Ouch: Romney Defunded Commission to fight LGBT Bullying as Massachusetts Governor -- (link) - MDH May 11, 07:23 25
- How does vetoing a $100,000 increase equal "defunding"? -- nm - Ender May 11, 07:37 5
  - because he later would disband it entirely -- nm - znufrii May 11, 07:42 4
    - After they went beyond their mandate for something that they knew would infuriate the governor. - spamlet May 11, 07:48 2
      - [deleted]
      - "(Romney) had issued official statements in 2003 and 2004 praising a similar gay youth pride day and parade." - znufrii May 11, 07:52
    - (it's a poor choice of excerpt from the source article) -- nm - znufrii May 11, 07:44
- it's a little more complicated than that, but still not pretty -- (link) - znufrii May 11, 07:30 18
  - [deleted] 17
    - "Well, he framed me for armed robbery, but man, I'm aching for that upper-class tax cut." -- nm - Roger More May 11, 07:45
    - This blip on the radar is nothing. This election will be about the economy, the economy, the economy. -- nm - Bacon May 11, 07:43 13
      - doesn't mean it shouldn't be talked about. -- nm - znufrii May 11, 08:03 1
        
        Uh, in his mind it does. -- nm - Iron Spawn May 11, 08:35
      - That is certainly what the GOP establishment wishes. Keep wishing. -- nm - con_carne May 11, 07:52 4
        
        Haha, if you don't think the economy will be the main issue you are out of touch. - Bacon May 11, 07:57 3
        
        I would also point out that SSM is an issue for people who are looking for ways Obama and Romney are different. Because let's face it: - con_carne May 11, 08:03
        
        Oh Redmond, quit making me laugh. -- nm - MDH May 11, 08:03
        
        That is not what I'm saying. I agree that this election will be about kitchen table issues, but guess what: SSM has become one of those issues. -- nm - con_carne May 11, 07:59
      - [deleted]
      - I think all the little things to dislike about Romney will add up and have an effect, if only on turnout. -- nm - mara May 11, 07:50 4

        I hate oil companies as much as insurance companies -- nm - Epiphany May 11, 08:14
    - I don't pretend to understand it either. - znufrii May 11, 07:41 1
      - GOProud are very very self loathing. -- nm - MDH May 11, 07:43
Oh bumholes, nearly got invited to a cast & crew screening of a certain sci-fi flick coming up, but I can't make it as I'll be in NY. -- nm - LMS May 11, 07:15 1

  - [deleted] 3

    - That's the highlight for me; it's a pitcher complaining about not enough off days. - Will Hunting May 11, 07:05 8
      - The "18 days off" thing is just BS on it's face. - TFox May 11, 07:08 6
        
        I should ignore this story and not search out the quotes, right? -- nm - Mel Profit May 11, 07:15 5
        
        Beaker posted this, but we know and respect Gordon Edes well enough, right? Pretty level headed dude generally? -- (link) - TFox May 11, 07:20 1
        
        Being yelled at by Gorden Edes is so unexpected it's like being cussed out by Mr. Rogers. - Mel Profit May 11, 07:30

        it's so heteronormative of him. -- nm - TFox May 11, 07:05
        
        wait, you think Doug's *really* the head of HR? - znufrii May 11, 06:52 2
