Check out this post at Bristol’s blog and offer your thoughts. (I so appreciate her sincere and respectful “what do you think?” approach to these topics.) I am a huge admirer of Coach Dungy's, and I totally get where he's coming from. Looking at this personally, my family and I have been told certain event organizers would like us to participate in something but just can't because of the distractions I'd invite. I totally get it and I don't want to burden them with anything that takes focus off their mission. I don't whine that those people "uninviting" us are sexist or anti-conservative or anti-Christian. It is what it is, and in sports a coach needs to FOCUS on the goal, not unnecessary distractions! The key to victory on the field is keeping the main thing, the main thing.

(And, by the way, I think I know my gay friends well enough to know that not one of them would take offense with Coach Dungy's commonsense comments. In fact, from what they've told me, they're as sick and tired of the intolerant, politically correct thought police as I am. The small minority of uber-sensitive intolerant gays who make a big darn deal out of anything that can be spun up as “offensive” are really giving fellow members of their community a bad rap.)

1. How can you have "gay friends"

when you condemn them at every turn?

[Miles Archer]

2. "But seriously, I kid the gays..."

She's playing the Don Rickles card. Apparently she loves her gay friends so much it takes the form of good-natured kidding from time to time (as in "every time she opens her mouth&quot .



She's on a roll. Yesterday she hung out with her conservative black friends, today she's doing a shout-out to her gay peeps.

4. I suspect that any friend of Sarah Palin's is probably

as nutty as she is, no matter who they love.

[petronius]

9. It's a typo - she meant "imaginary"... (nt)

[Aerows]

12. It's got to be.

No self-respecting LGBT would put up with the abuse she heaps on them and still call her a "friend".

[RedCappedBandit]

3. Now that idiot thinks she can speak for the gay community? FFS

[Aerows]

6. Excuse me for saying so

but she can kiss my homosexual ass, and I won't enjoy it in the slightest. I'll make the sacrifice because at least it will give her lips something to do besides inflicting everyone with inane horse shit.

[uppityperson]

5. You are gay because of your sexual activities, whereas you are black because that’s who you are"?

They really don't get it, do they? (rhetorical question)

[joeybee12]

7. Some of my best friends are black...nt

[bluesbassman]

8. I doubt any of her friends are happy at all.

And I seriously doubt she has any in the GLBT community either.

[Aerows]

10. No matter what community you are part of

there are crazy people in all of them. Look at gay Republicans, and black conservatives. Some people are just determined to do things against their best interest, whether for pay or because they are delusional that somehow they will gain acceptance.

[bluesbassman]

15. Ain't that the truth!

It's a never ending source of astonishment to me that there are people that buy into the fallacies promoted by the RWers that are directly contrary to their own circumstances. Delusional is probably the most apt description, sadly.

[HappyinLA]

11. Poor dear is just confused

When she says "gay friends" she really means all the guys her husband calls a "fag".

[BronxBoy]

13. I'm sure it's not just me....

but are they just pimping each others' brainless blogs? 6 years ago, the majority of the world would have cared less what the fuck Bristol Palin had to say about this issue or anything else for that matter.

To think that there are thousands or bright intelligent young women who could actually uplift the world but don't have this platform is a damn shame.

[William769]

14. FUCK HER AND THE BROOM SHE RODE IN ON!

[Aerows]

16. If she'd use it to sweep around her own front door

She'd be better off!

[Beaverhausen]

17. Is the guy in the photo one of her gay friends?

I'm confused. And anyway who gives a shit what she says.

[Ilsa]

18. She believes the excuse that she isn't being invited

to events because she would be a distraction? what a fantastic excuse to use to keep her away!
