From Clinton, this is great too: “As I have traveled around the country these past twelve months, what I sensed in my heart has been confirmed – America is embracing its LGBT sons and daughters with an acceptance and understanding as never before. On the campaign trail, a father of a gay son will ask […]
Here is a message from Obama to all of us! “I’m running for President to build an America that lives up to our founding promise of equality for all – a promise that extends to our gay brothers and sisters. It’s wrong to have millions of Americans living as second-class citizens in this nation. And […]
Hey everyone! I am blogging once in a while now for CNN so check me out there also! What ever happened to gay marriage? People don’t really talk about it anymore. I fear the issue has just gone away. With all the excitement about a Bush-free world, everyone sort of forgot that we don’t really […]
I am sickened by the casual way in which the right wing media spew forth hatred of homosexuals. Here is the latest call to action from GLAAD referring to a disturbing exchange on “The O’Reilly Factor:” Laura Ingraham claims that Transgender Conference is “Killing Our Culture” on FOX News’ The O’Reilly Factor While guest hosting […]
I am absolutely devastated by the death of Heath Ledger. I never met him, but I was a big fan, especially after “Brokeback Mountain.” His performance in that film was so stunning, utterly heartbreaking, just filled with a raw, naked longing and wrenching sadness. I admired him because I thought it was so brave – […]
I am a big Ellen fan. I have been one for quite a long time now. I used to do the local news talk shows with her in San Francisco, when we were both still kids. I also opened for her at the Other Café when she would work special weekend shows, and she would […]
Here is another brilliant take on the incident by the very cool and articulate Ian Harvie, reposted below: People often ask: “Which restroom do you use?” I usually reply: “Which ever one I want.” But in all seriousness, I prefer the Women’s Room mostly because they smell better and men are generally filthy pigs. So […]
Last week I was privileged to attend Bette Midler’s “Hulaween,” a benefit for the NY Restoration Project. I have been invited to this annual event for many years, and never had the night free to go, but I’ve always wanted to. I am a huge Bette Midler fan. I have always felt akin to her, […]
What is infuriating about this issue is that the braindead homophobes out there will look at it as some kind of proof that homosexuality has something in common with pedophilia. It doesn’t but some people are just that dumb, and the homophobic are very special kinds of assholes. Rep. Foley is obviously a deeply troubled […]

Badlands is an unfortunate yet appropriate name for a gay bar in San Francisco that is being cited for racial discrimination. It is alleged that the owner required African American patrons to show multiple forms of i.d. before being allowed entry, as well as having a dress code and employment policies that were equally prejudiced. […]
Why am I political? Because society’s consistent and constant disregard and lack of respect for minorities, even the title ‘minority,’ when in many areas of the country we are in fact the majority, is too much to bear silently. Their insistence at our invisibility, whether it is as subtle as non-inclusion, or as loud as […]
