Lincoln was NOT guy, but he was a continental.

Isn't it a little late to be posting articles with sentences longer than, say, 50 or 100 characters?

The article is unreadable stream of consciousness.

I maintain that labels only reduce people to sub-human status. The hypostasization of the erotic, enervates the personal.

Post modernisism is for the suckiest bunch of sucks that ever sucked. The human experience (as it relates to our co-dependency on a societal structure) has now been ruduced to nothing more than a storage bin of impulses and feelings, and never a care nor sacrifice is made except to keep all of our feelings from becoming tangled with one anothers. A clinical attempt to sterilize the human existence and to protect each other from the responsibility of one another.


We are a sick world. It is now normal for a fellow that practices homosexual sex to not only find no fault with but to actually be honored to be known as a "homosexual". As if all that he is and all that is substance to his human identity can only be opened through the prism and index of a sexual behavior.


At that point we have failed to "tolerate" the thousands of other traits that make us human and a person.

We have found the enemy,................and it is us,..........or we,..........or is it them?


CYB

Perhaps the most poorly written and "reasoned" article I've ever read.

Using his five "tests," most men would be gay.

I've now got doubts about myself...

Y'all will have to excuse me, I've got to go find a closet.

OK, now I have officially seen EVERYTHING. My head hurts. I am going to bed.

When I was a young teenager, the word "gay" did not exist. We all used the word, "queer", but we had no idea what it really meant. I know most readers will find that strange, but seriously, homosexuality was not discussed, period. I went to a Catholic High School. The very pretty young girls in their plaid skirts made me straight as an arrow (no pun intended...).

Actually, there's more... much more...

Abe Lincoln was not only gay, he was also heterosexual, which is even worse than gay.

Abe Lincoln regularly beat baby seals to death with their own shoes.

Abe Lincoln would regularly pull sapling white pines out by the root as he feared their presence.

Abe Lincoln compared his skin color with others by (some say uncomfortably) glancing at the "backs of hands". If the color was not identical, he would declare, "Well that's nice" a tip phrase to his secret service to make that guy disappear.

Abe Lincoln hated vegtables.

Abe Lincoln would buy expensive pieces of art for the white house so he could burn them before retiring for the evening.

Abe Lincoln was secretly in love with Marx.

...since we're rewriting history

Thank you. I hate to bring this stuff up but homosexuality is one of those emotional issues that drive people from rational thought as if some primal force is in play. No matter how reasoned one is they are often called bigoted and slandered as being gay themselves. Conservatives need not hide and wave their bibles to ward off this political and social disease. The information is there to combat it and reasonable people should not bow down to the lies and foolishness of a small activist community who make their choice of sexual behavior a political banner as they lead the charge from hollywood to your living room selling a very onesided and misleading picture of a subculture that is far from benign.

They have already done that. There is a play called "Corpus Cristi" which depicts the Christ as a homosexual. There is no shame among the Left.

Your tag line is excellent. Except, I would argue the blue cities are nothing more than liberal plantations.

Was Hitler gay?

Probably not, but he was almost certainly quite twisted. He had a sexual relationship with his own niece, who apparently killed herself out of disgust with the practices she was participating in.

Not to go into excessive detail, but he was apparently masochistic and fascinated with feces.

Men like to spend time with other men, and ditto for women. It is crazy to try to tun this into homosexuality

Uh, sounds pretty gay to me, dude. You got something to tell the group?

/It's a joke, son.

The entire Union Army was gay since they came from the cold North where spooning to keep warm was commonplace. And the Southerners? How do you think the "Rebel Yell" was born?
