As this group finds its footing in the party and the region, I have for the most part been impressed with the new leadership (and recent leadership). I'm particularly pleased that they have invested some resources on issues as opposed to just elections. It is important that LGBT Democrats send a clear message to our elected […]
Through 4/15/2008, you can vote in the Post Gazette poll on the marriage amendment. http://www.post-gazette.com/polls/?pollID=2463 As of tonight, 1,820 responses .. A. Yes – 627 (34%) B. No – 1136 (62%) C. Don't care – 57 (3%)
Having read both the article in the Post-Gazette and the one in the Tribune-Review, I must say I came away with a sort of “it all came out equal in the end” impression — namely, that it was a draw. That's not what folks in the LGBTQ community are saying. Reports from various sources tell […]
I can't get past Obama inviting Donnie McClurkin on his swing throug the south tour. I can't swallow his alliance with an avowed “ex-gay” determined to convert/heal me from my sexual orientation. It is a very personal issue for me. That being said, Obama has an interesting interview with The Advocate. Everyone should follow the […]

A lot to impart so bear with me. First, the hearing. If you cannot attend, you can submit written testimony. This comes from Sue Frietsche, Pittsburgh's Women's Law Project go-to-woman. I am still trying to determine if you can email it. Ledcat and I are working on a joint letter. It can be in letter […]
Word trickled out Sunday about the upcoming Pgh hearing on SB 1250 which would amend the constitution of PA to permanently ban gay marriage. And other stuff, too. But no one on the right is talking about the negative backlash for their families beyond the voo doo protection from homo marriage. I have had a […]
Courtesy of Steel City Stonewall Democrats comes this news. Value All Families – Keep Discrimination out of Our State Constitution! Please come to the public hearing in Pittsburgh on Thursday, April 10th and tell Pennsylvania Senate Members to vote NO on Senate Bill 1250. Senate Bill 1250 is a Constitutional Amendment which would ban gay […]
I've been wracking my brains all weekend for an approach to this day. You've read all the facts about the legislation attempting to amend the PA constitution to define marriage as between a man and a woman. It has the potential to hurt a lot of people, gay and straight alike. You've read all the […]
Michael Geer, President of the Pennsylvania Family Institute, is an ignorant pea brained jerk. And that's me in a mellow mood. The PG published his letter to the editor (and NOT mine). He makes two points in response to the PG's editorial that the “marriage protection” amendment is unnecessary (and redundant) First, [t]he PG editors […]
