Surprise: Fred Thompson Opposes Gay Unions
Jerry Orbach would not be pleased.
Today, right here our own backyard, Republican Presidential candidate (and now eventual loser) Fred Thompson said he is "personally opposed to civil unions and domestic partnerships." Uh oh. The gays are gonna get so steamed!
The former actor and rabid fan of onyx jewelry went on to say "I do not think that they're a good idea," in regards to civil unions. (We're with you on that one, Freddy. But that's only because we prefer same-sex marriage over separate-but-equal civil unions. But that's neither here nor there.)
He's visiting the Bay Area, hitting three fundraisers today in Los Gatos, Carmichael, and San Francisco. Be sure to say hola if you see him around.

This can only mean one thing: he's obviously a huge fag. (As if being in showbusiness wasn't evidence enough!)
Some motorcade just cruised by on Leavenworth. I'm assuming it was this guy. Remind me again why we have to put up with intolerant people like this in SF?
"Weeeeeeeerl I may be just a simple country lawyer........"
We should put McCoy on his ass.
i saw that motorcade go down third street earlier this afternoon. was wondering if it was him, but do presidential candidates get the same block-the-streets-off treatment as presidents and other assorted dignitaries do?
Hysterical, rzu. I think you're unclear on the concept of tolerance.
If by "say hola" you mean, kick this "Appalatian catfish wrestler" in the groin.
Come to SF to hate on gays?? Seriously, even Republicans I know who live here are in favor of same-sex marriage.
The president of Uruguay is here visiting.
That's likely the motorcade people saw.
P.S. This is not my usual satire; it's true.
