Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Thursday, May 07, 2009

Actor David Ogden Stiers, who portrayed the doctor Charles Emerson Winchester III on the sitcom M*A*S*H, recently told a gossip blogger that he's gay -- his first public admission of the fact. "I wish to spend my life's twilight being just who I am," he said.

No effing joke. Was he the last one to figure that out?

well, stop the freakin' presses for this titillating shocker. I mean, who could have foreseen...

Well heck, there were people right up to the end that insisted Liberace was merely "flamboyant".

sar - FF!

It's been said in the first couple of threads . . . I won't repeat it

SanAn - when I was a little kid, there was an older neighbor lady who had a display case full of miniature pianos. Liberace was, to her, the ultimate performer. She watched him on TV, went to see him in Vegas and wherever. I think "eccentric bachelor" was the term she used for him. I was too young to know what gay was, so I just let it go.

Paul Lynde was also eccentric.

goatman - did you see the new kindle they're hoping to put out? bigger!

No, I didn't see it. Damn. I just bought the Kindle 2 yesterday. It will be waiting for me when I get home on Friday.

But to be honest, I don't think I'd want a bigger one. The current size is fine, except when I surf with it

He played an eccentric person on Mash but his other roles were not like that. He played a Southern bumpkin in "Doc Hollywood". He was great.

He only did gay operating on Mash.

And you spotted him right away?

Hawkeye: "What a dick."

Col. Potter: "That's what Winchester said."

The Kindle is waterproof?

it's just in the test stages - you'll be able to pull maps up, read full page magazines and more storage.

zot - FF!

And you spotted him right away?

He always seemed like he would fit in as the uniformed chappy of the Village People.

But I suppose equally applicable is "who cares" and "is this news" really?

There were no chubby, bald Village People.

Please review the Gay Stereotypes 101 syllabus. LOL!

"Doc, my foot's been blown off. Why do I need a prostate exam?"

From reading the above, it's clear that the song was right-nobody loves you when you're old and gay...

I'll bet you still have pets that might love you, NG.

Sad that he felt the need to remain secretive for his whole life. Somebody should have told him that the 1950s ended 50 years ago.

Though I do not know what was going on under those fabulous hats, they already had an army guy (Alex) anyway. TV adds 10 pounds (though it would not hide muscle tone.

I suppose you're right that I need to bone up on my gay stereotypes to fit in with the cool kids.

He said "bone up". Heh heh, heh.

FF

what was his first clue?

BJ Honeycut....That's a gay name.


When I first read this headline, I automatically thought it was gonna be Mike Farrell (is that his name?), him being a big liberal tree-hugger and all.

My guess is that he is gay too, as well as the dude who plays the priest. (no jokes necessary)

Ironically, I do not think Cpl Klinger is.

So, Don't Ask, Don't Tell really does work.

I guess this means that Ogden Stiers has two strikes against him with the Boy Scouts.

I automatically thought it was gonna be Mike Farrell (is that his name?), him being a big liberal tree-hugger and all.

My guess is that he is gay too,

Farrell has been married to Shelley Fabares (from the old Donna Reed Show, and Coach) for 25 years. He was married to his first wife for 20 years. Still might be gay, but he's covering it well.

what a revalation huh?
lets see he loves fine music and fine wines and talks real uppity and

UH OH>..SA....have you considered coming out..

lol

oh...oh.......nice huh?????

UH OH>..SA....have you considered coming out..

Where have you been?

please..

its a little joke

dont get your 'pansy ass panties all wadded up......

sorry but I have waited to say that....

AND SA
I knew kolbe was good but I didnt know that he AND fischer were CHEAP SHOT dirty players like they were last night....

Who do you guess is in the closet on Drudge?
I would guess Goatflop. He's way to angry. He's definitely harboring some pent up frustrations. And he loves provoking Bob about weird sexual stuff.

Probably the self-professed "cowboy" that moved to Denmark so that he could live out his gay lifestyle unbeknownst to his family back in the states.

or maybe a guy who sounds like he's one of the village people...

please..

Why would I do that? I was just wondering why you were such a dufus as to ask someone who's been "out" for many years to consider "coming out".

Good one Chairpoodle.
I was starting to think you were off your Geritol or something, because you have been pretty much a wallflower lately.
Maybe you're getting over the swine flu or something?

I thought it was Klinger!


No doubt 101's gaydar saw through this. ;o)

It strikes me queer though that Chairpoodle is so quick to come to the defense of Goatflop.
I hit a gay nerve.

I hit a gay nerve.

Get your tongue out of Alex Jone's rectum and that won't happen again.

That was gross but funny. Zombiesphincter

I would guess Goatflop. He's way to angry.

