<p>Kirchick <a href="http://www.advocate.com/exclusive_detail_ektid98482.asp?page=2">tackles</a> Bill Clinton over his recent epiphany:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>After leaving office [with DADT and DOMA under his belt], Clinton added insult to injury. We also know that in 2004, he advised John Kerry to support not only the many state-level constitutional amendments banning gay marriage, but also the Federal Marriage Amendment championed by President George W. Bush. Five years later, with a series of states having legalized same-sex marriage, the polls decisively showing a generational surge in support for the cause, and &#8212; most importantly in terms of this discussion &#8212; the definitive end of the Clinton dynasty upon us, Bill Clinton wants us to know that he “basically” supports gay marriage.</p>
<p>Pardon me for being cool toward the latest tergiversations of this congenital liar and shameless opportunist.</p>
