When conservatives talk about judicial activism, they have in mind a variety of Supreme Court decisions — legalizing abortion, hindering the death penalty, allowing flag-burning and preventing officially sponsored prayer in public schools. All these, they believe, ignored the plain words or the original meaning of the text.

But there is another decision that fits any definition of a liberal, activist approach. It came in a 2003 case, Lawrence v. Texas, involving two men who were prosecuted after being caught by police having sex in a private bedroom.

In a 1986 challenge to sodomy laws, the Supreme Court derided the notion that the Constitution protects “a fundamental right upon homosexuals to engage in sodomy.” But this time, it ruled such statutes unconstitutional.

How come? Because the government may not regulate private, consensual, noncommercial sex among adults, straight or gay. “Their right to liberty under the Due Process Clause gives them the full right to engage in their conduct without intervention of the government,” wrote Justice Anthony Kennedy.

At the time, the outcome was controversial. Conservative commentator David Frum said it would have been “unimaginable to the Constitution’s authors.” The conservative Family Research Council lamented that “judicial activists have used their fertile imagination to create rights that simply don’t exist in the Constitution,” and “imposed their own moral judgments in place of state legislatures.”

The decision bore the telltale signs of liberal activism: It did not rest on any clear provision of the Constitution. It did not match up with the laws in effect at the time of the nation’s founding. It discarded well-established precedents. And it created a social policy strongly favored by liberals.

But after the initial denunciations, something odd happened: The decision vanished from public debate.

Roe v. Wade led to endless battles over abortion laws. The school prayer decisions have been defied in many districts. But once the sodomy laws were gone, they were forgotten. No one mourned them, and no one tried to bring them back.

Well, almost no one. The Texas GOP’s new platform says unabashedly, “We oppose the legalization of sodomy. We demand that Congress exercise its authority granted by the U.S. Constitution to withhold jurisdiction from the federal courts from cases involving sodomy.”

Last year, the Oklahoma Republican Party came out against “the elimination of laws against sodomy.” The Montana GOP agrees.

That’s right. They want to allow the states to put gay and lesbian couples in jail for something (oral or anal sex) that millions of heterosexual couples do all the time.

But this sentiment is not exactly sweeping the country — even the red states. GOP senators had the chance to ask Kagan what she thought of the sodomy decision, and not one of them did. No one had the slightest desire to denounce or even revisit the court’s ruling.

There are a few possible explanations for that. Maybe Republicans think sodomy laws are impossible to justify and secretly don’t mind that the court struck them down. But that amounts to favoring judicial activism if you like the results, which is exactly what they lambaste liberals for doing.

Or maybe it’s because, though they would prefer for the court to uphold sodomy laws, they fear the political consequences of saying so. But that suggests that when the court’s activists imposed their moral preferences, they were also “imposing” those of the American people.

Or maybe they realize that laws trampling liberties that most people take for granted can’t be squared with the spirit of freedom and equality that defines the Constitution — even if the letter of the Constitution has nothing obvious to say on the particular matter at hand.

The scene opens with Chuck Rockwood rimming Jayson’s sweet hole while Sage is fucking Jayson. Chuck alternates between hole, and raw dick. Then Chuck literally sits on Jayson’s face while Sage continues to fuck Jayson and  Sage and Chuck kiss while Jayson is lost in the whole experience…

The sex gets hotter as Chuck slips his thick big dick into Jayson’s silky raw hole. Jayson turns around and cleans off Sage’s cock and get a taste of his own raw hole (ass-to-mouth / ATM is one of his favorite things to do). Jayson shows off his bottoming skills when he takes a ride on Sage’s prick cowboy style while eating out Chuck’s hairy ass. Chuck lifts Jayson off of Sage’s dick, bends him over and throws his own thick meat into Jayson’s lucky hole. Sage and Chuck alternate – tag teaming Jayson’s ass…

Jayson’s greedy hole is eventually too much for Sage, and he shoots the 1st of his 2 loads on and into Jayson’s ass. Sage then tells Jayson to stay bent over and he leans down felches his own cum from Jayson’s hole and spits the cum onto Chuck’s raging hard on.

