Creep of the Week: Tim Hicks
Attention all incestuous Iowans. Your dream is coming true. Soon you'll be able to marry the object of your incestuous affections. Since that's how incest works: just two people in love, oppressed by blood. It's like Flowers In the Attic on [...]
Creep of the Week: Saline School Board
I think we can all agree that bullying is bad. No one likes to be bullied (Well, OK, some people do, but not, like, for real. That's why they have a safe word.) and no one wants their kids to get taunted and harassed while they're at school. But if [...]
Creep of the Week: Matt Barber
It feels like every time we check the news this month there's a story about yet another young person taking his or her life in order to escape anti-gay bullying. It's heartbreaking. And not just for the gay community. Even Matt Barber of the [...]
Creep of the Week: Andrew Shirvell
Hopefully by the time you are reading this, Michigan assistant attorney general Andrew Shirvell is out of a job. Shirvell recently took a paid leave of absence after his favorite hobby became subject of a media frenzy. That hobby? Stalking and [...]
Creep of the Week: Ann Coulter
Perhaps it was Ann Coulter's very public referral to former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards as a "faggot" that nabbed her an invitation to address a conservative gay group, or maybe it was her recent essay extolling the virtues of [...]
Creep of the Week: Tony Perkins
Everybody loves a parade, don't they? Especially gays. And gay-loving militaries the world over. I mean, with homos in the ranks, they aren't much for fighting, but they can build a fabulous flotilla of floats. Or so Tony Perkins of the Family [...]
Creep of the Week: David Kupelian
You know, there are so many reasons to dislike Glenn Beck. So, so many good, good reasons. He is, in my most personal and unreserved opinion, a moron. He is not, however, Mr. Gay Marriage all of a sudden. In a recent televised conversation with [...]
Creep of the Week: Charlie Crist
Look, I don't know if Florida Gov. Charlie Crist is gay. And while it really should be a non-issue because being gay is not this scandalous thing that makes a person unfit for public office like some loonies on the far right believe, the fact is: [...]
Creep of the Week: Jeremy Walters
Dear Internet Citizens: Facebook is not private. I don't care how many privacy-setting loops you jump through. The more "friends" you have, the more public your page. Facebook is not a lockbox for your most private feelings and random musings. [...]
Creep of the Week: Bill McCollum
I've never much cared for Florida. I mean, sure, alligators are cool. It has nice weather in the winter and is home to many kind grandmas, not to mention Disney World. But it also is the only state to completely ban gay people from adopting [...]
Creep of the Week: Gary Cass
With Prop. 8 being overturned in California, some folks are a little pissed. And the fact that Vaughn R. Walker, the judge who ruled that it's not cool to deny gay and lesbian folks the right to marry, is, in fact, a homo himself hasn't been lost [...]
Creep of the Week: Tim Ravndal
Shepard's murder is the exact kind of thing that seems so terrible at the time but you think, "One day we're all gonna look back on this and laugh." If you're a total shit-for-brains asshole, that is. Enter Tim Ravndal, president of the Big Sky Tea [...]
