Dumbledore is gay.

The question was: Did Dumbledore, who believed in the prevailing power of love, ever fall in love himself?

JKR: My truthful answer to you... I always thought of Dumbledore as gay. ... Dumbledore fell in love with Grindelwald,

Why am I sure that this will get more play on the news than the fact that there are rumors of Alberto Gonzales facing criminal charges?

1. And for a moment I thought you meant Dan Quayle...

Oops, that joke's about 15 years out of date, isn't it?

:hide:

2. You ask a good question...

too bad there's not a good answer.

3. Nothing like controversy to jerk up sales

I guess the last royalty check was just a tad lower than expected.

4. Because everyone knows that Gonzales is a criminal

But Dumbledore's outing is a surprise.

6. And who is Dumbledore? Not everyone is a Potter fan!

9. if you are not a fan, all you need to know is that he is one of the characters.

A really great one, though.

10. But his views on torture are reprehensible

Wait, who are we talking about again?

8. Harry Potter is not my style. Neither was the Hobbit. It may be

because I am dyslexic. Can't understand the Bible either.

[Orrex]

11. Of those three, the bible is the least plausible and internally consistent

And talk about deus ex machina!

13. Think of the wing nut heads exploding

They already hated the Potter series because it "encouraged witchcraft" now they find out it has GAY wizards. I doubt they'll be able to get their tiny little minds around that.
