I think Phillips has some issues that need dealing with. To be that rabidly anti-gay makes me wonder if didn’t have some sort of traumatic experience in his childhood. I’m no psychiatrist, but it’s pretty much a common understanding that when someone is expressing fears of being overrun by evil penis cakes that there is a strong possibility that they are suppressing latent homosexual desires.
Surely there must be some reason why Phillips thinks that a penis is evil? Again, I think the common understanding is that a penis doesn’t act under it’s own free will. It is solely mechanical by nature and therefore his ascribing human characteristics in which the knowledge of good and evil is imparted to an appendage that is only capable of responding to physical stimuli demonstrates some sort of aberrant thinking.
That which I’ve feared the most has come upon me?
Who knows? Maybe someone will make a cult classic movie about evil penis cakes. I mean, you have the Tomato that ate Cleveland, The Attack of the 50 Foot Woman.. So why not have …The Attack of the Evil Penis Cakes or The Evil Penis Cake that ate Phoenix
Boy Howdy, Swami.
Some of our elected officials seem to spend a lot of time thinking of pretty strange things of which we should all be very, very afraid. If some of these folks were our personal friends, I wonder how long we might put off the necessity of having the old “You need to seek professional help†conversation.
Oh drat, now I’ve got myself making an imaginary response to the issue, something like:
Studies indicate that nearly 87% of penis shaped wedding cakes consumed over the last two decades were purchased for use at heterosexual weddings versus a mere 9% for same sex events. The remaining 4% were left unclaimed at the bakeries and sold at discount or donated to charities or non-profit organizations, such as adult day care centers or civic groups. (See chart) There is no evidence of any additional risk associated with cakes prepared for use at same sex events although they do tend to exhibit more artistic merit in some subjective appraisals.
I might end by paraphrasing Jefferson, “What harm is one penis cake or many penis cakes? They neither pick my pocket or break my leg.”
Sorry, that should be “They neither pick my pocket NOR break my leg.”
I don’t know about those penis-cakes, but I’d gladly dive into a nice and fresh vagina-muffin!!!
These are some deeply disturbed and troubled (almost like real human) people!
He then levels one of the most damning criticisms possible in Republican circles, saying Brewer “proved she was no Ronald Reagan.â€
Hey, now. Some of Nancy “Mommy” Reagan’s best friends were gentlemen who enjoyed penis cakes.
“Arizona would soon become a place overrun by the evil of penis cakes”
This guy (Judson Phillips) really wants the penis cake but he has been taught to suppress his appetite for penis cake. Anyone who can outwardly just buy and consume penis cake is obviously a tyrant asking for special rights. If we allow these penis cakes to baked and consumed the republic is surely damned?
Batcrap crazy.
This guy has spent a ton of time thinking about gay men.
Eventually, the issue has to wind up before the USSC to decide a fundamental question which the Tea Party Nation doesn’t want to discuss in the open. Are the rights extended specifically on the basis of race, color, religion, or natural origin also applicable to sexual orientation? Libertarians still oppose those provisions of the 1964 civil rights act which determined that a private business could not refuse service, except under non-discriminatory conditions. (Rand Paul has been explicit expressing his doubts about this very provision of the Civil Rights Act.)
Phillips doesn’t just have homophobic issues. He has libertarian issues that have to do with the federal government limiting use of ‘private property’. To reverse the Civil Rights Act of 1964, he needs populist support beyond the ranks of libertarians and he’s trying to tap homophobia among non-libertarians to revisit a legal concept that was resolved 50 years ago – and is popular now among all but a radical few. And here’s the deception – The Tea Party doesn’t want to admit out loud that they would enable all discrimination at every level of society to enshrine property rights beyond the reach of the federal government – a concept they want to extend to taxation as well.
… the nation’s radical religious fundamentalists see an ever-shrinking window to impose their Bronze Age worldview on the gay, atheist, liberal, immigrant, heathen, and science book-reading masses…
…measures like Arizona’s SB1062 bill have emerged in a number of states out of “a wellspring of conservative panic about the country’s abrupt legal and cultural evolution into a society that’s broadly tolerant of gay people.†He adds, “Rather than deny the shift, or stop at trying to reverse it in legislatures, the courts and at ballot boxes, conservatives are instead attempting to erect a legal architecture that will wall them off from the growing portion of American society that supports equal rights for gay people.â€
…The Christian Right has not only moved from the fringes to become the main strain of the Republican Party; it is the Republican Party. These radicals continually surprise us for the fact casual political observers mistakenly believe they represent the far-right fringe. You cannot sugarcoat the fact that a majority of Republicans in Arizona’s House, and also a majority of Republicans in Arizona’s Senate voted for this anti-gay law. Likewise a majority of Republicans in Kansas’ House voted for a similar bill…
Ill never look at Twinkies the same way again.
I just think we should take up a collection to send this yahoo a rainbow penis cake….you know he wants it!!!!!
I remember a line from the war on Christmas poem about “visions of sugar plums dancing in their heads”, this penis cake idea is just crazy. Give me a big heart shaped cake any day, we all know what that valentine standard represents.
Oh the force is strong with this one………..
How about ding dongs, swami ? There’s nothing like a nice sweet ding dong in the morning with a cold frappichino. Or , so I’ve heard.

“”Whatsoever is lawful in the Commonwealth or permitted to the subject in the ordinary way cannot be forbidden to him for religious uses; and whatsoever is prejudicial to the Commonwealth in their ordinary uses and, therefore, prohibited by the laws, ought not to be permitted to churches in their sacred rites. For instance, it is unlawful in the ordinary course of things or in a private house to murder a child; it should not be permitted any sect then to sacrifice children. It is ordinarily lawful (or temporarily lawful) to kill calves or lambs; they may, therefore, be religiously sacrificed. But if the good of the State required a temporary suspension of killing lambs, as during a siege, sacrifices of them may then be rightfully suspended also. This is the true extent of toleration.”
–Thomas Jefferson: Notes on Religion, 1776. Papers 1:547
The swill that has been promoted that there is a ‘war on religion’ needs to be refuted – and no spokesman can be found more qualified than Thomas Jefferson. Whatever legal rules or sanctions passed by the government which apply to the common man, apply to religions, equally and exactly. I’m a day late and a dollar short with this quote, but there it is. The need will arise again and when it does, I hope this quote will be cited, possibly to the USSC if they are in need of instruction.
Here’s a little something for those of you that might want to calibrate your thinking process. If you come away from reading this with a big Huh?, then you’ll know that you’re within the “normal” range and that your logic is not impaired.

this guy lost his mind years ago…
While this guy is plainly nuts, he’s just one datapoint. The bigger story is explained in Dwindling Christian Right Turns into Cornered Animal, Lashes Out at Civil Rights and Democracy.
