HRC: Hillary Resists Clarity

You can ask, but the candidates probably won't tell.

And so does Obama.

In the recent wake of Gen. Peter Pace's redorkulous comments deeming homosexuality an "immoral act," our superstar candidates are tongue-tied.

First, Hillary sidesteps the question. Then, Obama pretends not to hear it. Edwards, well, he's a little worried about his family.

So, here we are, facing another election and watching it get tooth-and-nail between the candidates. Isn't it refreshing that the real issues - like gay sex and pride parades - aren't being washed out by insignificant distractions like that measly little war in Iraq, the polar division of our country, or global warming?
