Variety reports — or, to use Varietyspeak, “Vari reps”:

Brad Pitt has donated $100,000 to fight California’s November ballot initiative that would overturn the state Supreme Court decision legalizing same-sex marriage…

“Because no one has the right to deny another their life, even though they disagree with it, because everyone has the right to live the life they so desire if it doesn’t harm another and because discrimination has no place in America, my vote will be for equality and against Proposition 8,” Pitt said Wednesday.

Let’s hear it for our Homosexual-American brothers and brothers and sisters and sisters! Such is Pitt’s dedication to the idea of gay marriage that he and Angelina have vowed not to marry until everybody else can. (They’re not married, right? Or are they? It’s tough to keep up.)

But hold on a sec. What’s this?

That’s from some sort of tribute to Julia Roberts last year. Because obviously she hasn’t received enough accolades for movies like Runaway Bride, I Love Trouble, and Mary Riley.

Now, we here at Deceiver are hardly fans of Larry Craig. His public, um, stance on homosexuality is obviously at odds with his private, er, stance. But it hardly seems sporting to mock the guy for struggling with his deepest urges, when you’re throwing so much weight into, um, backing up gays everywhere. How about trying to understand what he’s going through and, in a manner of speaking, seduce him to seeing your side of things? If Larry Craig would pay attention to anybody, it’d have to be Brad Pitt. (A check for one hundred grand probably couldn’t hurt either.) Or are gay people worthy of respect only when they do exactly what you want them to do?

Still, that was pretty funny. Brad really can act when he puts his mind to it. Save something for your movies, Brad!
