Portia’s gay marriage politics
The Daily Caller ^ | December 1, 2010 | Ben-Peter Terpstra

Posted on 12/01/2010 3:42:24 PM PST by AustralianConservative

In America, you probably know her as Portia de Rossi, but in my town, Geelong, she’s also known as Amanda Lee Rogers, born January 31, 1973. “Married” to talk show host Ellen DeGeneres, the Generation X star and vegan lesbian, however, seems more Hollywood than regional Australian.

Of late, the celebrity has attacked our prime minister, Julia Gillard, for defending time-honored traditional marriages, but has also received criticism for refusing to be interviewed by men. Perhaps, though, Portia was never about tolerance. And it invites the question: What gives her the right to preach about civil rights while treating some males like lepers?

Still, my fellow Australians aren’t all marching to Portia’s beat — outside of Hollywood, I mean.

Restaurateur John Spellman, one of the pioneers of gay rights in Darwin, Australia, opposes the Northern Territory branch of the Labor Party’s attempts to push the Federal Parliament to legalize gay marriage. In his view, “marriage is not the right word. It’s religious. It’s for a man and a woman to produce children. And I think you’d offend a lot of people by using the word marriage.”

Christopher Pearson, who works as a tutor and happens to be gay, submits that radical environmentalists are using the sacred institution for their bizarre agendas. “Among the reasons the Greens are so keen on same-sex marriage is that they want to reduce the population and drive down national fertility. Their refusal to discriminate positively in favour of heterosexuality and uphold the distinctive value of normal marriage shows their political project yet again for what it is: a dead end.”

This is what frustrated actresses who can’t act do for attention.

Could she be the centerpiece of a splendid Auto da Fe’? No,now that I think of it that would require a severe spirituality, sufficient to excrete Western societies criminal degenerates.

I find it interesting that lesbians often tend to be hateful, and especially toward men.

She’s not a talentless hag, and I’m sure she’s not smelly. C’mon, guys, you sound stupid.

She is just another libtard in Hollywood. Big deal.

The only reason anyone knows of her is because of this sham wedding. She has no career. "Arrested Development" was the last big gig and that was years ago and the ratings sucked. She is hot though.

She needs bigger boobs to be considered “hot.”

Here is her IMDB list of accomplishments. Can you tell me where the talent is? Her career is kaput.

I'm a leg man, so that usually isn't on my radar.

Ewwwwww!

She looks like she has the legs of an anorexic frog.

Hope her “husband” is feeding her.

Right. She’s no Shakespearean actress.

Neither her or her “husband” have talent IMO.

I wonder how “long” her marriage will last. I hear that Ellen is not the world’s best husband.

Agreed. There are some very angry and deeply wounded lesbians with severe men issues.

I never said she was ugly although her frog legs don’t do much for me. That said, she has too much power for a dumb person.