Oh well. Almost everyone I know has told me I'm one of the most laid back people they know.

But then again, I see all the shit you believe, so you believing I'm angry is pretty pale in comparison. LOL

You saw a defense of Goatman in there? Really?
I'm pretty sure you're retarded.

Bagging on a retard like you isn't a defense of somebody else. The fact you claim it was is just one more example of how stupid you are. Really.

Yeah I know Goatflop, and you don't harrass Bob about weird sex stuff either.

That was gross but funny. Zombiesphincter.

Yep...

Goatflop and Chairpoodle heart each other.
Do you two hold hands, on the sofa watching Queer as folk?

You call that bagging Chairpoodle?
More like teabagging.

Klinger was not gay, he was trying to get out on an insanity deferment.

Do you two hold hands, on the sofa watching Queer as folk?

No. Montecore and I are a couple and I don't cheat.

Thanks for that insightful TV moment Canary.
You're a master of the obvious.

Why are you obsessing over gay stuff, li'l jeffy? Could it be:

In psychology, psychological projection (or projection bias) is a defense mechanism where a person's personal attributes, unacceptable or unwanted thoughts, and/or emotions are ascribed onto another person or people. According to Wade, Tavris (2000) projection occurs when a person's own unacceptable or threatening feelings are repressed and then attributed to someone else.

SA...I didnt even think about it because I dont see people as gay or black or brown
you KNOW THAT.............lol

Yeah, I'm gay. Goatflop.
I have the hots for you big boy.
I think you like me to. That's why you chase me around DR.
Come to Denmark, and we'll make sweet love.

Yeah, I'm gay. Goatflop.

I've no problem with that.

Come to Denmark, and we'll make sweet love.

Sure. You buy the ticket and I'll be there. Only it has to be business class. I never fly coach on overseas flights. Too cramped.


Come to Denmark, and we'll make sweet love.

Tramp!!!!

I always thought him and Clinger had an "arrangement". Just who led when they danced?

Come to Denmark...

Foghat - Wanna Make Love

You'll love the background in the vid...

maybe he liked farr putting his "NOSE" where it didnt belong.

oh...oh.......gay humor..
Ive got it all..........

The Hulkster wonders why stuff like this is newsworthy anymore. Nobody cares what sexual orientation anyone is... particularly washed up actors.

HULKAMANIA FOREVER

didn't know he was in the closet.

Well heck, there were people right up to the end that insisted Liberace was merely "flamboyant".

Spud has some older relatives who are still totally convinced that Liberace was merely a "showman".

Lawl!

/More than just a river in Egypt.

Ironically, I do not think Cpl Klinger is.

Actually tranvestites rarely are gay.

John Wayne, it has been often alleged, liked to dress up in women's clothing but he was still, by all accounts, straight.

Be Well.

On Topic?

Gay schmay, the scenes between the insane Colonel Flag and the droll Winchester were still funny stuff.

Be Well.

Liar.

Sintherely,

Gay....errr J Edgar Hoover.

G Man.

"John Wayne, it has been often alleged, liked to dress up in women's clothing"

With a name like Marion, can you blame him?

I would venture to guess than any TV series had at least one gay actor, going back to "I Love Lucy" - I mean, Vivian Vance? Oh, puh-lease!

Embarrassing - John Wayne had the same name as Mrs C. from Happy Days.

Embarrassing - John Wayne had the same name as Mrs C. from Happy Days.

Even more embarrssing, John Wayne shared a similar taste in clothing with Mrs C.

/Admittedly, he was a coupla sizes larger.

Be Well

#68 - DOH! I'll never look at Rooster Cogburn the same way ever again...hm...come to think of it, Kim Darby kinda looked like a young dude in that film.

TARK,

Since when did you start copying PUD's Enter key hysteria style? Just run that stupid shit together so we can skip over it quicker or go back to coaching young basketball thugs.

Put a team called the Lilly Whites together and we'll see how it ends!

Only in some neighborhoods. It's not obvious that Hollywood is one of them. www.metroweekly.com www.timessquaregossip.com

okay you dips can talk about me all you want but when you start dising the 'duke' ...well you are really asking for trouble...lol

Honestly, I assumed the actors were all straight. I don't know for certain, but were there any gay characters or episodes of MASH?

He needs the money.

Ok, it is time for you homos in here to come out of the closet. If David can do it you can too.

I'm sure they would if you'd just take that last step forward and stop blocking the door.

#75 | Posted by redlightrobot at 2009-


yes I believe there was. it was something about how he was treated by the men in his company. they never used the word gay of course because then it meant its real meaning.
hawk helped to get him reassigned I believe is how it went.


but look....maybe stiers can get a job with hilton in the gay nazi party.
