Andrew Sullivan – back when the MSM considered him one of the “new generation of conservative intellectuals” – was the blog that got me started as a blogger, back in 2002.
His current obsession seems to be tittering about the sex lives of the Palin family (and of course, his endless sexist, classist, classless jabbering) – after having tried to declare his own off limits in the name of basic human decency.
Patterico:
Gee, I dunno. If Obama’s had written about the scourge of homosexual promiscuity, as Sullivan has, and then had advertised himself for promiscuous homosexual sex, as Sullivan did (link is not work-safe), advertising for “One-on-One’s, 3-Ways, Groups/Parties/Orgies, and Gang Bangs” — do you really think the press would not have written about it?
At least Sullivan’s story has a hypocrisy angle among the lurid details, the pictures of his naked buttocks on the Internet, and the description of his “power glutes.” Talking about the sex life of Sarah Palin’s sister or daughter has no legitimate purpose at all.
Truly reprehensible.
Sorry, blog-dad. I’m not taking care of you in your old age anymore.
I suggest you switch your reading habit to the only A. Sullivan who is both gay & conservative: http://www.seablogger.com/
Power glutes? Given the homosexual context all I can say is EEEEeeewwww!!!
Mitch, didn’t write a similar post inside the last two years?

I don’t think so. But I’ve written about 11,000 posts in six and a half years; anything’s possible.
You did, not even a year ago, in “Divorcing Your Parents.” Similar meme with the divorce idea, but divorce is something partners do, not children to parents.
Just think of yourself as having grown up and moved out of the house. Emancipation is so liberating!
And I still stand by comment in that thread that I never saw what others did in Sully, other than a dedication at the time to fight terrorism. His writing and style just never clicked with me.
Another hard-right extremist whose words are at odds with his sexual behavior. Color me shocked.
Sullivan a far-right extremist?
You ARE a clown! A funny, funny one!
Nerd,
Hm. There y’go!
Once a post falls off the bottom of the page, I pretty much forget about it. I’m amazed, occasionally, when I browse through old archives, at some of the stuff I find…

As will be any employer you ever apply to in the future…
The “bright” side is that if Sullivan keeps advertising for promiscuity and takes people up on their offer, odds are that you won’t get the chance to support him in his old age.
Sully has been awfully quiet today. Methinks he may have been taken out to the woodshed by the powers that be at the Atlantic.
