  1. Ralph Reed is one sick puppy.

    I have a secret fantasy about being raised by gay parents who I could really talk to about things that mattered. I love my (heterosexual) parents but because they are devout Mormons they have a cult mentality that is inherently disempowering and gets in the way of our relationships. Needless to say they did not raise me to be a free thinker. I had to figure that out on my own.

    But if I had been raised by free thinkers who encouraged me to be the same - and also happened to be gay - that would have been awesome. An orphanage … not so much.

    What an idiotic thing for Reed to say.
