Hah! Ron Paul should be held accountable for his "queer" remarks to his people after he storms out! His dignity was only tarnished by his own homophobic comments. He's a big boy, and being a politician he should've known better than to react with such offensive sentiments. Sacha Baron Cohen is quite brilliant at persuading others to lower their guards and voice their honest opinions. He is the vehicle that allows the people in his films to truly open up on many subjects - whether it's Jews and women (Borat) or queers. I am a gay man and I thought this was a poignant film in its revelations about homophobia. Not in the way that so many low-budget coming out/gay-bashing sad story/boy-meets-[tragically unavailable closeted uber-conservative] boy films do on LOGO (don't get me wrong - I totally love most of those too...). This film is far-reaching; it will infiltrate the "moral" strongholds of Middle America where so many of Baron Cohen's lesser costars live. And if it had been my father or grandfather or mother or grandmother who had said some of the things in Bruno, I'd be the first to tell them that they were behaving like an ass. And I totally agree with LibertarianMike - learn to laugh already!
