The new Hot Air redesign?

posted at 10:05 pm on February 24, 2010 by Allahpundit

InstaGlenn linked it, GayPatriot posted it, and the GOProud folks were laughing about it last night on Twitter. Yes, we’ve had many, many, many, many, many defenses of gay conservatives lately. Thanks to Sarjex for illustrating that through the magic of ‘shop.

Ironically, there hasn’t been anything gay-related on the front page today. Let’s change that now! Exit quotation:

GOProud’s LaSalvia is a strong backer of Cheney, and along with others in his organization is backing a “Draft Cheney 2012″ Web site. He says he agrees with the former vice president on his support for state-by-state same-sex marriage as well as Cheney’s positions on national security and other issues.

“The greatest threat to gay and lesbian people across the globe is the spread of radicalized Islam, and the Obama administration playing footsie with [Iranian President Mahmoud] Ahmadinejad or any other brutal dictator is not good for gay people,” he said.

Glad someone’s saying it.

I think it’s appropriate.

Run with it.

David2.0 on February 24, 2010 at 10:10 PM

I love the caption for the front page photo….. FABULOUS !

Oh I love Hot Air’s “redesign.” It’s a hot mess!

Hello, the reason I’m pro-life is right there on the “Palin” thread.

Suddenly the Hotair tag line, “Get your fill” has a whole new and deeply disturbing meaning.

Here’s a ghey robot I’m sure you could use AP.

Dr.Cwac.Cwac on February 24, 2010 at 10:14 PM

The page mock-up reminds me of a story my friend told me once.

Apparently, there’s a secondhand clothing store in the LA area called the Out of the Closet Boutique, or something along those lines.

The byline?

…”Donations taken in rear.”

Is it safe to say that the new HotAir is “flaming”?

Dr.Cwac.Cwac on February 24, 2010 at 10:15 PM

I thought this site already existed. It’s called “HillBuzz.”

darii on February 24, 2010 at 10:16 PM

Nothing against the conservative gay community, but I prefer “Behind the Green Door” instead of Back Door or the Pink Room…..
NOT THAT THERE’S ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT!

JeffinOrlando on February 24, 2010 at 10:17 PM

HHAHAHAHAHAH IS MARCO HOTTER THAN SCOTT. Even a guy who feels like I do about Marco cant help but laugh at that one.

Squid Shark on February 24, 2010 at 10:17 PM

LOL!

Proper ways to teabag!

John the Libertarian on February 24, 2010 at 10:17 PM

So, if Hot Air is now all teh ghey all teh time, what angle does that add to your Beta male obession, AP?

darii on February 24, 2010 at 10:17 PM

ROFLMAO….

Also, anyone chiming in with an “AP comes out of the closet” comment hasn’t been with the site long enough.

trailortrash on February 24, 2010 at 10:23 PM

OT in a way, and not as light hearted as it should be: I have many gay and lesbian clients, have an adored first cousin who is in a committed and long-term relationship, and recently, had an interesting discussion (that ended up being–civilly–political) with a lifelong friend who is a lesbian. Needless to say, she is Uber-liberal while I am off-the-charts conservative.
I really got to thinking why more gays and lesbians aren’t more conservative. The meme that conservatives are anti-gay because they (for the most part)don’t support gay marraige is a crock.
Since conservatives are much more supportive of individual freedom and choice, seems to me a natural magnet.
It all comes back to that pesky reality that the media portray us Bible-thumpin’, gun-totin’ neandrathals who have no patience (therefore)compassion for any other viewpoint, and want the gay community to “switch or die!” Puleeze! Can some of you gay conservatives help us fight this perception??? Y’all are pretty darned quiet, except among your fellow conservatives.

Let’s quit dickin’ around.

Where have all these gay conservatives come from?

Where were the “gay conservatives” for Bush?

Where were the “gay conservatives” for McCain?

A bunch of blacks get together and vote down gay marraige amendments in a few states in 2008, and all of a sudden sodomites are replaying old Reagan speeches? Give me a break!

Hell hath no fury like a man who is attracted to another man…and they are both scorned.

Why don’t the gays stop being parasites and create the “Fag Party”? Attitudes are changing, don’t ya know? Every poll shows that(rolls eyes).

Keep pushing the gay thing, doofpundit and others. There’s far more social conservative voters than homosexuals, and certainly than homosexual conservatives. If you think you’re going to insult those social conservatives into “getting in line” and supporting the party and forgetting about the moral issues, you’re in for a surprise.

I have no doubt as this continues, the social conservatives will just stop voting or vote for a 3P candidate. Yes, you may insult them or hate them for doing this, but you don’t understand that morals/values are what they vote on, and calling them names like jetboy and others do is not going to change their minds.

TTheoLogan on February 24, 2010 at 10:27 PM

The new compensation package has a paid/click clause so… AP will turn to what’s worked … Sarah, Anti-religion banter and Joe the Plumber. Oh boy.

Humorously, Excitable Chucky Johnson seemed to have a problem with all the gay posts. As usual, he didn’t get why real conservatives would support gays being gays (freedom) but no gay marriage.
