[Gay State Conservative]

Surprising.He’s the last one earth I’d expect to support (or even to tolerate) the new law.

[Le Chien Rouge]

Sir Elton knows that Conservatives buy ‘Goodbye Yellow Brick Road’ also.

Does Elmer Fudd play a mean fiddle?

Bwhahaha! I haven't laughed at post that hard for a little while. I'm so using that later.

RE: “John is married to his longtime partner David Furnish”

Rush said that is a flat out lie.

---

I believe they are not MARRIED but had a CIVIL CEREMONY formalizing their “partnership”. They did not call it a wedding but a “civil partnership”.

Elton John paid his first ever visit to my town. I boycotted him.

Thanks for proving me right about you.

[ZirconEncrustedTweezers]

“The fascist will just claim RUSH brainwashed him”

Yeah, man, you ever hear “2112” played backwards? That’s some freaky-ass stuff!

Oops, wrong Rush. ;)

[Las Vegas Ron]

Does Elmer Fudd play a mean fiddle?

LOL!!

And Charlie Daniels says it's wabbit season!

[Ed Condon]

Does Charlie Daniels hunt wabbits?

[altura]

Rush is vehemently gay marriage? Odd, I’ve never heard him mention it... maybe he has but I missed it.

As a matter of fact Elton John is not in favor of it either. He says a legal document works just fine.

[lowbuck]

Not if he lives in the zoo!!

Zing, could not help myself!

[Mr. K]

Looks like being friends with Rush has knocked some sense into him

I thought it was nice of him to visit rush when he had his heart attack in the hotel

[Mr. K]

He makes a great point!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ALL GAYS SHOULD BOYCOTT CALIFORNIA!!!

No more Hollywood movies

[spectre]

"We are all very pleased to be playing in Arizona. I have read that some of the artists won't come here. They are (expletive)wits! Let's face it...(snip)

Why shoot the messenger, people? Arizona needs all the help it can get.

I think what Great Britian has is domestic partnership and that is what they have.It is our media who have seized on the word marriage.

[teeman8r]

if elton’s male mate, transexualizes, wouldn’t that solve his marriage problems...

will he still be gay.

will he still be able to sing.

enquiring minds want to know.

““John is married to his longtime partner David Furnish”

Rush said that is a flat out lie.”

So does Wikipedia...

“He met his Canadian-born partner David Furnish, a former advertising executive and now film maker, in 1993. On 21 December 2005, they entered into a civil partnership.”

In fact Elton John himself is not in favor of gay marriage. Here’s what he has said on the subject:

““What is wrong with Proposition 8 is that they went for marriage. Marriage is going to put a lot of people off, the word marriage… I don’t want to be married. I’m very happy with a civil partnership. If gay people want to get married, or get together, they should have a civil partnership… You get the same equal rights that we do when we have a civil partnership. Heterosexual people get married. We can have civil partnerships.” – Elton John

Politics, being a blood sport, is best left to the politicans. Smart move Elton.

[BfloGuy]

He’s the last one earth I’d expect to support (or even to tolerate) the new law.

I agree, but then, he's seen what immigration has wrought in old Blighty.

[11th Commandment]

AWESOME!

[reagan_fanatic]

"Someone Saved My Life Tonight” is one of the best songs ever.

I agree. Elton John has come out with some beautiful songs over his career - this is one of them.
