ugh give me a break. So the mayor decided to shag a younger guy and didn’t tell anyone about it. Who really cares? What business is it of anyones anyway, and isn’t he openly gay so what on earth did people think in Portland? that he was just NOT going to be involved with anyone?

I’m so tired of these things happening and then suddenly the younger guy is like “oh…oh dear yes this was inappropriate and i’m so freakin’ mature now that my face is on television”

If he let the mayor stick it in, then great. I don’t see why this is such a big scandal. The kid isn’t even that interesting.

Let’s start talking truth here. This is old story Beau is now 21 years old. The incident happened years ago. Sam got to be Mayor anyway The disdainers in the gay community and elsewhere should get off their high moralistic horses. Sam Adams and Beau are good men set up and caught up in a witch hunt in a homphobic community with a definite negative agenda. The righteousness of those especially in the Gay community of holding the position of “Tellng a lie” means there can be no trust moving forward is as bad as saying cickens have two legs, you have two legs therefore you are a chicken. False logic… Wake up to how politics works in the US and in the World. i.e. Bill Clinton; Politics is a different world. When Sam Adams guides the Portland Community through their economic struggles witin the next six months, this will be another old and amusing story – (except to those hoping to titilate themselves and others into some sort of orgasmic righteousness). Old story line folks – Drop the Stones and Move On!

I must assume this post is aimed at me?

re: “if you want to be accepted, just act straight”

I made no such statement.

End of argument

And just when you thought you’d heard the dumbest most revoltingly stupid thing you’d ever heard in your life, stroke inducing comments like “if you want to be accepted, just act straight” come along. I don’t want to be accepted, then. I want equal rights and equal protections, and no amount of assimilationism is going to get that for me. Instead, visibility (by being who we are and living our lives) will and has increased acceptance and tolerance. Blending IN does not in any way shape or form change attitudes people hold about gays. This is demonstrable. You act like a twit (like them) in your ridiculous image of suburban assimilationist sweater normalcy, and they compartmentalize–you are NOT THEM, and they vote against THEM, not you, while justifying it by the assumption that YOU, like THEM, don’t think THEY (the homos) deserve rights…after all, you’re not one of those gays…the gays they’re voting against. Being like heterosexuals has done wonders for this movement…oh, wait…there wouldn’t be a movement at all if we’d continued down that path.

Mr. Sullivan III, I meant no personal attack.

There is a hierarchy that we all come under. Think of it as a ‘flow chart’ where everything falls under, and branches off, of this imaginary line(s). The Hetero’s think of themselves as one(1) step under this ‘trunk’. Beginning with them: everything else is broken down into sub-groups. Although; (in reality) in their minds: they are ‘The Trunk’. The Homo’s to them, are some where far under this trunk, branched off some where as a sub-set.

The goal of the Homosexual community, or objective, is to move themselves up that flow chart: closer to The Trunk. Not a extension of, or sub-set of. “A state of real existence, rather than a possibility”.

“If the Homosexual community wont’s to win this war, just act straight”. The GLBT community will have to move themselves up that flow chart.

Picture beau breedlove as a heterosexual. Chav, and with girlfriend expecting their second love child…cheating with girlfriend’s sister.

The dog’s name (named after the long island lolita herself…) and dog walking sashay were low comedy, and looked staged by the station and beau.

It’s nice to see that breedlove and adams are still friends despite the fact that adams wouldn’t return the station breedlove conducted this interview with a callback. I imagine breedlove will be wearing off white at their wedding, after adams propses on bended knee in the same bathroom they shared a “romantic” kiss in. Phew, it’s time to calm down…

The name Beau Breedlove says it all, doesn’t it? These people are fame chasers and will do anything to get their sorry faces in the news. The mayor ought to know better. He ought to be grounded for a year.

without possiblities there is not future,,, check out our president. I dont ACT in any particular fashion,, but if I hear a negitive gay or black man as the butt of a joke I stand tall and rebufff the individual making the joke, and tell them why,,, that I am a gay proud man,,,not a misguided man who plays something he is not. In over 40 years I have gotten maybe 4 or 5 negitive responses. I dont ACT like anyone except who I am… I am a PROUD man. PERIOD

Act: a state of real existence rather than possibility.
