I've been a bit distracted this week so I'll try to recap some of the high (and low) lights for you … Spoke with Dok Harris' campaign manager, Michael. Dok is very interested in working with the LGBT community. He has completed the Steel City Stonewall survey which I hope will be posted on their website […]
On February 26, 2009, the Lahaina News – a weekly paper in Hawaii — published the following editorial cartoon. The following week, the editor reportedly published the following statement: “We realize that last week's cartoon offended some community sensibilities.

Larry Craig story (“Idaho Senator Stepping Aside,” Sept. 2) is that police departments continue to waste their time […]
Good grief! I've been blogging for about 20 months during which I've tackled everything from Rick Santorum's former spokesfag to annoying Republican ice cream twins. I've mocked the homophobic Ravenstahl administration. I've targeted Joey Porter, the Archbishop of Nigeria, the City Paper, Edgar Snyder, a lesbian variety show, Pride in the Streets and most major […]
Some sick freak beat up a 72 year old man in Detroit. With a pipe. Because he thought the man was gay. Now he's paralyzed and reported to be slipping away. The victim, Andrew Anthos (right), was riding a city bus back to his residence at Detroit's Windsor Tower apartments on Feb. 13 when another […]
Dear H's Mom, Congratulations on raising spunky, articulate and polite daughter. As you know, she took the time to post a comment on this blog several months ago, sharing her thoughts on the Upper St. Clair performance of “The Importance of Being Earnest” and the potential for homophobia. Unlike most of those who comment here, she […]
