What's great about it is that you see, the great struggle for gay people is that the politics is just not going to work for us.
Andrew Sullivan
Every generation is born into, for the most part, a heterosexual family.
Andrew Sullivan
Al Gore's problem, in my view, is that he never liked politics. He's actually deeply uncomfortable in it but felt he had to do it because of his father. He's much more comfortable in a private sector role and has, in fact, been much more successful in a private sector role, and I admire him for that.
Andrew Sullivan
I'm not going to sit around an pretend I'm not thinking things on my blog when I am thinking them and when I'm open to rebuttal.
Andrew Sullivan
You just have to keep going. I mean I think our job, my job, is to keep articulating that I exist and that there are lots of people like me exist and we just have no home.
Andrew Sullivan
Any president can start a war, and use the chaos of disorder that such a war creates as an indefinite argument for prolonging it. It's a war that keeps on giving. Failure means it's even more necessary to keep failing.
Andrew Sullivan
Blogging is to writing what extreme sports are to athletics: more free-form, more accident-prone, less formal, more alive. It is, in many ways, writing out loud.
Andrew Sullivan
There is something about hearing your president affirm your humanity that you don't know what effect it has until you hear it.
Andrew Sullivan
We currently have a government planning to go to Mars, heal broken marriages, and build bridges to nowhere - and also one that cannot wage a war competently, cannot respond to a hurricane adequately, and cannot enforce borders. Is it too much to ask that it get the basic things right before embarking on grandiose schemes?
Andrew Sullivan
It's only because you can now watch cheerfully biased Fox News that you begin to realize how cheerlessly biased CNN really is - and always was. Or CBS. Or ABC. Or the BBC.
Andrew Sullivan
Homosexuality is like the weather. It just is.
Andrew Sullivan
The most successful marriages, gay or straight, even if they begin in romantic love, often become friendships. It's the ones that become the friendships that last.
Andrew Sullivan
I can barely remember what I wrote yesterday, let alone 10 years ago.
Andrew Sullivan
Even if it's deep unhappiness, it's your unhappiness.
Andrew Sullivan
It is not an opinion that enhanced interrogation techniques are torture. It is a legal fact. And it is also a legal fact that the president is a war criminal.
Andrew Sullivan
Michael Moore: a man who never without an excuse for keeping murdering tyrants in power. But now he's supporting the man who bombed Milosevic into submission? How about an explanation, Mr Moore?
Andrew Sullivan
Homophobia: the fear that another man will treat you like you treat women.
Andrew Sullivan
The one man more responsible for destroying the Democratic centrist revival, for throwing away the Clinton legacy, and for suicidally pitching his party to the populist left was Al Gore
Andrew Sullivan
[Senator] Kerry [democrat MA] is emerging as the worst of all the viable Democratic candidates. He has the backbone of Clinton and the charm of Gore.
Andrew Sullivan
I actually bought the argument that if we democratized Iraq, we could create a space for venting some of the stuff that's going on in the Middle East in these autocratic regimes that is expressing itself through jihadism, because it has nowhere else to express itself.
