1. Stuffing it down his throat
A strange use of words on his part.

2. Sorry, but this is Cenk being juvenile. I was expecting it to be the Republican.
The Republican was using ordinary expressions, which the Freepers find endlessly amusing , but he wasn't using it that way. Cenk was the one doing the 14 year old boy routine, not to mention oddly associating oral sex with gay people.

Sorry, but Cenk loses points on this one. He lost some points the other night, but I can't remember what that was, so it must not have been terrible.

4. I thought it was funny too
some people need to loosen up. What this Senator said about "the gays" spreading Sodom And Gomorroah world wide, wasnt so funny though.

5. I appreciate Cenk always standing up for GLBT issues. Sure, it's immature humor, but it's the
relevance to the bigot who's saying it that makes it funny...

this nutjob out west sounds like a wonnnnnnderful guy

6. See.... he doesn't mind gays, as long as they don't ACT gay!
:eyes::eyes::eyes::eyes::eyes::eyes::eyes::eyes::eyes:

As long as the gay knows its place and doesn't get all uppity and stuff.


Sodom & Gamorrah....localized....like in the IMAGINATION. Great... making policy based on fiction!

But now it's all over the place!!!! YIKES! Again, he's using his imagination if he thinks the gay is something newly wide spread. Like it hasn't cropped up in all time periods, in all places on earth, despite taboos and horrendous penalties. It still persists? WHY IS THAT???? Because it's normal for human sexuality, maybe? Like, get a clue, Buuuuters.

7.  The fundie "mind" works in mysterious ways.
Repression is a hilarious thing when it blurts itself out disguised as something quaintly recognizable.

8. Just for balance and I think Cenk is great but
I'm also from the South and we have a lot of great people down here along with the idiots everyone makes fun of. Unfortunately, the stupid ones are the ones most visible.
