Lots of folks have an opinion on the rape allegation against Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner. Even former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy.

"The one thing I know about Republicans: When we had a very bad candidate and found out, we didn’t vote for that person. We walked away," McCarthy said on Fox News.

Sad. Obviously ol' Kev has early Alzheimer's.

It's here, the 250th birthday of the United States. If you're American, how do you feel about our country today? (If you're not, feel free to comment, too. Like I would leave anybody out on a day celebrating democracy.)

A long-planned gay cruise in the Mediterranean has hit a whirlpool.

Provincial officials in Turkey have denied the cruise ship permission to dock next week, citing groups on board "known for behaviors that do not align with the structure of our society and our moral values."

Safe to assume they're not talking about vegetarians.

It turns out that Broadway superstar Patti LuPone is performing on board, and Evita isn't happy. "A ship—a magnificent ship—full of well-heeled gay men. And me. Denied entry to Turkey simply because of who is on board," she wrote on Facebook.

The Turks had best beware. In ancient times, Greek goddesses held sway there. But their wrath was nothing compared to a modern diva.
