wait. Hello? Don’t you fucking hang up on me! Hello?”

“I am not aware of anything from our broadcast that was inaccurate. Nothing in the transcript you sent is wrong or false. We may disagree on what constitutes ‘leading,’ but neither David or I said the ACP was the largest. As often happens, the larger associations become either stagnant or politically correct and lose the leadership qualities that make an …

If you’re going to lie about having been a war hero and Navy SEAL, you totally shouldn’t use the plot of Steven Seagal’s Under Siege to tell your story. PennLive has the humiliated confession of Rev. Jim Moats.

Google has busted Microsoft’s Bing for stealing search engine results. Google first suspected foul play in May 2010. By October 2010, with Bing results beginning to look uncannily like Google’s, it knew something had to be done about it — and so, in true, nerdtastic style, Google set up a sting to prove that Microsoft was actually behind the wholesale …

Since the ho is out of the barn, the Miami New Times has released their photo of NARTH/FRC fuckweasel Dr. George Mekers at MIA with his hired male prostitute, the barely legal twink Geo. The New Times properly notes that Geo doesn’t seem to be fulfilling his duties as Rekers’ paid luggage lifter. CAPTION THIS PHOTO.

Happy Happy Joy Joy! Notorious NARTH member and vigorous gay adoption opponent Dr. George Rekers was caught by the Miami New Times as he returned from a ten-day vacation with a young male prostitute that he hired on Rentboy.com.

Mike Huckabee says that his words were “grossly distorted” when he was recently quoted comparing gay marriage to incest, drug abuse, and polygamy. The young college student hopefully will find a career other than journalism. I would ask that he release the unedited tape of our conversation. I believe that what people do as individuals in their private lives is …
