Mayor Pete and his 'husband': Time Magazine's first couple?

An early pioneer of conservative talk radio was the late Bob Grant (1929 - 2013) who broadcast out of New York City. Often when Grant was commenting on some outrage in the news, he'd say, "It's sick out there and getting sicker." If only he knew how his words would ring ever more true in the years to come. 

The case in point is the cover of the current Time magazine.  It is a photograph of "Mayor Pete" Buttigieg and his "husband" Chasten Buttigieg standing close together with the caption "First Family." (Permit me a minor digression here. If Chasten is the "husband" of this couple, why are both of them using Buttigieg's last name and not Chasten's which is Glezman? I guess I'm too old and deplorable to understand such nuances.)

This cover and its accompanying story is an in-your-face, full-blown endorsement of homosexual marriage and the effort to make it appear normal. Here we are seeing propaganda at its finest. It is an example of what the late Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan (D-NY) meant when he talked about "defining deviancy down." 

Moynihan based this observation of the work of sociologist Emile Durkheim who said there is a limit to bad behavior that a society can tolerate before it starts to lower its standards. Is this not what we have been seeing since the 1960s? One insult to the family, to fatherhood, to patriotism, and to normality itself ratchets traditional standards down. At that point, the system digests the changes, rests for a brief time, and then the left begins its next assault. The trajectory is always down, never up.   

I have been following the 'defining deviance down' process for more years than I can to remember.

Two homely guys pretending they are the Betty Crockers of the Gay Agenda. I can only hope for a Jim McGreevey incident to take these smug two out.

[Buckeye McFrog]

That’s how the gay mafia got where they are.
They just keep pushing and nobody pushes back.

So why on earth would they stop?

[Doogle]

...it’s a wonder they don’t have them fudge packing on the cover...

[Lisbon1940]

Notice how they roll up their sleeves.

[Da Coyote]

It’s a sure sign that “Mayor Pete” has no real talent of any kind when the ONLY thing that makes him special is the fact that his ‘spouse’ has a schwanzstucker.

Grow up, Time. Those of us out here with real jobs really do not give a shi...er...Obama what the sexual preferences of folks are. What we do care about, however, is that they just STFU and get a room and let the rest of us do creative work.

Next time, pick someone that’s actually talented in some way that benefits society and write about them.

I personally hate that this issue will be in our supermarket check out lane across the country........kids will see......indoctrination to the nth degree

Disgusting.....deviant......demonic!

[DungeonMaster]

I doubt there is enough straight guilt to get him elected.

I am not voting for a guy with that name, sorry. Don’t care if he is the last man standing. I have the absolute right to base my vote on whatever criteria I choose and to choose based on a whim. Not this dude.

1. What is this “time” magazine? I didn’t think they even existed anymore.

2. We need better names for the partners in a sodomite union. Husband and wife do not fit at all. I propose “pitcher” and “catcher”

[Guenevere]

Do you think they will put a brown wrapper over it or are they too afraid of the gay mafia

Let’s get creative......ooopsie maybe someone will hide these in the back of the stack or turn the cover around......

[Atticus]

I miss Bob Grant and his taunting of Bill Clinton (”Slick Willy”), Mario Cuomo (the “sfaccimm”) and David Dinkins (the “men’s room attendant”), not to mention the many callers who ticked him off (”Get off my phone, you fake, phony fraud!”).

[antidemoncrat]

Mega barf!

[Pravious]

I don’t care what his name is.

I DO care that he’s mentally screwed up to the point that he thinks his part X goes in another guy’s part Y and I don’t want him in charge of jack-shit in this country.

[Home-of-the-lazy-dog]

Mayor Poofter Buttsludge and his husband! Oh, how sweet. Oh my, how special. They’re such a lovely couple. It’s my understanding that they’re only campaigning on two positions: missionary and doggie-style.

Now if Time could put an image of that on their cover, I might take a gander at their product. It seems, they always stop short of showing sodomy in all of it’s radiant glory!

[I want the USA back]

I remember when “his husband” was a grammatical error.
