“Dick’s Sporting Goods.” Your answer was voted the winner. Congratulations.

Thanks so much. I checked the gift registry and the happy couple would apparently adore a matched set of men's Speedos and tank tops. I'm just guessing, but size might be a problem.

OK, I gotta ask, which one will be the pitcher and which one the catcher?

No word what Ready’s partner died of...

Hmmmm, I wonder if it rhymes with "Raids"?

Took me a few seconds...then I realized they’re a perfect fit.
This is what Uganda thinks of Obama’s openness regarding
homosexuality.

That’s a couple who call hemmoroids “speed bumps”.

The media has brainwashed people into believing there is no god or God is ok with this. I just pray that if God is going to punish this nation, please make it surgical. We must pray for this nation to be restored to what the founding fathers intended or lose it to evil.

This is where I lose it with Neal Boortz, which is a shame because he's excellent on some issues. However, he's so against dealing with gay marriage, abortion, etc, and villifies those of us who care about these things (gonna lose the precious independents don't ya know).

Can’t find info on whether that’s the case but did find this

http://www.advocate.com/Politics/Politicians/Harrumph!/

2009:
>>When I joined Frank and Ready for dinner two days earlier at the Cheesecake Factory in Newton, Frank spent much of the meal smiling and fawning over Ready. The two became a couple three years ago when Ready pursued Frank at a gay political fund-raiser in Maine, where Ready still lives. “I’ve had a crush on Barney for 20 years,” he told me, rubbing Frank’s back.

>>The happy couple are back at it this morning, playfully debating which local anchormen are gay (“It’s pretty clear that all male weathermen are gay,” Frank says) and poking fun at Frank for not knowing how to use the Internet. “It’s probably for the best, because Barney would somehow manage to break the Internet,” Ready says with a chuckle. “He breaks everything.”

>>“I’m very clumsy,” Frank concedes, tying his tie. “I just get frustrated when something doesn’t work, so I’ll just start banging on it. ”

>>As we wait for Frank’s driver—a gay police officer named Steve Morin — to pick us up and drive us to polling places where the congressman will greet voters...

Partner: “I’ll make an honest man out of ya”.

Barney: “That’s not possible.”

Boortz is a spectator like the rest of us. He thinks people are robots and there are no outside forces that can change everything.

The Bible, in Judges 7, records the story of Gideon and his 300 men:

Gideon and 32,000 Israelite troops gathered near the Midianite camp, but they were severely outnumbered by their 135,000 oppressors. Gideon was ready to do battle, but God had other plans. He was about to show His people just how powerful a God He was.

God told Gideon to let anyone who was afraid of the upcoming battle return home. Twenty-two thousand men took the opportunity to leave their ranks, leaving only 10,000 remaining. But God was looking for a smaller group still.

God then told Gideon to have the remainder drink from the spring, and all those who lapped the water like a dog would remain, while the rest were sent home. Finally, with only 300 men, Gideon and his little army surrounded the Midianites. On signal they blew trumpets, broke the pitchers covering their torches and shouted, “The sword of the Lord and of Gideon!” (Judges 7:20).

Then the unthinkable happened. These 300 men—holding not swords, but torches and trumpets—routed the entire Midianite camp. Scripture records that God “set every man’s sword against his companion throughout the whole camp” (Judges 7:22). So before the Israelites even had a chance to reach for swords, God plunged the enemy camp into chaos and wild defeat. The Israelites were delivered from their foes by a miracle.

This famous story illustrates an invaluable lesson: It is God who gives the victory. His sword is what will deliver us.

Four years is a long time? Not even to Newt.

Please, please, please... if anybody from the Rick Santorum or Newt Gingrich campaign staff is reading this, **PLEASE** have your candidates make this a point in one of the upcoming debates to remind voters of what Mitt Romney has done in the not-so-distant past.

27 posted on Thursday, January 26, 2012 12:10:32 PM by maryz: “Sounds like even Barney Frank, even in liberal MA, didn’t think he could be re-elected after entering into a gay “marriage” ...”

Interesting point.

Anyone know if there's a reason he waited?

Rep. Barney Frank has been open-and-out for so many years that I would think his constituents would view getting married as “settling down” rather than something upsetting.

But maybe even in the Cape Cod area this would still have been a political problem. Sometimes I am surprised how there's still a core root of morality in far-left liberal areas that “snaps back” when people have finally had all they can stomach.

Did anyone pick Barney in the Howie Carr Death Pool? Sounds like Barney is checking off his Bucket List.

I love Pastor Ssempa! A got a big kick out of his explaining to the American reporter that “...heterosexuals do not eat poop.”

The best thing was that the reporter couldn’t shame the Pastor into backing down.

I do know that
Barney The Bugger of Bayonne

will not be getting "married" in his home town.

How Bayonne could produce a fine American like Chuck Wepner and this Masshole queerweasel is one of life's unsolved ironies.

Frank's catamite is from MAINE? Got to be Ogunquit. South Portland? A fugepacker at the L.L. Bean store up to Freeport?

I hope the Passamaquoddy and Kennebec shamans can come up with some sort of purification ritual ... maybe we can get things running right now that this Ready fellow is to become a Masshole.
