clarification

ok, so at it turns out Ian McKellen's shirt was photoshoped (the left). Being a gay man and prominent activist the actual shirt (the right) makes more sense for a rally against the pope's visit to London. I suppose I knew that, but it was good enough for me to suspend disbelief. It would do injustice to his cause to neglect the actual shirt Sir Ian was wearing.



Still, you gotta love that the White Wizard, Mithrandir, the slayer of the balrog, You-Shall-Not-Pass!, Gandalf himself: totally gay. And the mutant Master of Metal, the man who once actually tore the adamantium from Wolverine's bones, supervillian extraordinaire: not just a member of homo superior. He's not shy about it either. He's been out since before Neil Patrick Harris was on Doogie Howser.
This blog is not about my politics, but I have done some research on the issue of gay marriage in the United States and this chart displays a simple breakdown of my findings:

I figured he had both. And I'd bet the Pope wouldn't like Gandalf or Magneto, seeing as they are 10 times more powerful then he is. (maybe more depending on your beliefs)

that comment is so good that I feel that it is wasted on my blog.
