Chris37, I understand where you are coming from. I don’t hate the guy. I happen to have enjoyed his defenses of Conservatism. He’s quite sharp and handles opposing questions very well.
I’m not down on Breitbart for hiring him. I’m not the type of person to advocate ostracizing homosexuals from the workplace. In this instance though, he’s working for a Conservative organization that has every expectation he will represent the brand to the best of his ability.
I think he failed there.
I’m no paragon of virtue. I’m not trying to be overly negative on it, but this is a very sensitive issue, and he messed up.
Breitbart has a right to consider it’s readers and ask itself if it is wise to keep the guy on. I can’t blame the organization if it finds that it can’t.
I didn’t hear all the press conference today, so perhaps some of this has been settled by now.
I don’t think that Milo should obsess over it. I do think he should have moved on. I am glad he has come to terms with it. It just seemed sad to me that he didn’t at least acknowledge how bad it was of that priest, and condemn it in more forceful terms.
I’ve pretty much said all I want to on the subject. This isn’t something high on my list right now. It came up, and I’ve addressed it in line with my thoughts on such things.
As for the things you mentioned, I’m glad you’ve been able to move on and view things well from the distance of time. All the best to you. I appreciate you explaining your thoughts on the subject, and what contributed to them.
Thank you.
It’s queer to be that simple minded.
Oh please: try that with the noobs.
Do you really think the FReepers on this thread don’t get that you’re trying to paint me with the “fag hag” brush to avoid the real issue?
What you may or may not consider the "real issue" is irrelevant.
Milo is a fag and I do not support faggotry.
Sorry if that irritates you.
Well .. no, actually.. I'm glad it irritates you.
It does when you make it obvious that it's the ONLY thing that's important to you.
“The semantics define how we think.”
Especially appropriate on this thread.
Well thanks for getting inside my head and explaining what I really mean.
Here I just thought I was objecting to faggotry.
So you say, but if you were not busily punching holes in a boat that needs bailing out, I wouldn't even bother addressing you.
Unfortunately, there are many such as yourself who tacitly believe their disdain for a moral evil gives them license to engage in a different moral evil.
Milo is a fag and I do not support faggotry.
Yeah, dude. We got that. What we're wondering is why you are so obsessed with homosexuality that you think it's an adequate answer to any and all questions regarding MIlo.
Hmmmmm?
I guess just being opposed to faggotry isn’t enough for you.
It has to be an Alynsky-Soros plot huh?
The Illuminati and Batboy and the ghost of Princess Di are at the heart of it.
How about maybe somebody just finds faggotry offensive?
Nah, ‘way too simple.
Thank you, DoughtyOne, you’re a good man, and i agree with everything in your post, especially about the priest.
There’s really nothing worse than someone who takes advantage of a position of trust for their own warped desires.
That’s bad stuff right there.
Thanks Chris37. I appreciate the compliment. Turn about being fair play, I appreciate you doing what I am compelled to do at times, lay it all out there so folks can understand where you are coming from. It takes a good honest and comfortable person in their own skin to do that.
That’s just it isn’t it, the betrayal on so many levels by the priest. If you think about his vows and his holy work, it’s really an example of a great failing.
Thanks again. Take care.
I’ll make another one, but this one’s only for humblegunner.......
bump
Now that makes sense
“Simple” isn’t the problem: “obsession” is.
I don't need to "get inside your head." What's coming out of it is quite sufficient.
I agree.
Well said, DO!
When you are in a war, you don’t sideline one of your best generals in order to make your enemy happy.
