Obama: The First Gay President
It was the spring of 2007, back when Barack Obama’s bid for the presidency seemed quixotic at best. I’d seen Obama speak to a crowd and was impressed but wanted to see if what I’d seen from afar held up under closer scrutiny. So I asked to attend a private fundraiser in a tony apartment in Georgetown. I promised not to write anything. I just wanted to see the man up close and get a better sense of him and his character. At one point in the question-and-answer session, a woman looked him square in the eyes with what can only be called maternal grit. “My son is gay,” she said, and the room went suddenly quiet. “I don’t understand why you don’t support his right to marry the person he loves. It’s so disappointing to me.” Obama, without losing eye contact for a second, told her: “I want full equality for your son - all the rights and benefits that marriage brings. I really do. But the word ‘marriage’ stirs up so much religious feeling. I think civil unions are the way to go. As long as they are equal.”
My heart sank. Was this obviously humane African-American actually advocating a “separate but equal” solution - a form of marital segregation like the one that made his own parents’ marriage a felony in many states when he was born? The sudden equivocation made no sense - except as pure political calculation. And yet it also felt strained, as if he knew it didn’t quite fit. He wanted equality but not marriage - but you cannot have one without the other. On this issue, Obama’s excruciating nonposition was essentially “Yes we can’t.”
And yet somehow, simply by the way he answered that mother’s question, I didn’t believe it. I thought he was struggling between political calculation and his core belief in civil rights. And it was then that I realized he was both: a cold, steely, ruthless, calculating politician who nonetheless wanted to do the right thing in the end.
Last week he did it — in a move whose consequences are simply impossible to judge.

No I am afraid , at least it is what I have read.
Matthew McConaughey is JFK and Minka Kelly is Jackie O in "The Butler"
ScreenDaily sat down with director Lee Daniels, who is promoting "The Paperboy" at the Cannes Film Festival. Daniels revealed that he has cast Minka Kelly (The Roommate) to play Jackie Kennedy in his next film, called "The Butler," which already stars Matthew McConaughey as John F Kennedy.

However it seems that MM dropped out of the movie.

However it seems that MM dropped out of the movie.
See? Even MM has standards!
He has declared that is not enough good to play J.Kennedy, and he is right LOL.
How nice of him :)
What homework?
Jake Minka dinner tweets, I guess.
Same old.
9:56 AM - PG, SK and OMG are still playing stupid about Jake Minka dinner tweets? LOL
Yas,
PG said.....
And guess why that would be. Because you know you have nothing. I can shoot that tweet full of holes. Ready and waiting.
And if it doesn't come, then I'm going to bring it on here myself and we're going to have a little PowerPoint presentation on how tweets are planted by civilians.
stupefied and delirium of omnipotence, deleterious coupled I would say
how tweets are planted by civilians
Stupid PG,
only tweets you don't like are "planted by civilians" - never tweets you can use for J&A&BTs fiction.
Hi PeeGee!!!
10:21 AM - Thanks for confirming that I was right :)
Why are OMGers so TERRIFIED by Minka?
They forgot their "Jake is married to Austin"? LOL!
LOL:)
OMG is synonym for highly selective memory loss!

