I Didn't Say It ...


Chasten Buttigieg, Pete’s husband, on Melanie _____’s RNC speech:

“When you have that platform and you are still outwardly racist and xenophobic, and you cheerlead policies and decisions that hurt other Americans, I think it is worth paying attention to. You’re the president’s No. 1. You’re there at the end of the day. You can encourage, cheerlead, and you can also guide … As their partner, you have an opportunity and responsibility to speak up. It was particularly confusing when Melania was talking about this vision of America that is against bullying and people coming together. I was like, ‘What are you talking about? You’re cheerleading one of most destructive, openly hateful presidents in American history.’ I was excited at the opportunity of being [First Gentleman] because it felt like I could be a beacon of hope, to do good things with that office, and restore dignity and respect to that institution. That office also comes with a weight and responsibility, and I think Jill Biden will do an extraordinarily good job of cleaning up shop.”

After Melanie, Jill Biden will be a remarkable First Lady because there’s heart and soul and compassion and empathy and intelligence there.
But Chasten would have been a good First gentleman, too.
Barry Moore, GOP nominee in Alabama’s 2nd Congressional District race, calling the arrest of the white terrorist who shot protestors in Kenosha “tragic”:

“It’s just indicative of what we’re seeing in the nation. You say defund the police, we’ll police ourselves. And when people and communities start trying to protect their property, their life and their liberty, and when they fire back, then all of the sudden they’re villainized.”

So, you confused fuckmonkey, how did this terrorist police himself when he armed himself and drove across state lines to kill people for sport. He’s a murderer and you condone it.
Sidenote: in 2014 police arrested Moore on multiple felony charges involving perjury and making false statements as part of an ongoing investigation into public corruption in Alabama, so, yeah, he’s one to talk. That’s his mug shot.
Ted Wheeler, mayor of Portland, Oregon, blasting _____ after a caravan of _____ supporters descended on the city to incite violence amid Black Lives Matter protests:

“Do you seriously wonder, Mr. President, why this is the first time in decades that America has seen this level of violence? It’s you who have created the hate and the division. It’s you who have not found a way to say the names of Black people killed by police officers even as people in law enforcement have. And it’s you who claimed that White supremacists are good people. Your campaign of fear is as anti-democratic as anything you’ve done to create hate and vitriol in our beautiful country.”
He accepts no responsibility for the ills of America, even after saying, ”I, alone, can fix it.” Everything is either the last president’s fault …or the next president’s fault.
Sharon Stone, blasted “non-mask wearers” and _____ after her sister, who has lupus, and her brother-in-law are hospitalized in Montana for COVID-19:

“My sister Kelly, who already has lupus, now has COVID-19 … One of you Non-Mask wearers did this ... Wear a mask! For yourself and others. Please. I want to talk to you about compassionate integrity versus politics and greed. The nurses in the hospital that are taking care of them … can’t get tested because they don’t have tests to test them with. Those nurses are risking their lives and can’t get tested … When they say there are tests for everyone, they are LYING. When they say there are tests even for the nurses in the hospitals, they are LYING. People are dying and fighting for their lives because there is nothing but lies. And because the people at the governor’s houses, the people at health departments are simply so overwhelmed, they’re not answering the phones. They are hanging up. Not returning calls. This is the state that we’re in. The ONLY thing that’s going to change this is if you VOTE. And if you vote for Biden. And if you vote for Kamala Harris. And the reason that’s going to happen is because with women in power we will fight for our families. We will fight for people to live. And we will fight for people to get tested. Because the only countries that are doing well with COVID are the ones that have women in leadership. Please vote. And please, whatever you do, don’t vote for a killer.”

Don’t.Vote.For.A.Killer.
Rick Snyder, former GOP governor of Michigan endorsing Joe Biden for President:

“For years, I mentioned in most of my speeches the need to bring back civility to our nation. We will not continue to be the greatest nation in the world if we can’t get along among ourselves. We have only become more divided over the past four years. We need a leader who believes in civility and bringing Americans closer together.  While I am endorsing Joe Biden for president, I am still a Republican who also will be publicly supporting Republican candidates at the local, state and federal level.”

Personally, since many I the GOP will goose-step along with ______, Snyder’s decision to vote GOP down ballot is maddening. This party must be ended, and then, like the police, defunded and reformed into something less divisive and hate filled.
Darin Zanyar, Swedish pop singer-songwriter, coming out as gay:

“Everyone in the world should be able to be proud and accepted for who they are. I know how difficult it can be. Took me a while, but I am proud to be gay. Happy pride!”

Welcome out Darin. And please accept as out gift, from HOMO HQ, a copy of the Gay Agenda, and a $25 IKEA gift card.
Welcome out.

  2. Eugene Robinson said on Morning Joe this am; “we all know that he [Trumpelstiltskin] has a black hole where his soul should be” which I thought very apt

    PS I got a Covid-19 test done this morning cos I'm hopefully having day surgery on Monday (if I don't prove positive). Don't let anyone tell you having a twig stuck up your nose is pain free!

  3. People can say what they want about Sharon Stone...but I have always adored her. She's a strong woman and sticks to her convictions and beliefs and has no problems telling people to go fuck off!!!!

    But lesbie honesty...Chasten stole this whole post. He surely would have been a great First Gentleman. It still in some ways depresses me Mayor Pete didn't make it. But he aint out either!!!!! He will be back ......

  4. Miss Piggy would make a better First Lady! Shoot, Kermit would be a better President.
    Does Ikea sell toaster ovens?

  5. What the hell can you buy for a mere $25 at IKEA? Is HOMO HQ run by cheap bastards these days?

  6. @TDM
    Darin is Swedish so I thought he might prefer IKEA. The Coming Out Toaster Oven™ is still in stock!

    @He;en
    Sending good thoughts that all goes well!!

    @MM
    I have ALWAYS loved Sharon.
    And I would have loved Chasten as First Gentleman ... perhaps in eight years???

    @Deedles
    I
    d make a better First Lady ... and see response to TDM re" Toaster Oven.

    @Debra
    Having never been to IKEA perhaps I underestimated the gift card. I've fired off emails to HOMO HQ honchos to see if we can scrape up some more coins for Darin!

    @AM
    Yes!

  7. What? Where’s my IKEA card? I can go with Darin. I volunteer as pledge!
    And Sharon is oh so right, though. The trumpanzees are voting for a killer and they don’t care. So little empathy. Just like Cheeto.
    And I hope Chasten and Pete make it to Biden’s cabinet. It would be so fantastic to have. First gentleman in eight or twelve years....
    As for Snyder should be the first of many repugs who gain sanity. Fingers crossed.

    XoXo

  8. There are so many Republicans flipping for Biden. I've never seen anything like this... ever.

    My money says Morse is KKK

    How come Darin gets a gift card to IKEA? All I got was a toaster oven.

  9. I'm so glad "Welcome Out Bob" has updated the gifts to "The Gay Agenda" and an IKEA gift card. I wonder how many are redeemed for toaster ovens.

    You just want Darin, not the card!

    @Dave
    Too bad MOST are not currently in office, but still, it's amazing to see.

    @Mitchell
    The Toaster Oven is still in play, we just made a different arrangement for Darin!
