Matt Sanchez is a certifiable jerk

By Michael Mahler, on January 29th, 2008

Groan! Matt Sanchez. former Marine and gay porn star (under the stage names of Rod Majors and Pierre LeBranche), is now a conservative commentator. Check out the YouTube video made of a radio broadcast with some truly tasteless (and flamingly hypocritical) commentary he made about Heath Ledger’s death.

Wow. First of all, Heath Ledger seems to have had quite a range of roles in his career, and appears to have been a very kind and thoughtful person.

It is beyond absurd for Matt Sanchez to pull attitude to claim that Brokeback Mountain was a gay porn film. Um, nope. No, it wasn’t. And that would probably sound a LOT more convincing making the claim hadn’t worked as actor in porn and done escorting. (I.e. people who live in glass whorehouses REALLY should not throw stones, particularly at people who have a well-respected and legitimate film career.) Hey, if someone takes pride in being a responsible sex worker, more power to them. Or even someone who is honest about their sexuality/libido. But assuming a judgmental attitude in Sanchez’s case is beyond absurd.

Was Heath Ledger … broke by the mountain…

Was Matt up all night thinking of that quote? Dorothy Parker, he aint!

Sigh. I just do NOT get right wing, boot licking gays at all. It’s like chickens wearing I heart KFC buttons.

    Sanchez is indeed an insane homophobe. In his ‘radio show’ (delirious rantings) he also repeats the GOP lie that Media Matters is funded by George Soros. Mateo is learning the trade of RNC propagandist from his buddy Matt Drudge.

    Matt Sanchez must have realized how depraved, dirty and disgusting his life has had been. It must have been a tough and difficult decision. He was an anus manic addicted to many men’s anuses (the gays call it glory hole; you can laugh for that). So he left his so called “glory” and went onto the good path. Do you think that’s easy? I do agree that Matt Sanchez is not a great person and that he is not trustworthy or honest. I do realize that he is an hypocrite (for claiming that he is not a gay or for making unfair comments about Heath Ledger, etc.). But for me that is not as bad as being a gay or prostitute. He has, in fact, taken a giant leap. I am sure he must be respected for doing something honorable. Can you tell me a gay guy or prostitute who left that vicious ditch for good?

    Wow, Cerephine. I guess being a hypocrite is SO much better than being gay.
    Um, actually, I AM laughing about your use of the term “glory hole.” That’s not what it refers to at all. If you are going to attempt to use gay slang, would you at least Google it or check Wikipedia to avoid embarrassing yourself publicly? Thanks ever so much!
    Earning money by covering up your past and slamming someone who is dead is not particularly honorable. You must have a rather strange sense of what “honor” is.
    Am I aware of people who had been involved in the sex trade and have now left it? I believe that I do. Do I know people who previously identified as gay who now identify as straight in a way that I find believable? Nope. I thought anti-gay folks who thought that sexual orientation was something that happened on an idle whim? You aren’t exactly helping to make your point here, you know. You even admit that he is a hypocrite for “claiming” that he is not gay, which indicates that you realize he has probably only managed to delude himself.
    I agree that Matt should indeed “take a giant leap” – preferably into a nearby lake.
