1. God, I love Dan Savage.
The guy needs much more national exposure. He's a treasure.

2. If only we had politicians (Obama) with the same courage to call out the religious based bigotry.

5. He is correct. They don't care, but he still needs to call them out.
Many of their children and grandchildren are gay. I am one.
