Andrew Sullivan
I believe that there are moments in sex that are so awesome that they actually reflect God.
Andrew Sullivan
The middle part of the country - the great red zone that voted for Bush - is clearly ready for war. The decadent Left in its enclaves on the coasts is not dead - and may well mount what amounts to a fifth column.
Andrew Sullivan
For me, God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit have always been my closest friends in this journey.
Andrew Sullivan
I've never been a partisan, I've never been a Republican, I've never been a Democrat, ever, which is why I was very frustrated being called a gay Republican when I never attached myself to that.
Andrew Sullivan
