Godless gays suck at godlessness
Who knew? Godless gays apparently not so godless. “Creating Change” is an annual conference organized by the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force. Oh, and a reminder: the modern movement for gay equality began on Oct. 6, 1968, with the founding of the Metropolitan Community Church by gay Baptist evangelical minister, Troy Perry.
Why Obama will win in 2012 and Democrats will take back Congress
Here’s why in three words: bait and switch. Get elected as fiscal conservatives, then the instant you’re sworn in, rip off that liberty-lovin’, budget balancin’ mask to reveal the only agenda you really care about: using the coercive powers of government to impose your religion on everyone else in joyful anticipation of that blessed day when …

Co-author of DOMA admits that marriage has always had a legal definition apart from religion
Dear Ed Morrissey or dear Allahpundit at Hot Air gave me a busy evening by linking in the Hot Air Headlines my post below on Hawaii Gov. Lingle’s veto of a new law that would allow civil unions for same-sex partners. (Psssst! Who can tell me what the number to the right of the headline …
Dennis Prager is wrong about the 'T' in LGBT
Dennis Prager has a rant at the National Review Online on the self-posed question, “Why the ‘T’ in GLBT?” First of all, Dennis, it’s LGBT — lesbians first. We found out at the beginning of the Gay Liberation movement that gay men in the 1970’s confused lesbians with their mothers and thought we lived to …

The REAL story in Rachel Maddow vs. Rand Paul over the 1964 Civil Rights Act is that SHE does not have equality and the Left doesn't care
Here is actress Kelly McGillis, who came out as a lesbian several months ago, from a recent interview — she is about the only lesbian or gay person besides me who is pointing out that the current issue regarding minority rights is that gays and lesbians comprise the ONLY minority that is not equal: Discrimination …
Laura Bush is pro-gay marriage and pro-choice
Somehow this interview reminds me of the times I would be transferring Margaret from her wheelchair to something else depending on the place — a lift chair at our yogic flying program, a lift chair at the pool — where my attention would be totally focused on her until I had her settled and often …

A Conservative Lesbian explains why calling someone gay or lesbian is a slur
My piece on the conniption fit the Left went into a few weeks ago when Ben Domenech opined that it was a plus that Supreme Court nominee short-lister Elena Kagan is a lesbian was published at Pajamas Media today. Pajamas Media publisher Roger Simon was puzzled at the extremes the LEFT went to in order …

Gay Christian singing duo Jason and deMarco: 'We're All Angels'
On Saturday evening I caught the last half hour of a two-hour documentary called “We’re All Angels” on Logo. (It will be repeated at 10 am on May 11.) It’s about the singing duo Jason Warner and deMarco DeCiccio who perform as Jason and deMarco. They are Christian, openly gay and a couple — they …

Oprah, if you come out as a lesbian, all is forgiven
This afternoon when Dad and I were buying groceries, I noticed the National Enquirer’s headline that Oprah has ordered Stedman out and moved Gayle King in because she’s “tired of living a lie.” Waddaya know — Kathy Griffin was right. So, Oprah, if you come out as a lesbian, all is forgiven. We’ll see to …