That is wonderful news for Austin. A chance for the big guy to show what he's got in a mature and layered performance. Love the provocative theme. There are definitely great signs in the wind. Jake showing up for a Rufus concert another one indeed.
And, yes 1D is a lot of fun. They are fresh, energic, cheeky, and pushing the edge of that envelope when it comes to expressing feelings that boy bands in particular had to squash completely. Their supporters are media savvy and amazingly supportive. But, I agree Tom. Jake and Austin will always be first in my heart. I am so thrilled to see some liberating changes on the way. It's been a long road, with many bends and curves, but they seem to be headed in the right one direction that they've been traveling toward since their deep and abiding love story began ten years ago.
Methodical Muser, is under effect of heavy drugs to me
Yep. Good drugs, make you feel optimistic!
There are definitely great signs in the wind. Jake showing up for a Rufus concert another one indeed.
Crazy and stupid.
Jake spending time with K'naan and seeing Rufus again is "great sign",
Jake choosing to work 2.000 miles away from Austin doesn't matter.
There are definitely great signs in the wind
which great signs?
Austin hitting that girl at this concert, or following on twitter models of underwear? Jake with Minka or K-naan or both? Jake in Brodway for months? have I lost something?
We have NO idea what you're talking about!
@11:07 AM We have posted almost the same message! but you for first, I had not seen it! lol
Great minds think alike! :)
LOL:) Very true!!! :)
Does anyone remember when the first sighting/twitter mentioning (or whatever) of Jake and Minka occurred? It seems as if it’s been happening for a while now.
I can recall only one mention of Jake and Minka (were there two?), probably having dinner in the same restaurant, not together.
I think around one month one month and half ago, before Jake departed for Canada, there have been two different tweets, one of a girl of NY, the other of the Mother of An other girl that was casually in NY That day
can recall only one mention of Jake and Minka (were there two?), probably having dinner in the same restaurant, not together
LIAR
PG is that you?
She is mostly in LA, Jake is / was in New York, he's having dinners and lunches with friends or on his own ... I don't see anything happening.
1:32 PM - ????? What is a lie / false in that sentence???????????????????????????
1:34 PM - Please tell us what is a lie / false in 1:29 PM comment or CUT THE CRAP.
Do I have to go to look for the tweets and to bring here them?
Tell me now. because if I have to discuss on the facts I don't take me the trouble
For fucking sake 1:41 PM, LEARN TO READ: "can recall only one mention of Jake and Minka (were there two?)".
Please repost tweets.
They are two. one clearly say that they were together, the girl of the second tweet also says: Sorry girls, spotted Jake Gyllenhaal and Minka Kelly having dinner together
the girl of the second tweet also says: Sorry girls, spotted Jake Gyllenhaal and Minka Kelly having dinner together

Oh, thanks for finding it so quickly :)
I was just coming back with the same tweet - thinking I would probably have to do my own homework!
I think it was posted on May 3rd and may be the first sighting (though for some reason I still feel there was something earlier but I can't quit recall and can't be bothered to research any further right now).
Posting, I have just posted the second of the girl of NY,

in your dreams, stupid,Or do we want to speak of the theory Jake and Austin stopped working for devoting themselves to the family?
or that other, Jake in Portland with Busy for Austin when were at least 4 photos of him in NY?
But my favorite is this: Austin in London with Jake, when the photos before of Dan K,then those of M Frost, date 4/5 February they clearly show, that while Jake was in London, Austin was in Los Angeles. Does"Il Covo restaurant" remember yourself something???

I apologize to the other poster if I have missed of delicacy it is not my style and I am sorry, but I don't like to have called liar, if I am wrong I admit it but I don't say lies.
I believe that it is not the place for me anymore, good evening.
Since you didn't post tweet dates - we have only TWO Jake and Minka dinner sightings, from May 4 and June 2, right?
if I am wrong I admit
In that case maybe you should admit that you made up "together" just to have a point :)

Oops! LOL!
Another FUCK YOU from Austin! :)
I think the first tweet (by Kiersten Paige) was posted on May 3rd (didn’t see the actual tweet but it was re-posted on a fan board on the 3rd) – but I guess the post on May 4th could be talking about the same dinner (so 2 tweets but same event + the June 2nd).
I doubt the recent (NY radio?) gossip was based on old tweets though so maybe they have new information (perhaps from the weekend?). Wish they gave more details - but I guess if there is anything to it, more will leak in time.
And sure – I believe he might be dating her, but then I’ll buy anything! I definitely think he is dating/sexing someone in NYC, with the way he commutes every weekend.
Not all actors are created equal, and Jake Gyllenhaal proved it this weekend.
The 31-year-old "Source Code" star spent part of Sunday night in Luminato's VIP tent in Toronto's David Pecaut Square, watching Rufus Wainwright perform his new album, "Out of the Game."
Luminato's Interactive Marketing Manager told Omg! Canada that Gyllenhaal and Canadian musician K'Naan (who also performed at the festival) were in the tent for "a third, maybe" of the show and spent the rest of the time on the grass with the rest of us, including Gyllenhaal's current co-star, French actress Melanie Laurent, who Omg! Canada watched sway to the music and chill out with a friend.
The 29-year-old "Beginners" star wasn't particularly close to the stage but she didn't seem upset that she wasn't rubbing shoulders with Wainwright's fiancé (and Luminato art director) Jorn Weisbordt and K'Naan like Gyllenhaal was (before the show he had dinner with the Canuck rapper at his favourite T.O. restaurant, Terroni -- they even waited 15 minutes for a seat!)
Laurent and Gyllenhaal are both in town filming Denis Villeneuve's "An Enemy," about a man who finds his double. Production is expected to go on until July, so Gyllenhaal has ample time to make it up to his leading lady for leaving her in the cheap seats, so to speak.

