In an appearance on yet another right wingnut talk program, Ricky Sanctimonious played his oh-so-tired homo card. Again. This time he was on Janet Parshall's America (I wish I had my own America), a nationally syndicated talk radio program. I picked this up from the Raw Story. Read what Ricky has to say this time […]
Last night, we toddled off to The Eagle to catch Steel Queer N'At, a quarterly performance of Pittsburgh queer talent put together by a local eclectic queer art collective. For months, we've talked about going to the monthly K'vetch performances (third Thursdays at Modern Formations in Garfield), but something always came up. So this was […]
Sue comes from a long and proud yinzer/steelworker tradition, stretching back over 150 years. She grew up in West Mifflin home of Kennywood and the great yinzer hang out Century III Mall where she was misguided on the value of big hair and neon jewelry for years. Sue has a bachelor's degree in political science […]
All I can do with a straight face is post the link.
I missed this, but on Thursday the Trib published a column by Jim Powell, a senior fellow at the Cato Institute (limited government, free markets, etc). Powell explains how federal regulation of marriage proved to be a bad conservative idea back in the days of Theodore Roosevelt. Polygamous families were producing more children than monogamous families […]
Soulforce is hoping to put up 16 of these billboards in June in opposition to the Federal Marriage Amendment. You can help. The anti-gay forces are making another attempt to amend the U.S. Constitution to define marriage in such a way as to exclude the families of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender people. Senator Bill […]
While he deftly minces closer to his own heterosexual-style wedding to the lovely and talented Roberta, our good friend and lesbian-lover John McIntire gave gay marriage a big old shout out in his local blog, MacYapper.com. In spite of his fondness for large-fonted bold-faced type (I always wondered what his type was), McIntire adroitly dissects […]
Edith Bell of Highland Park has got it right: Mr. Casey is also correct that Pennsylvanians' concerns are health care, the war in Iraq and a living wage, not gay marriage or abortion rights. Yet both our federal and state legislative bodies are compelled to whip Americans into a puritanical frenzy over anti-gay marriage amendments. […]
I woke up with one of those sinus headaches slightly reminiscent of a hangover without the fun memories. Another crappy Friday to muddle through. I'm scrolling through the online edition of the Post-Gazette and I stumble into the return of my all-time favorite columnist – Mr. Tony Norman. PLUS, he even makes a gay joke about […]
From 365gay comes the tidbit that lawyers for Jennifer Harris, the former player suing Penn State coach Rene Portland for harassment and discrimination, have expanded the scope of the lawsuit. This move comes after Portland made public statements degrading Harris and dismissing her athletic accomplishments. “We're not saying Rene does not have a right to defend […]
