Yup.... And someone who's interested in World War II may not be interested in Ancient Egypt. And yet, The History Channel does quite well.
Never mind whether a gay cable channel is a sign of cultural collapse or not. If this is the mindset of the people trying to put the station together, it's going to collapse of its own confusion.
She's a fag hag. I'm so disillusioned.

We are the country of "Will and Grace" and "Will and Will 24/7" and journalists have to cover that. But if we really believe in America or want to believe in it, then at this time, we ought to be using an important slot in an important newspaper to talk about something really important and valuable to us as Americans.
We Americans are for freedom, and some Americans are now fighting for freedom. "Freedom" means that people will use their liberty as they see fit and may not always use it wisely or decorously. But the "fighting" part does seem to imply that we should make wise and seemly use of that liberty so as not to waste or mock the sacrifices of others.
Finally, the hypocrisy of liberal America astounds and troubles. Metropolitan sophisticates mock their parents or grandparents of the 1950s for sinking into what they like to think of as commercialism and conformity. Yet overturning their world and embracing new "lifestyles" they end up in the end accepting the same commercialism, conformity and banality that they attacked.
So now homosexuals have to decide if they are going to become everything they mocked or rebelled against. The greater irony is that most won't even realize what's happening to them, since advanced commercialism and mass culture flatter their victims that they aren't victims of commercialism and mass culture, like the other zhlubs.
It turns out I've got Mark Steyne's comments on Mo Dowd open in another window.
Hey, I know that channel. Didn't they used to show Michael Douglas movies a lot?
