One of the most heated topics is the subject of gay marriage. For those who defend traditional marriage it’s often a no-win conversation. The militant proponents of gay marriage are quick to demonize those defending traditional marriage by referring to them as bigots and other ugly names. You probably know that Rush Limbaugh got married last weekend. Many people were surprised that Elton John performed at the wedding for the new couple and guests. Some were shocked by this because of Elton John being a gay man and Rush Limbaugh being on the opposite political spectrum. Now in general I think Rush lands on the side of traditional marriage. But as an avid listener of his show I don’t think I’ve ever heard him get in depth on the topic, or even spend a large amount of time on the debate.

Which brings us to perception from the other side of the aisle. This is Joy Behar of The View discussing the event. She was outraged that Elton choose to perform at the wedding. It makes me wonder who the real bigot is? Rush Limbaugh or Joy Behar? Joy seems to believe that this an issue with no middle ground, and no room for anyone to dissent from her view. In fact she even tries to compare it to someone performing for the KKK or in South Africa during the apartheid. As heated at this topic is I think such comparisons are ridiculous and really an outrage.

Maybe Joy Behar is the one who needs to learn a little bit about tolerance. She could take a lesson from Rush and Elton on the matter.

Leak on the leak, from my source at the White House, Day 43: Robert Gibbs sports an LSU football jersey during a press conference to appease the spill. Unfortunately the hole is a ‘Bama fan. The White House mistakenly thought that meant "Obama fan" instead of Crimson Tide. Gibbs blames bad intel on previous administration.
