Remember that whole debacle about Sarah Palin not having a passport until a few years back and how it was proof that she lacks foreign policy experience. Well, she only got that passport to come to Kuwait to visit the Alaskan division of the army...

Once again live-blogging the debate here. Please chime in with your own thoughts in the comment section! Tonight's debate is in Nashville, Tenn., a city I know very well, having grown up just a few hours down the road in... Read more...

The U.S. presidential election isn't just making news headlines here in Brazil; it's producing its own sideline stories. For instance, there were eight "Barack Obamas" on last weekend's municipal election ballot. How's...

The Washington Blade, which Chris used to run, has published an interview with Republican presidential nominee John McCain. It will probably not change a single gay Democratic vote, and frankly that doesn't matter. (And the partisan vipers who...

As someone who “chose” to go through an “ex-gay” program I made a video taking Sarah Palin to task for her absurd claim homosexuality is a choice (comically and with righteous sass I might add). http://www.youtube.com/watch...

After a relatively quiet week here on the blog, I'm going to live-blog the first presidential debate in Oxford, Miss. I'll be adding a bit of armchair commentary from Steve Koval, my former co-blogger at the Washington Blade, who is... Read...

I've done a series of posts called McCain's Neuron's I, II, and III. I'm not going to bias you by calling this McCain's neuron's IV, but this is truly bizarre at best. In an interview with a Spanish newspaper from... Read...

Not buying into the Log Cabin schtick that John McCain and Sarah Palin are “a different kind of Republican”? Convinced you are settling if you back Barack Obama despite his opposition to gay marriage? There’s always “a third way.” Or... Read more...

The newest test of the two presidential candidates, after the Russian invasion and land grab in Georgia, is upon us. The collapse of Lehman Brothers, the fourth largest investment bank in the world, and the feverishly rapid buyout of Merrill......

There is no question that Barack Obama and his senior aides ran an astounding primary campaign, right through to the nomination acceptance speech at the end of their triumphant convention in Denver. Obama broke out of the pack early on,... Read...

Just as I expected, Kevin has made by far the strongest argument I've seen anywhere in favor of the Log Cabin endorsement of McCain-Palin. His general point is that the decision was necessary for Log Cabin to retain any influence... Read more...

I'm usually in bed by 11, so I TIVO the Daily Show with Jon Stewart every night and watch it the next day. Last night was their wrap up of the Republican National Convention in St. Paul, Minnesota, and it... Read more...

Although Chris will slather the criticism on like layers of icing on a New Jersey Italian wedding cake, he gets credit for doling out the praise when it's due. (Well, a bit more was due for the Log Cabin Romney... Read more...

I was more impressed than Andoni with John McCain's speech last night, although I agree that much of his rhetoric rings hollow considering how dismissive he's been toward gay civil rights. ("Education is the civil rights issue of this...

More encouraging news out of the Republican convention: John McCain's senior campaign strategist Steve Schmidt showed up at a Log Cabin meeting to, in his words, "pay my respect and campaign’s respect to your organization and to your group"...

I just finished watching Senator John McCain's acceptance speech for the Republican nomination for president. Having watched other McCain speeches, I thought this was one of his better deliveries. The only point I will make is that his speech...

Count me among those not particularly impressed by Sarah Palin's speech last night at the Republican National Convention. I do understand why the delegates went ga-ga for her and why Kevin loved it. Considering all the hits she took in... Read...

Since I've been pretty harsh on Log Cabin for endorsing the McCain-Palin ticket, I feel especially obliged to point out some positive developments in these early days of the Republican National Convention. By far the most impressive was some...

Is political insanity running rampant among Republicans these days? First John McCain threw good sense to the wind and tapped Sarah Palin as his running mate, even though she is untested and astonishingly unqualified to be one septuagenarian heartbeat...

Drip, drip, drip. When Senator John McCain chose and then introduced Sarah Palin as his running mate in Ohio, he stressed how she was a reformer who fought against Washington pork, just as he had. Well, in addition to the... Read more...

It's been only 3 days since Senator John McCain introduced us to his chosen running mate, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. During that time several public lies have come to light vis a vis Palin's political career. The first lie relates... Read...

All signs point to a forthcoming Log Cabin endorsement of the McCain-Palin ticket, which would be profoundly disappointing from a group I believe is committed to the struggle for gay civil rights and equality. As much as my co-blogger Kevin... Read...

Call me shocked but not surprised by Senator John McCain's pick of Alaska governor Sarah Palin as his vice presidential nominee. Palin would be a heartbeat away from the oldest president ever elected to a first term, and one who... Read more...

Well, she's not Mitt Romney. But many Americans down in the lower 48 are asking themselves, who the hell is Sarah Palin? The Governor of Alaska is perhaps best known anywhere for having an approval rating of around 90% in... Read more...

John McCain is expected to announce his running mate in the next 24 hours. The rising speculation from Republican and conservative circles is that it will be Mitt Romney, McCain's defeated foe from the primaries. Knowing how Republican activists...

I need not write another word on the unrelentingly self-obsessed former president. Chris, Andoni and many others have done a marvelous job already. But for those who spent so many years enabling Bill Clinton's particular brand of political onanism...
