Pretty On The Outside

President Obama

"This is our time. Our time to turn the page on the policies of the past."

Obamacrombie & Fitch

I love this photo of three guys in Abercrombie & Fitch tshirts behind Obama.  Is A & F endorsing Barack?  Is this just excellent product placement?  Is this a sign that the gays are increasing their support for him?  Hmmm....... not sure, but I'd like to imagine Mr Obama doing some sort of joint ad campaign with the uber sexy retailer. 

Perhaps his shirtless, toned torso will be splashed across billboards, catalogs, and shopping bags?  Would this help get your vote?

See Dick see...........................

I love that there's so much speculation about what's being reflected on Dick Cheney's sunglasses.  I can't tell what's going on there.  ????  I hope it's not a naked woman as it's being rumored..... because, well.... poor woman.  I've come up with some other reflected possibilities for what our beloved vice president could be looking at.

See Dick see..........

..... the red hot Mario Lopez rehearsing for A Chorus Line.  I'd be smiling too if I was close to all that.

Hillary Winehouse

I'm still soooooooooooooooo loving the news that Amy Winehouse will be launching a beauty line.  It's like Britney coming out with a collection of panties or Posh Beckham trying to sell Dunkin Donuts.

Hillary Clinton surely could use an advantage at this point.  Maybe a new sensational look would be what it takes to put her back on top?  Just a thought.

I found this great clip on one of favorite sites, Towleroad.  Just imagine Hillary with a beehive during the video.  It would make it even more dynamic. 

Thanks to Jenn from the OC for the recommendation!

J is for John Gibson smothered in ignorance.

What a completely insensitive ass.  I think someone needs a pink slip.

Come on out

My blog buddy Richard Rothstein at QueerSighted asked me to create a Senator Larry Craig illustration to celebrate Oct 11, National Coming Out Day.  How could I resist drawing that hunky toe tapping marvel?  I envision an especially flirtatious Larry wearing a canary suit emerging from the closet bathroom (with a bit of TP on his heel) and declaring that he is not gay is gay.  Say it loud and say it proud Larry. 
This image comes with a giant nod to Keith Haring's poster which commemorates this day.
In the spirit of this occasion, I'd like to send some link love to several of my favorite gay identified sites.  In no particular order:

Dick Vader

"Vice President Cheney came up to see the Republicans yesterday," Clinton said at fundraiser. "You can always tell when the Republicans are getting restless, because the Vice President’s motorcade pulls into the Capitol, and Darth Vader emerges."

Thanks to my friend Ralph for tipping me off to this story.

Larry Craig's extreme makeover

Before:

Boring, buttoned up, bland, had a hard time finding a good man.

After:


Sexy, daring, confident, flirty, and ready to grab life by the balls.

Self loathing, bathroom sex loving, naughty boy Idaho GOP Senator Larry Craig resigned yesterday after a scandalous week.  His own party dropped him like a trophy wife who puts on too much weight.  I've seen enough of those extreme makeover shows to know that after you've been dumped the best thing a lady should do is get a new look.  Freshen things up.  I think his founding father-ish hairdo out of rolls of toilet paper is the sort of subtle elegance that will get him noticed everywhere, not just in airport bathrooms.  Good luck in your new life Larry. 

Toilet Time with Lewd Larry Craig

When you fantasize about a hot guy it's probably a Republican Senator from Idaho.  Right?  And when you imagine the most romantic place to make sweet love to a willing partner you probably think of the men's restroom at the Minneapolis Airport.  Right?  That fantasy of the perfect man in the perfect situation came true when super sexy Idaho Senator Larry Craig tried to get it on with an undercover police officer.  The totally studly Senator was arrested earlier this month for lewd conduct in a Minneapolis Airport Bathroom.     
"I'm not gay, and never have been gay", said the red hot Senator.  I guess he just tapping his foot and peering into the stall next to him because he needed to borrow some toilet paper.  Right?

Discussion:
Larry Craig pleads guilty to misdemeanor charge.
Does Larry Craig have restless leg syndrome?
Gop Senator: Totally not gay.

Later Rover

Dr Evil Karl Rove is resigning his position as head string puller for the W.
Karla can now devote himself full time to championing causes near and dear to his heart such as: same-sex marriage, teddy bear collecting, and poodle breeding.  Good luck in your new life Karla.
