Rupert Everett, a British film actor, stunned fans when he referred to soldiers as wimps. In my book, unless youve taken a hard, hot one up your bum, youre a wimp, Everett insisted.
The flagrantly gay actor conceded that most people wouldnt see things his way. Ordinary men dont appreciate the risks we have to face on a routine basis, he complained. Whats getting your head blown off by a jihadi compared to a slow agonizing death from AIDS?
Everett also lamented the fact that while soldiers get medals, our courage goes unrecognized. There are G.I. Joes to glorify militarism, but there are no gay action figures. Its no wonder boys are growing up warped.
In related news, the Washington-based Human Rights Campaign (HRC), the nation's largest lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender (LGBT) lobbying group, expressed its opposition to a McCain presidency, alleging that the Arizona senator has not convinced us that he would take sufficient steps to protect our legal right to anal sex. HRC has endorsed Senator Barack Obama (D-Ill.), calling him a stalwart friend on this critical issue.

To be fair, this story aired several days ago, and the actor has since apologized for his remarks. Probably in an AP story, so I can’t post the excerpt, sorry!

He apologized? This bath-houser should be shot just to further remove him from the gene pool than he’s already chosen to be. Good Lord the insanity of some people will never cease to amaze me.

How’s this for an epitaph, pervert?
“I fought the Law of Nature and of Nature’s God, and the Law won.”

Courage would be forsaking fudge packing simply because it feels good to you Rupert!
