I wonder what search engine they’re going to use? I haven’t come across one yet that isn’t chock full of gay porn.

Isn’t that what you expect to get when you search for “gay porn?”

Altavista also supported gay rights. Guess google gets no conservative cred for donating to the Heritage Foundation ☹

Google sympathised with “it gets better” and launched an ad campaign with that theme, which was actually quite endearing. They also invited Dan Savage to a talk with Authors@googe where he was warmly received.

I mentioned this in the other thread, but shouldn’t they not use computers at all, since they are based on the work of that homo Alan Turing?

Far, far, FAR too many people. And don’t forget the best part of all the people who swallow all this crap - they’re all legally entitled to vote.

Eh. They’ll be alright. All the closeted pastors who make up the AFA board probably already have the m4m sections of Craigslist bookmarked.