Needless to say Chuck uses natures best lube and gives Jayson a good fuck. Before long Chuck blows a huge load that shoots like a fountain out of his dick. The load blankets Jayson’s entire ass and back. Chuck rubs his fingers in the cum on Jayson’s back and feeds it Jayson to lick clean.

Jayson then kneels down and cleans off Chuck cummy cock while he jerks off and shoots a huge gay cumload… Chuck then beats his raw cock and shoots a 2nd load into Jayson’s mouth and on his face…

To close the scene all three of these raunchy pigs share, swap, and snowball each other’s loads…

Why are Jesse Archer, Mike Ruiz, Jack Mackenroth and Perez Hilton having trouble keeping their clothes on these days? Because artist Paul Richmond has enlisted their modeling services for his upcoming exhibit of male pin-up paintings called CHEESECAKE. The show, which will feature oil paintings of fourteen gay male celebrities, opens at the Center on Halsted in Chicago this June.

According to Richmond, “It intrigues me that it was almost exclusively women who were depicted as hapless victims of comical wardrobe malfuncions in early pin-up art. Those ladies couldn’t even walk down the street without their skirts blowing up or their underwear falling down (or both!). Meanwhile, male pin-ups by artists like Tom of Finland were generally afforded more control over their sexy shenanigans. I believe gravity and other forces conspiring to rob people of their clothing should take an equal-opportunity approach.”

I love the book covers!

A cute boy sucking a cuter boys cock

A cute boy admiring a hot male crotch

Here’s what the website has to say about these two: Even before Alex can get his pants off, he has that dick in his mouth. Ryan isn’t about to complain as he gets his rock hard cock swallowed. Alex makes himself comfortable on his knees, as he makes love to that beautiful cock Ryan has to offer. Ryan then begins to feel left out as he pushes Alex off his cock and gets him to stand up so he can have some dick of his own. Alex is rock hard as Ryan pulls off his briefs. He feverishly begins to savor that dick. Alex holds his head by a fistful of blond locks and fucks his face. Ryan doesn’t mind at all, as he shoves as much of Alex’ meat down his throat as he can. This is going to be intense. These two work each other up as they lick, suck, and continue making out. Alex is back on Ryan’s cock again as both of their tongues continue to roam freely on their hairless canvases.

They won’t be able to contain their desire for long. Alex soon gets up and plops himself on the couch, looking at Ryan, who immediately knows what to do. He straddles Alex, slides on a condom before aiming that California cock at that hot ass of his, and takes every inch of it. Ryan finally has that thick cock where he’s wanted it all along. Alex is only more than willing to let him have it. He grinds that dick of his up into that hot ass as Ryan works that magic. They make out as they fuck each other silly. Soon, Alex needs more control. He bends Ryan over and starts pounding that hot ass doggy style. Alex is soon slamming that thick dick deep into Ryan as Ryan just moans and begs for more. Alex holds Ryan still with one hand as he continues to fuck that sweet ass. They then migrate over into missionary position, as we see even more action involving Alex’ throbbing cock plowing into Ryan’s sweet ass. He fucks his ass harder and deeper as they both get closer to exploding. Once they are near climax, Alex pulls out, and they both stroke their cocks off. Alex is the first to nut as he blows his wad all over Ryan’s cock and balls, causing him to explode once his fist gets a warm lube infusion as Alex explodes all over it. Whew.

But – I still can’t maintain a lasting relationship – however, I think that’s because I’m kind of an ass, not because I love the cock.

http://www.livescience.com/culture/5-Myths-About-Gays-100510.html

“Gay people have been accused of being unfit parents, more likely to be pedophiles, unable to sustain lasting relationships, and worse. But research shows these and other myths just aren’t based in fact.”

—

Another stereotype is that gay relationships aren’t as real or long-lasting as heterosexual ones.

Research has found that to be untrue. Long-term studies of gay couples indicate that their relationships are just as stable as straight pairings.

