Gay activist and the Obama administration’s unofficial anti-bullying czar Dan Savage, who last made headlines when he bullied a bunch of Christian students while lecturing them to not bully people, has struck once again, this time bullying a gay conservative group, calling them “house faggots” and making a crude and humiliating reference to anal sex, as if it was something to be ashamed of:
Dan Savage calls conservative LGBT group ‘house f*ggots’ over Romney endorsement
This morning, the conservative LGBT group GOProud released their entirely expected endorsement of GOP presidential contender Mitt Romney (R-MA). Executive Director Jimmy LaSalvia stated as part of their endorsement, “The truth is that gay people are living in the disastrous failed Obama economy too,” and cited Obama’s economic record as the reason for the group’s endorsement.
Sex advice columnist, provocateur and the brains behind the “It Gets Better” anti-bullying project Dan Savage took immediate exception to the groups endorsement, Tweeting,
“The GOP’s house faggots grab their ankles, right on cue: [link] …. Pathetic.”
While the co-founders of GOProud are by now used to taking heat from more liberal-minded members of the LGBT community, it’s rare that anyone as prominent as Savage has hurled insults like that. Co-founder Chris Barron, who left the organization last December amidst a minor scandal involving the outing of a gay member of Gov. Rick Perry’s (R-TX) campaign staff, addressed it on his blog this afternoon. “Apparently, faggot is an entirely appropriate slur as long as Dan Savage is slinging it and gay people who you don’t agree with are on the receiving end,” he wrote, adding, “It gets better my ass.”
Here’s a direct link to Savage’s Tweet.
The entire purpose of Dan Savage’s Obama-endorsed “It Gets Better” campaign is to reassure gay kids that bullies will stop taunting them with anti-gay slurs once they grow up.
But it turns out that’s not true: Bullies — in particular bullies like Dan Savage — will indeed continue to hurl anti-gay slurs at you once you grow up, calling you “faggot” and implying that you offer yourself up for anal sex to your abusers — if those bullies notice that you try to have an independent opinion and not cave in to peer pressure.
What flaming hypocrites like Dan Savage really mean by their so-called anti-bullying campaign is that only those gay kids who join Savage’s political clique will receive his protection; all you other gay kids will not only be abandoned to the bullies, but Savage himself will lead those bullies in trying to drive you to suicide.
Don’t forget “confessed committer of vote fraud” and “advocate for biological warfare” when reminding readers who Dan Savage really is.
Radical liberals only champion radical liberals. So unless you are a radical left gay person/woman/person of color/etc you are still the enemy and to be ridiculed.
Dan Savage joins NBC in having absolutely no credibility anymore.
This is one extremely damaged individual posing as a health crusader. He spreads his poison, like Obama, wherever he goes without the slightest awareness of how malignant he actually is.
“Typhoid Dan,” as it were.
Well, I for one am glad that those who think that Democratic policies lead naturally to a permanent “adolescent adult” mentality and the death oh the idea of any kind of definition of “gentleman” in general have once again proven to be wrong. Thank God.
Nice T-shirt, Dan. Get that in college?
I don’t know though. For a group that prides itself on being so suavely sophisticated as liberals do, Dan’s behavior sure does seem to be more like a high school kid than Carey Grant. But maybe I misunderstand.
Why is the twitter account named fakedansavage? Is it the real Dan Savage are a satire account?
I double-checked and it seems that that is his actual account.
What probably happened is that someone else legitimately signed up with the name dansavage long ago, and everyone began to ask the famous Dan Savage if that was him, and he kept having to say no, it’s not, so when he finally got around to signing up for Twitter himself, “dansavage” was already taken, so to be sarcastic he used “fakedansavage.”
At least that’s my best guess.
Or maybe for once he’s being honest, and admitting he’s a faker, especially when he’s trying to pass himself off as “tolerant”

The gay-rights movement has been working for decades to grab a monopoly on deciding what is or is not “hate,” “hate speech,” “hate crime,” etc. It is to the gay-rights lobby that we are indebted for this unlovely special-interest addition to our jurisprudence. “Anti-bullying” is merely a subdivision of the “hate” monopoly.
The Official Gay Movement jealously guards its role as oppression validator. Last year, a “gay softball league” in Seattle refused to permit bisexuals to participate, on the grounds they were not “sufficiently gay”—never mind that bisexuals have been the “B” in “LGBT” since forever, as a means of falsely inflating the gay-rights lobby’s claimed demographic.
With the possible exception of the Islamists—who have, ironically, copied the gay-rights playbook—the gay-rights movement is the greatest foe of free speech in America today.
Dan Savage seems to be setting himself up as the gay Al Sharpton. Both make money by doing nasty tricks for the media. Their pronouncements are simply tiresome at this point and also just plain wrong.
