Two soulless anti-gay throwbacks to an embarrassing and disappearing time are back in the news for their last hurrahs.

---

ITEM: Self-loathing gay senator Larry Craig is insolently breaking his pledge to resign on September 30, now that the judge hearing his frivolous petition to withdraw his guilty plea has indicated that no decision will be forthcoming before then. If there was a ever a real-word version of the decrepit, corrupted and corroded character Gollum, then it is Craig: a man so hopelessly at war with himself and so entranced by his ("precious") political office that he simply cannot grasp how meaningless, and how hopeless, his own repulsive existence has become. Most recent post here.

ITEM: Meanwhile, another hopeless and repulsive man, retiring Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Peter Pace, was graciously afforded an opportunity to publicly redeem himself before a Senate committee after his bilious remarks about gays (not just gays in the military, but all gays). Instead, he told the senators, and gays across America, to suck it. Even in the Twenty-First Century, a senior military officer -- a man whose entire adult life has been devoted to devising more and better ways to kill and destroy -- can still, somehow, pretend to represent "God's Law." The road is long, very long. Previous post here.
