In reference to DeSnide's &  DeSlippery's characteristic protest:

 

DeSnide is very adept at using innuendo:

 

 

  This is the second year in a row Pallone comes to Asbury to kiss
Barney Frank's ring....I don't want to think about where Barney Frank wears his ring....
/shudders...I can't make the Baronet tonight. I need a photo for my column.
Will pay cash. ...Photo of Frank Pallone and Barney Frank together: $50.00....Photo of them kissing hello: $100.00....Photo of them kissing on the lips: Priceless!


Dan referred to the above as  "snide" anti-gay remarks, but

 

DeSlippery is very adept at backpedaling:

 

 

 I told you people today wear rings in odd place: lip, nostril, ears. I'll give you a 4th: eyebrows. Pallone kissing anyone on the nostril would make me shudder - say for instance Nancy Pelosi....Accordingly, I made the joke that it would make me shudder (would
that not make you shudder?)....There is nothing above that is anti-gay....HOW YOU FOUND SOMETHING "GAY" IN ANY OF THIS
 
 
DeSlippery claims he is merely being funny: "I made the joke": 
 
He should learn from the masters who are up front when they lampoon.
 
E.g., Bill Maher:  New Rule: The next Republican National Convention must be held in a giant closet. Every week, there's a new gay Republican outed. I have a feeling that big tent they're always talking about is in their pants! There are so many Republicans in the closet, their symbol shouldn't be an elephant; it should be a moth!
 
 
 
 
Cordiali saluti,

You are getting upset because I did answer every question.

The topic from my first post was about Pallone turning down 8
invitations in a row to help Asbury kids, but has come here 2 years
in a row to see Barney Frank (I have a problem with that - too bad
you don't). That's a knock against Pallone, not Barney Frank.

The imagry I used of Pallone kissing Barney's ring you have already
picked up on as metaphorical for kissing the Pope's ring. Using that
very common literary device of metaphor, elevating Barney Frank to
the status of the Pope in Pallone's mind while he ignores Asbury
children is to highlight his lack of priorites. That is in
furtherance of the topic - Pallone ignore's Asbury children. Again
nothing against Barney Frank there.

You asked where I thought Barney could wear his ring that would make
me shudder at the thought of a kiss there. I did answer - I told
you people today wear rings in odd place: lip, nostril, ears. I'll
give you a 4th: eyebrows. Pallone kissing anyone on the nostril
would make me shudder - say for instance Nancy Pelosi.

Accordingly, I made the joke that it would make me shudder (would
that not make you shudder?).

There is nothing above that is anti-gay.

YOU ARE DUCKING DAN. I answered every question and stated it again
above.

I ASKED YOU REPEATEDLY HOW YOU FOUND SOMETHING "GAY" IN ANY OF THIS
AND YOU WON'T ANSWER! D-u-c-k-i-n-g!

You can call into Maureen's show so long as you can find someone to
dial the phone for you.

I won't be able to stop guys like you from portraying me falsely.
