"Tantrums! You're throwing tantrums!"

This line of argument is old ... to the tune of better than 15 years.

There's very little difference between it and the "Angry White Male" (as personified by the Michael Douglas character in 'Falling Down') smears from circa 1994.

Sullivan needs to do something other than boost stale material and come up with something new.

Andrew Sullivan marries Aug. 27 in Provincetown, Mass., to health-club worker and acting student Aaron Tone. “I now understand the meaning of the phrase, ‘the happiest day of your life,’” Sullivan, stated after the ceremony.

After receiving copies of the wedding photos, Sullivan wrote on his blog: “Seeing them again reminds me of the dreamy dusk and night that we chose — a full moon over the water, and family and friends-who-are-family sending the love right back at us. This was not — repeat not — a political event,” he said. “But it took politics to get past politics, and to see this movement we are a part of as a human endeavor to bring love and civility and family into lives that have sometimes been denied all of the above.”
