They're doing it in New Jersey!

During a fundraising dinner for Garden State Equality, Governor Jon Corzine said that he would sign a marriage equality law once the process is ready.

He also announced a new regulation that allows transgender New Jersey folk to change their gender on their driver's license. They will need would to provide an affidavit of their gender identity to get done first.

That's something for New Jersey. I never thought they would be putting it out there like that. Good for them.

And we're Off!

In Cali-Cal, the houses of the state Legislature passed resolutions yesterday endorsing the legal effort to overturn Prop 8.

This is great news as we head into Thursday. I feel very good about this.

The supporters of the overturn have always believed that Prop 8 was a revision to the state Constitution and only the Legislature can place such revisions before voters.

Sen. Mark Leno from San Francisco said:

"We're talking about a radical revision to our Constitution," said who sponsored the Senate resolution. Do we have a constitutional democracy in California or do we have mob rule, where a majority of Californians can change the Constitution at any time?"

I guess we will see how the opponents take this news. It's getting juicy.

Steele, Man Up!

Head of the RNC, Michael Steele needs some balls. After Rush boasted his power at the CPAC this weekend, Steele was challenged about his leadership.


Then the Kingpin said this:
"So I am an entertainer and I have 20 million listeners because of my great song and dance routine," Limbaugh said. "Michael Steele, you are head of the Republican National Committee. You are not head of the Republican party. Tens of millions of conservatives and Republicans have nothing to do with the Republican National Committee...and when you call them asking for money, they hang up on you. I hope that changes. It's time, Mr. Steele, for you to go behind the scenes and start doing the work that you were elected to do instead of being some talking-head media star."

Okay, so I thought Steele would tell him he's poison to the GOP and they don't need his help. But no, Steele said:
"My intent was not to go after Rush - I have enormous respect for Rush Limbaugh. I was maybe a little bit inarticulate. ... There was no attempt on my part to diminish his voice or his leadership."

What? Leadership? Rush is not seen as a leader in the real world. He's a joke and an embarrassment to the human race. Steele, are you going to let this man mess up any chance of a comeback? Because if folks follow Rush, the GOP is doomed. He brings NOTHING to the table, however Steele, you might. Man up and handle your business.

Rush has not made any strides from GOP party and he never will. So save your party from total destruction, and show everyone who's the true leader.

I love These Guys

I have a small crush on Seth and Jason...a big one for Paul

Possible Movie ideas about other Impressive LGBT folks

I saw Milk yesterday and was moved by his story, Penn's performance and what was accomplished during that time.

Later, I realized there are more LGBT folks who should have their stories told as well. So, I'm going to list a few LGBT movers and shakers that deserve a LOGO movie at least.

Sylvester
Before RuPaul, there was Sylvester. The True Queen of Disco made a huge statement during his reign on the radio. His voice was powerful, his style was unique and his story is far from ordinary.



















Audre Lorde
Activist, writer, teacher and leader. Her contributions to our movement is extraordinary.















Gay Liberation Front
This is was the first group to form after the Stonewall riots. This group was passionate about militarism, racism, and sexism. Also they had some interesting views too.




















Rasclyffe Hall
She lived her life as an out lesbian and wrote The Well of Loneliness, known as the most important lesbian novel ever published.




















Bayard Rustin
His work with Dr. King has been the best kept secret for years. His story should be told for all to know his great achievements.




















This is just a short list, but I would love if we had more movies that reflect our contributions to history and to social change.

Burn Keith Phoenix!

Keith Phoenix is truly a sad product of his environment. This man murdered Jose O. Sucuzhanay on a Brooklyn street last year because he thought he was gay. Jose was holding his brother's hand and to Keith, it was threatening his manhood.

Now as the arrests been made and case moves forward, Keith comes up with this silly story that he was acting in self-defense. This Saturday, Keith's lawyer said that he thought the guy had was a weapon in his waistband and it was Jose who started the fight.

Keith...You're caught! Stop playing and be a man! You killed this man because you thought he was gay, be real about that, idiot! To come up with this hair-brain scheme is ridiculous and the lawyer who's sponsoring you is stupid to think this will work.

Jose M. Arrufat Gracia, the lawyer for the Sucuzhanay family was appalled with this claim:

“We definitely believe those allegations are insulting to the victims, alleging that the perpetrators were acting in self-defense.”

It is, it really is. Keith, what you did is wrong, own it.

Feels like Gay Rights Week to me

This week, major things are happening in the gay world. First, is the introduction of the DADT repeal, headed by Rep. Ellen O. Tauscher of Cali-Cal.

It has been talked about for a while, so I'm sure President Obama is aware of its presence. However, it could get pushed back considering the everything else that's happening in our country. Still, it seems like the easier issue to manage. And I really dreaming, if I really believed that.

And next is Prop 8 hearings. It's going to be an exciting time in Cali-Cal as the 'events' start this week. I'm hearing that a lot folks are planning to march and possibly protest all over. I won't be here for most of the week, since I will be in Seattle for NASPA. However, I will be on the computer looking for info. San Francisco will be a huge march on Wednesday. You can check out the info here .

It feels good to know that the stuff is going down. I hope there's some good news at the end these battles.

Question of the Day

It's Monday, so I will ask a simple question...What was your favorite childhood book?

A Child will Lead Them

Funny how these people think Obama is the Antichrist, while they have their own Damien Thorn speaking at their madcap conference.


I guess this is their Kid Miracleman, the future genius...Jonathan Krohn. He's smart almost too smart for the GOP, but we will see what happens to this kid as he grows up.

This could be a possible Presidential candidate...and then we will have, Omen V already in process.

And they call Us the Sex Addicts

Guess who loves the porn? Well, most of us do, but a new study revealed that Conservatives love it so much more.

This study found that conservative and religious states consume the most porn than other states. Look at some key points from the study:

Church-goers bought less online porn on Sundays – a 1% increase in a postal code's religious attendance was associated with a 0.1% drop in subscriptions that day. However, expenditures on other days of the week brought them in line with the rest of the country.

The biggest consumer, Utah, averaged 5.47 adult content subscriptions per 1000 home broadband users; Montana bought the least with 1.92 per 1000.

Residents of 27 states that passed laws banning gay marriages boasted 11% more porn subscribers than states that don't explicitly restrict gay marriage.

Eight of the top 10 pornography consuming states gave their electoral votes to John McCain in last year's presidential election – Florida and Hawaii were the exceptions. While six out of the lowest 10 favoured Barack Obama.

Very interesting...keeping the hypocritical aspect of conservative alive and well. Oh well, at least we know they masturbate sometimes.
