Former area Boy Scouts react to decision allowing gay scouts
All kids should be protected from molestation, whenever possible.
However, gay men are no more likely, in fact less likely to molest kids than straight men are.
I hope that you've gotten therapy and help - although being a victim of molestation is horrible, some healing and growth is possible, with time and help.

Except that I'm not at all. My view isn't based on idealizing one side or the other, or ignoring inconvenient facts. I don't see any sort of "equal number" of people trying to crucify Bush for this - where do you find that?
And, what exactly is equally biased in DT's post - he simply points out that the Congressional R have been blocking appointments, which is true.
There's a big difference between having a point of view, after careful consideration of facts and actions, and simply being so biased that you can't see clearly, and have to exclude massive amounts of information to maintain your view.

Club Magic manager says he's trying to turn around a new business at an old, and troubled, location
Yes, because there have been numerous shootings outside of concerts that Wagner has been played at, of course.
I assume you're referring to the use of Wagner's music by the Nazis?
You do realize that Wagner's music and operas have been played over the last 60-70 years without any sort of problem, I hope.

Opinion: Why gay role models matter
Well, if you've ever been married and have pictures of your spouse, children, etc. or ever talk about them then your sexuality is known to others to some degree.
Very few people are completely private about their sexuality - they just aren't aware of the many ways in which they communicate it to others.

Well, I don't know if he's responsible either.
He was however the head of the IRS during that time, which is a much closer tie to the IRS than the presidency.
Do you hold the president personally responsible for everything that happens in the federal government?
I point out that the head of the IRS was appointed by Bush in response to the attempt to tar and feather Obama with this problem - folks who do that seem to forget that inconvenient fact.

I like that idea :-)
You don't hear about these sorts of thing happening at classical music venues, do you?

What behavior?
There's no evidence that the president was involved in any way in the IRS nonsense.

Sure - I had the same misunderstanding before I did a little research.
