Grindr Has The 2012 GOP National Convention Closet Cases Covered

Written by

republicans closeted can find hairy beefy men during convention with grindr app

Grindr should appreciate this idea for an app that helps those closeted Republications find their GOP counterparts during the 2012 National GOP Convention in Miami. Don’t be surprised if this inspires them to pull together their Grindm In the Closet app just in time.

closeted republicans line up for new grindr app for gop convention
Funny Or Die came up with another clever video to show how useful Grindr can be to meet other closeted Republicans while working the 2012 National GOP Convention in Miami, Florida. Grindm would have been more appropriate for this app that many people use to ‘meet’ new friends in the area. You never know when that overwhelming need to make a new ‘friend’ could arise after watching all the scantily clad bodies on the Miami Beach scene.

Joshua Malina (Sports Night, West Wing) brings his A-game to this video that most of you should appreciate…and some will be squirming either wishing this was a real app or knowing that it hits the nail on the head pretty well. “Imagine being enveloped by Mike Huckabee’s speech on family values, and then glancing at your phone and seeing up to 300 high-quality [GOP closet cases] without any interruption.”

Pretty sure he is doing it for a statement as an activist, Anyone can see the irony in the location and the event. Noted by some online columnists, there was also an uptick in Craigslist related sex cruising ads for closeted men looking for other closeted men during CPAC. Also, it is not like he could hide a viral video like this from his husband if he wanted to. He is clearly making a statement not looking for an affair.

I just wish this was a bit longer. More faces! i think being on Grindr at CPAC should open you up to automatic outing.

For future reference, you can long-press the user tile screen and a small menu appears. Then you can tap nearest to arrange user tiles by distance from you.

Repiglickers are GAY GAY GAY GAY GAY (closeted of course, and self-hating, hypocritical fags...oooo, maybe they're those Log Cabin Repugnant assholes?!!!)

wrong. The monogamy part comes from the fact that if there's a person on Grindr who is supposedly in a monogamous relationship, then what is he doing on a site like Grindr??? Clearly people don't go on there just to look for friends. And there are better ways for a gay in a monogamous relationship to look for friends.

the sarcasm come from him not believing in monogamy and apparently his own relationship isn't monogamous. i think he's a jerk.

I don't think that Grindr gay is particularly monogamous considering he's on Grindr lol. BTW as soon as I saw the title for this video I started laughing. Dan and Dan are brilliant lol.

I didn't know what Dan's status was, it didn't matter to the point I was making to Norbu, taking one statement by anyone as an example of an entire group was stupid. But still, my apology to Dan and his husband.

, regarding his face, that's the nature of the internet. Deal with it. I do agree about Dan's comment about monogamous gays. Perhaps he was intending to refer to monogamous gay Republican politicos.

Dan and his husband are the parents of a teenager. Read "the Commitment" and "The Kid" for further information.