Jake and Minka - THE REAL question: who's PR is responsible for this bullshit?
January 12, 2012
Jake Gyllenhaal tried -- and failed! -- to add Minka Kelly to his little black book.
In the new issue of Us Weekly (on stands Friday), a source claims that Kelly, 31, "declined" an invitation from Gyllenhaal, 31, when he asked her on a date last fall.
But it wasn't because the Source Code actor didn't measure up: at the time, the Charlie's Angels star had split with her on-and-off beau, Derek Jeter, 37, and "was trying to patch things up," the source explains.
Kelly's willpower paid off: she reconciled with the New York Yankees player in December.
http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/minka-kelly-rejected-jake-gyllenhaal-2012121
Wish they gave more details - but I guess if there is anything to it, more will leak in time.
Or more would leaked during those 4 weeks (May 3 - June 2) if they were "dating".

If Jake is dating someone he doesn't want people to know - dating females is good PR.
Looks like Minka is spending more time in LA than NYC.
And looks like she is dating someone else:

Persistent Jake Gyllenhaal dating Minka Kelly
June 13, 2012 11:18PM
You have to hand it to Jake Gyllenhaal. The actor did not take “no” for an answer, after he first asked Minka Kelly to go out with him. According to sources close to the actor, Kelly finally agreed — and now the two have been quietly dating for the past couple of months. — B.Z.
http://www.suntimes.com/entertainment/13168074-421/persistent-jake-gyllenhaal-dating-minka-kelly.html
According to sources close to the actor...
Could Jake be stupid like that? He didn't learn anything from "dating" Taylor Swift?
Ha! Minka troll may have been right!!
Right about what? Jake bearding with Minka? :)
Is Jake that desperate? Who will be next, Snooki? lol
Well the US Weekly have them broken up already (OMG had a scan of the story)! Seems maybe it was over before it really began (or maybe USW is wrong).
I think Minka is absolutely gorgeous though – so I really can’t see how Jake wanting to date her is any sign of desperation (but then I don't subscribe to the Bearding Theory).
What? Bitch please, I have my standards!
I think Minka is absolutely gorgeous
LMAO! Thanks for a laugh! :)

Minka is good looking, but someone you wouldn't notice on the street.

Hmm... looks like Jake and Minka just wanted some cheap publicity.
P.S. It also means that Jake doesn't date / "date" Lea.
Oh come on! Yes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder - but you can’t seriously claim that this is not an attractive woman by most people’s standards:

IMO the laughable thing is that you refuse to acknowledge the obvious.
Sorry, Minka isn't "gorgeous" by any standards.
5:12 AM - It is OBVIOUS that you can't read: "Minka is absolutely gorgeous" is laughable, no one said that she doesn't look good.
I really can’t see how Jake wanting to date her is any sign of desperation (but then I don't subscribe to the Bearding Theory)
OK, so what's your theory about Jake being single for so long, why can't he find a girlfriend?

