Local color from the Sarah Palin book tour:
The event also drew its share of more ideological conservatives. Bob Weinert, 56, a fencing salesman from Lansing, said he'd heard Rush Limbaugh say recently that Palin is "the most conservative candidate out there." She represents, he said, "limited government and traditional values," including "putting homos back in the closet."
"And putting Christmas in the stores," added his wife, Rexanna, who said she felt she could trust the "down-to-earth" Palin.
It's all about priorities!
Homos like Larry Craig?
OK, I'm taking his advice.
Hey! I can't see out past all these sweaters!
Or combining the Weinert logic, "putting homos back in the stores," which would make for one very Merry Christmas all around.
Putting homos back in the closet and Christmas in the stores? But who will dress the windows?
Jesus.
I don't think he wore pants, so he's suspect gay goo.
I don't think he wore pants, so he's a suspect gay too.
(Damn comment box hidden under the Most Commented box.)
No he's totally suspect gay goo.
Jesus loves everyone – totally bi.
Ride the gay sleigh!
"Rexanna"? Really?
(post-op)
Ha! Here I was only thinking she might be, erm, suspiciously lithe…
Yours is better!
Ah, Western Michigan, where Catholics are proud of being known as them "crazy liberals".
They definitely have their own velvet rope form of Jesus in Grand Rapids/Holland.
I'm puzzled. Does this mean I have to let Dancer and Prancer out of the closet?
“She stands for everything I believe. I wear a suit and nylons and pumps to work†while loving nature, said Kim VandeKoppel, who runs a printing business in Grand Rapids, and who also praised Palin’s “Christian beliefs.â€
Yes, a politician is being commended for her pro-nylon stance. This… I just…
Ya think VandeKoppel would still approve if she knew those pumps are "Naughty Monkey"?
(And really & truly, had ANYONE ever actually heard of "Naughty Monkey" before this woman subjected us to breathless recaps of all her sartorial choices?)
But what does Mary think?
Can I love nature but hate nylons? Or would that make me a RINO in these folks' eyes?
gay bars were a lot more fun back when you had to be sneaky
No, really, they weren't.
Like, you mean back when you could be arrested?
Yeah, I bet those blacked-out windows were super great for blocking glare.
I work on my company's mailing list database so often that Googling people's names is now just a blind habit. So it didn't take me very long to find a guy online named "Robert Weinert" from Michigan who writes about "The Center of Jerusalem – Location 666" and other fucking obnoxious things.

Way #6,993 In Which I Am,To Quote Sarah Palin, "A Liberal Elite": My first visual image of "Bob Weinert, 56, a fencing salesman" was a distinguished purveyor of fine epees, sabres, and wire-mesh masks, not [whatever it is one makes fences out of].
Hahahaha!! MINE TOO!
(In fact, it's only just now occurred to me that's not what he sells. So thanks for that!)
Where I live, the fencing salesmen sell stolen or donated clothes. And usually stale bread, a few boxes of Rice-A-Roni, and cans of soup on the sidewalk next to the fencing.
Ain't homonyms the best?
A good part of myself would myself would vanish without it! Maybe the best part!
I was not aware that Grand Rapids was famous for its lack of retail holiday shopping and rampant homosexuality.
Who pays retail?
Not the gays, that's for sure. Have you seen their fabulous houses?
Lots of closet space.
Girl.
This reminds me that it's almost time to put up my Christmas homo – and not one of those artificial ones.
