What a moving speech. It's hard to speak publicly when your emotions, your hopes and indeed your very acceptance as an equal are so enmeshed is such a seminal event. Kudos to him for attempting to vocalize the complicated feelings he and so many felt around today's vote.
I'm assuming this rant was brought on by the whole Anthony Weiner debacle. After all, what the world was really missing was another opinion about the whole episode and especially one from someone who draws a dated cartoon.
Franco should have just hit the whole list of all clothes ever. "I don't wear lederhosen a lot. I wish I could wear lederhosen. I don't look too great in just a dickie. I wish I could sport those a bit more. I don't wear tap shoes enough. I mean, I do wear them but not enough..."
When I lived in NYC, I went to several parties there in the 80s. I assume her brother (who died, RIP) was the host, an older well-heeled doctor who'd have bevies of young Chelsea Boys (of which I was one at the time) over. And I hate to disappoint but I never saw anything salacious happen at the parties (though I have no clue as to what happened later). In fact I distinctly remember thinking the water seemed rather icky, perhaps because it was enclosed inside.
Seeing as how Franco is infamous for playing James Dean, a more accurate description might be "James Franco only likes girls who look like him". There's likely a whole course right there.
At least the journalist was self-deprecating. O'Reilly would have ranted about how the Dalai Lama was communist for not understanding his American humor.
Yes, Baldwin, "Oh that Tracy". That pathetic, homophobic, hateful, ignorant and deeply unfunny Tracy. I suppose we could all just poo-poo his rant as the kooky antics of some wacky nut especially if, like you, our paycheck depended on him to some degree. But unfortunately he's not just some daffy uncle at Thanksgiving but he's spouting his hatred to crowds who pay to hear him. If you can afford to condescendingly ignore him, good for you. But for those of us he thinks should be shot, not so much.
