New Reality TV Show
The Race for the White House: A New Reality Show
That's the title of the latest entry from Libby Post on PageOneQ, a silly satiracal piece that makes light of the struggle for gay rights while conveying an important message.
The Show: Hosted by Gore, Coulter, and Huffington, the Presidential candidates would be put to the ultimate test. The Republicans would be thrown into a simulated foxhole with three other soldiers, two of whom would be SLDN clients-either booted for being gay or retired and came out. They would live through 48 hours of combat simulation and have to figure out which soldier was the straight one.
The Dems would have to pair up as same-sex couples, Hillary with either Coulter or Huffington, and would be sent to New Jersey to face the trials of civil unions and how much they don't mean to the state and employers.

Well I didn’t in any way imply that the underlying issue wasn’t important. I thought it was a great piece and appreciate you taking the time to write it.<BR><BR>-Jason

Thanks for picking up the piece—don’t know if I would say it was silly, satirical yes, silly no. Humor is always a good way to make a point. <BR><BR>I’ve written about Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell and SDLN quite a bit. The work you do is important—nothing to make light of there.
