I was waiting for the &*%^&^% to post something like this, well here it is
$1:
Charming. And a glimpse of the future. Just imagine how hard it will be to get through future legislation on issues important to gays and lesbians, bisexuals and trans people. How much harder will we have to work to put shackles on Customs to stop them from targetting our books and bookstores? How much more difficult will it be to amend the sex laws to fully legalize bathhouses and ensure our youth have the right to choose how and when they express their sexuality? How much more troublesome will it be to amend Bill C-2 in future to add better protection for artists and writers doing work about coming out?
This is what it's always been about.

Hmmm... crusing the homo-politico sites, eh, Hwacker?
It would seem I never knew you at all.

People can shit on SUN media all they want, but it fills a void in Canada's media landscape that would remain largely empty without it.

"And now we may spend decades fighting rearguard actions"
I thought the entire lifestyle was about rearguard actions.
Don't really care what consenting adults do. If they want to call it marriage or a union, whoopity doo doo. It doesn't affect me, my wife, or anyone else who chooses to be married in a religious ceremony. Outside the United Church, it is a purely civil ceremony. Even those UCC, who oppose it, are free not to perform the ceremony. There are alot more pressing concerns out there right now, like terrorism, child poverty, a shoddy education system, corrupt government officials and a criminal justice system that is pathetic.

poor analogy

The Sun's editorials are just as smart and relevant as the Star's. You just need to realize that other people have different views.

There are a lot of people out there who want to know what's going on in the world, but they don't want a complete analysis from economists, sociologists, politicians and spin doctors. They can get this from the tabloids. They also carry more local stories an lighter more up beat materials.

I would rather have a thourough analysis about a certain topic than some fluff piece that barely qualifies as news.
I also wouldn't mind the odd page 3 girl now and then either.

Just wanted to recognize one little attempt at humor before this thread descends into anger and vitriol.
