Folks seem to be getting all upset about Larry Flynt’s recent comment in Vanity Fair: “I don’t hate gays. But I don’t want to live in an apartment full of
them. They’ll bitch and cry and all. That doesn’t bother Giuliani. It
doesn’t bother Giuliani to put a dress on to do ‘Saturday Night Live.’
I don’t trust him.”

Seriously, the man is making political statements, not social ones. He’s pandering to the right wing extremists who will be put off by associations between Giuliani and those tired stereotypes of homosexuality that resonate so clearly. Flynt is not a stupid man. He has shown time and time again that he is not a homophobe. He just doesn’t want Rudy Giuliani in the white house. I don’t either.

Rock on!