Exclusive: Jake Gyllenhaal Had Secret Hookup With Minka Kelly
Persistence paid off for Jake Gyllenhaal -- at least for awhile.
The actor recently had some dates with his crush Minka Kelly, who had turned him down cold when he first asked her out last fall. "Minka wasn't into Jake when he first pursued her," a mutual pal of the actor, 31, and the Friday Night Lights alum, 32 tells Us Weekly.
Instead, Kelly spent the winter romancing serial dater Wilmer Valderrama, 32. But when the affair fizzled in late April, says the friend, Kelly "decided to give Jake another chance."
Alas, the spark never quite caught fire, says a second source. "It was never serious, and it's over now."
http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/jake-gyllenhaal-had-secret-hookup-with-minka-kelly-2012146
Jake "Heterosexual" Gyllenhaal gets another "girlfriend" without going anywhere near her lady parts.
Actress gets publicity.
And all that for only 2 dinners!
Well done!
And all that for only 2 dinners!
Well, sex for a price usually makes one a ho.
Whoring comes in many different forms.
When one is whoring for big money people usually "forget" that amount of money doesn't change the substance.
Right. :)
The entire concept is sexist and misogynistic.
Stating the obvious - celebrities whoring in order to make more money - is "sexist and misogynistic"??????
The word origins. Putting monetary value on women like chattel.
So what? The same word - whore - is used for all sexes.
whore (hôr, hr)
n.
1. A prostitute.
2. A person considered sexually promiscuous.
3. A person considered as having compromised principles for personal gain.
Just because it applies to both sexes doesn't make it any more appropriate. You've copied the politically correct definition, but it doesn't mean it demeans women any less.
You've copied the politically correct definition, but it doesn't mean it demeans women any less.
That is NOT politically correct definition,
that is dictionary definition of the word.
You can't twist and change word's meaning just to push your agenda.
Dictionaries are not social treatises and do not make moral claims. You'll only get the simplest definition and not always the same one from dictionary to dictionary. For example, the second definition is wrong. I'm sure if you posted the entire definition and etymology it would be quite revealing, but you chose not to prove your own agenda.
Wrong, whore is word used for "person considered sexually promiscuous" all the time.
Who are you to change English dictionary???
How huge is your ego???
whore
noun
derogatory
a prostitute. a promiscuous woman.
http://oxforddictionaries.com/definition/whore?q=whore
4:34 PM,
Hollywood is full of cheap female whores, I'm sure you know that.
Don't blame others because you don't like facts.
Just because it applies to both sexes doesn't make it any more appropriate.
Huh?
It is very appropriate to call all whores whores. Right and appropriate :)

The craziness that comes along with balancing schoolwork with film work is something that surely must be somewhat soothed by working with a trio of the hottest actors in the business. In the last few years, Gadon has been leading lady to Michael Fassbender and Robert Pattinson, and she’s currently playing opposite Jake Gyllenhaal. I couldn’t resist asking her which heartthrob was the most fun to work with.
““I’m going to have a great memoir,” she sighed. “[But] I don’t know if I can say – that’s so mean! I’d say I like them all for very different reasons. I feel like I’ve learned so much from all of them that it’s so hard to say which one would be the best. Also, you’re playing different characters – you’re different people with them – and so, it’s weird, it’s hard…I can’t answer!” she laughs, and turns her chair away in mock-embarrassment.
I don’t blame her. I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t be able to choose either.

ANASTASIA‽ @ANASTASIACIMINO
My Jake Gyllenhaal boy called me just to ask me on a date. Like instead of texting, he CALLED ME. Is he perfect?
Hollywood is full of cheap female whores, I'm sure you know that.
MK would say, if the Lucite heel fits, wear it!

Why do you mind Jake going to someone's wedding? It's not like he would be with Austin anyway.
Elise Magnini @liseynicole

Hmmm... Let's be fair, we never saw Jake doing anything fatherly, lol.
Hey, he leads at Soul Cycle every once and awhile
right? That's like teaching a kid how to ride a bike! :::: pulling at straws:::: ;)
Well, OK, teaching young girls with big tits and no bra how to properly ride a bike is kind of fatherly.
LOL!

4h ago
Roundabout Theatre Company has announced additional casting for the American Premiere of Nick Payne’s If There Is I Haven’t Found It Yet, directed by Michael Longhurst. If There Is I Haven’t Found It Yet will feature Michelle Gomez as “Fiona,” Jake Gyllenhaal as “Terry” and Brían F. O’Byrne as “George.”
The design team includes Beowulf Boritt (Sets), Susan Hilferty (Costumes), Natasha Katz (Lights) and Obadiah Eaves (Original Music & Sound).
If There Is I Haven’t Found It Yet will begin performances August 24, 2012 and officially open on September 20, 2012 at the Harold and Miriam Steinberg Center for Theatre / Laura Pels Theatre (111 West 46th Street). This is a strictly limited engagement of 13-weeks through November 25, 2012. One additional cast member will be announced shortly.
Cool! Wouldn't mind seeing Jake on Broadway :)
That's off-Broadway--NOT Broadway.
Same difference.
Off-Broadway theatre is a term for a professional venue in New York City with a seating capacity between 100 and 499, and for a specific production of a play, musical or revue that appears in such a venue, and which adheres to related trade union and other contracts.[1] These theatres are smaller than Broadway theatres.
Adam Feldman @FeldmanAdam
Jake Gyllenhaal will be Off-Broadway in August. Need I recuse myself from reviewing him because of our (imagined) past sexual relationship?
