Related: About this forumDo you guys ever wonder how Andrew fucking Sullivan became an acceptable gay person
for Democrats/Liberals? I still can't say his name without feeling slightly nauseous.
Does no one remember Sullivan from the 90's at all?

If he has genuinely turned a leaf after learning the truth, terrific - but the fact that he is held up here as an authority on ANYTHING (other than perhaps appeasement) is really disappointing (at a minimum).

Just because you're gay doesn't mean you're not a douche.

He's lost some of the luster for conservatives over the years, but a disgruntled conservative is still a conservative.

(17,997 posts)As wonderfully, beautifully nice as it would be to pick and choose who belongs to what group, we don't get to do that.
If we could, I would choose to accept Sofia Vergara and Mila Kunis to be lesbians but only gay for me. And I would choose not to accept any LGBT Republican.
While we're at it, I choose not to accept Anne Coulter as a female.

I actually met him one night in a bar in DC. He was hitting on my friend who had no idea who he was and so my friend was puzzled by his arrogance and his assumption that he would be flattered by his attention. Andrew asked him a couple of times "Do you know who I am?" Blank stare from my friend. Finally I rescued my friend and said "I will help you figure him out when we get home but for now just know that he is a Republican". My friend said "But he is a Brit".

(55,145 posts)I could not stand him then, I can't stand him now. He goes they way the wind is blowing. Just wait, he will come back to his 90's style again when it suits him.
As a side note, look here what I was told! http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1017&pid=214261 I have been down so many friggin rabbit holes here on DU this past week, and it is not one bit funny.
