If you read only one blog full of ranting and raving about sports (local and otherwise), movies, TV shows, miscellaneous pop culture, life and other assorted flotsam and jetsam, make it this one!

Dan Savage To White House: F.U.

The White House has a blog. It's not written by the President or First Lady or one of the kids, so it's not something I'm going to check out on even an occasional basis. However, there's a post there titled "It Gets Better." The post contains the transcript of a speech made by Senior Advisor to the President Valerie Jarrett at a dinner in Washington for the Human Rights Campaign. Even though she spoke about all of the recent suicides, it's pretty much the same self-congratulatory and self-serving pablum that comes from the administration. And Dan Savage called them on it. (As you can guess from the title of my post, he drops the F bomb on them.)

What would amaze me, if I were able to be amazed by the doings of politicians and their flunkies any more, is that they take "It Gets Better" as the title for the post, but don't bother to post a link to the It Gets Better website.