“There is considerable evidence that both lesbians and gay men want to be in strong, committed relationships [and] are successful in creating these partnerships, despite difficulties created by social prejudice, stigma, and the lack of legal recognition for same-sex relationships in most parts of the U.S.,” said UCLA psychologist Anne Peplau, co-author of a book chapter on the subject published in the 2007 Annual Review of Psychology.

For example, John Gottman, a University of Washington emeritus professor of psychology, and his colleagues collected data from homosexual couples across 12 years, and found that about 20 percent had broken up over that time. That rate projected over a 40-year period is slightly lower than the divorce rate for first marriages among heterosexual couples over the same time span, according to the study published in 2003 in the Journal of Homosexuality.

“The overall implication of this research is that we have to shake off all of the stereotypes of homosexual relationships and have more respect for them as committed relationships,” Gottman said.

In fact, the same study found that gay couples tend to be better at resolving conflicts and encouraging positive emotions.

The pairing of Marty Alonso and Alex Clifford on this week’s Bare Adventures video is sorta unusual… Both are jocks, but Marty looks like he has some skinhead tendencies to him where Alex looks more like an Italian guy from “Jersey Shore” – a masculine, “regular guy” who also likes to lay out and get a tan…

I used to think skinheads were rough and tumble – sorta like the white version of “thugs”. But then I realized many of them have a strong submissive streak to them and that seems to be the case with Marty. The video starts out with him naked and the best word to describe him is “compliant”. He just lets Alex do whatever he wants and totally lets Alex take the lead. It’s sorta cool to see a bottom be so submissive. And needless to say, when Alex wants to fuck him bareback there are no complains from Marty – I think he’d let Alex do whatever he wants…

Ruh Roh, looks like the republican politician who paid Rekers $120,000 to be an anti-gay expert might catch some of the shrapnel of the hypocrisy bomb.

http://www.ontopmag.com/article.aspx?id=5709&MediaType=1&Category=26

Ex-gay leader George Rekers’ gay sex scandal has leaked into the gubernatorial campaign of Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum.

McCollum, considered the leading candidate to capture the Republican nomination, personally urged the state to hire Rekers at a cost of $120,000 to testify as an expert witness in favor of a gay adoption ban.

Rekers of North Miami is the 61-year-old social conservative exposed by the Miami New Times as having hired a male prostitute off the pageviews of gay website Rentboy.com. The 20-year-old escort, named Lucien by the paper, but whose real name is Jo-Vanni Roman, claims he provided Rekers with daily body rubs in the nude during their 10-day European vacation, adding that Rekers liked having his anus rubbed by the younger man.

In a 2007 letter to the Department to Children and Families (DCF), McCollum urged then DCF Secretary Bob Butterworth that his legal team “strongly” recommended hiring Rekers, according to the Florida Tribune.

“They believe that this expert and his testimony are necessary to ensure a successful result in this case,” he wrote.

The agency initially balked at the cost of hiring Rekers, adding that one witness – Walter Schumm, a professor of family studies at Kansas State University – would suffice.

“Dr. Schumm is a good expert, but his areas of expertise are different from Dr. Rekers,” wrote McCollum. “Our attorneys handling this case have searched long and hard for other expert witnesses with comparable expertise to Dr. Rekers and have been unable to identify any who would be available for this case.”

Rekers is a prominent ex-gay leader and social conservative. He is a Baptist minister who sits on the board of the National Association for Research & Therapy of Homosexuality (NARTH), a group that believes gay men and lesbians can – and should – alter their sexuality. He is also a founder of the socially conservative Family Research Council headed by Tony Perkins, an opponent of gay rights. And he’s also the author of numerous books on sexuality, including Growing Up Straight: What Families Should Know About Homosexuality and Your Child’s Sexual Identity.

McCollum has since reversed his opinion on Rekers, telling the Tribune that he “wouldn’t do it again.”

Since the original story broke, a second gay escort has stepped forward to claim Rekers paid him for gay sex. Former stripper, escort and adult star Carl Sheperd (Chaz) alleges Rekers paid him $150 for “vanilla sex” at the Hyatt Regency Hotel at Chicago’s O’Hare airport in 1992.
