Talk:Phyllis Schlafly

Is a prokaryote. ? You do know that germs fall in this category right?--TimS 15:09, 24 May 2007 (CDT)

:) I didn't bother to look up eukaryote, but I was pretty sure what I meant, yes. human^{be in} 15:17, 24 May 2007 (CDT)

Wow, why didn't I see that connection! -Icewedge 15:13, 24 May 2007 (CDT)

I am really trying hard not to add "mother of a mostly straight brood." Flippin^;-)

Over on this side of the pond, we use "confirmed batchelor". if that helps. αιρδισΗ^ταλκ 14:20, 25 May 2007 (CDT)

LMFAO! Thanks, Air! Flippin^;-)

My father loves to recall an old Marty Feldman routine where he goes on at length about this fellow he knew, and all the men he was friends with..a lot of sailors and so forth, coming to visit him every night..always coming back to the phrase, "Funny he never married." --Kels 14:25, 25 May 2007 (CDT)

See the original article and this edit. For what it's worth, I'd be fine with that, but I took it out because the consensus seemed to be against commenting on things like that, no matter how funny they are. --jtl^talk 18:27, 25 May 2007 (CDT)

I am officially speaking against that so-called consensus. Calling him gay is not an attack, it's a simple description. Assuming it's an insult is tacitly agreeing that being gay is a bad thing. --Kels 20:23, 25 May 2007 (CDT)

To us, yes, it is a simple truth. To the family, it is a deep dark secret, and that is a very important factor in describing these arch right wing political types. Our Vice President is another miserable hypocrite on this issue, which is why I created the second category (well, redlinked it) you'll see on her article. human^{be in} 21:03, 25 May 2007 (CDT)

I noticed that already, well played. But honestly, given what we say about Roger and Andy in their articles (or rather what you guys say, I haven't contributed there (yet)), why are we shying away from calling a gay guy, well, a gay guy? --Kels 21:05, 25 May 2007 (CDT)

One maybe-essential difference is, as far as I know at least, John hasn't participated in Conservapedia or any other online forum. --jtl^talk 21:39, 25 May 2007 (CDT)

I was under the understanding he was out? Is that wrong? If he is, it's just a simple declaration, nothing to get worked up over, same as saying he was white or liked the colour blue or something. --Kels 21:46, 25 May 2007 (CDT)

He is out. The fact that ASchlafly suppresses all mention of John's sexuality, whilst giving tacit approval to CP's rabid anti-gay rhetoric, makes it noteworthy, I'm afraid. If he'd come right out and say, "Yes, I believe my brother's going to Hell," then I'd happily support never mentioning John again. --Robledo 21:54, 25 May 2007 (CDT)
