People are talking about the too-little-too-late flip-flop on gay marriage by former US president Bill Clinton — explained again in an interview this weekend:
Oh, thanks for nothing, Bill — your support today means very little compared to how you threw gays under the bus when you actually had power (and any similarity to our current situation with Barack Obama is painfully coincidental!).
Fact is, on the ally scale, Bill ranks only slightly higher than anti-gay conservative leader (and mother of a gay son) Phyllis Schlafly, who told a room full of wingnuts this weekend that the “attack on marriage” they’re always on about isn’t the fault of homosexuals but moreso those horrible, horrible feminists:
Gay activists clearly still have a lot of work to do…and it looks like we’ll be doing it without much help.
