Obama's mixing it up

Folks were concern about Obama extending the Faith based initiatives Bush started years ago. However, there could be a new twist to that. The President just named Fred Davie to serve on the Policy Council on Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships.

But what's so special about this? Well, Fred is openly gay and the president of Public/Private Ventures, an organization that creates and strengthens programs to improve the lives of residents in low-income communities.

I think this is wonderful news and I hope Fred can represent and handle his business.

Question of the Day

Did anyone find Brian Kinney from Queer as Folk hot? I didn't, but I just wanted to know.

Well, I would make out with him, but I would not let him taste my pudding.


Well...I would let him...I would have sex with him. But only once.

Sit Down, Johnny!

McCain got a message loud and clear from the Dems today.

Your alternative stimulus plan STINKS!

The poor man put up a plan that was smaller than Obama' s, but it almost made no sense. They voted 57-40 against McCain's $421 billion dollar plan.

McCain's plan would have cut the bottom two income tax brackets and reduced corporate income taxes. It also would have extended unemployment benefits and provide money to take care of military equipment demolished in the war. But nobody was hearing it. Nice try though, Magoo.

DOMA is UNCONSTITUTIONAL

Judge Stephen Reinhardt of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said that DOMA or Defense of Marriage Act is unconstitutional.

According to him, it denies benefits to gay federal employees' spouses... And I agree.

Here's the legal stuff

"The denial of federal benefits to same-sex spouses cannot be justified simply by a distaste for or disapproval of same-sex marriage or a desire to deprive same-sex spouses benefits available to other spouses in order to discourage exercising a legal right afforded them by the state," Reinhardt wrote in his Feb. 2 order....

Both orders are internal employee grievance decisions. Both found in favor of the gay employees, directing court administrators to give health insurance benefits to their spouses. The orders also represent direct challenges to DOMA, the 1996 act that forbids the federal government from treating same-sex relationships as marriages for any purpose.

A lawyer for the staff attorney said this is believed to be the first time federal employees will get benefits covering a same-sex spouse.

Big changes are coming

Stop Hatin' Etta!!

Etta James...girl please. Stifle yourself.

Here's her rant on Beyonce

"You guys know your president, right? You know the one with the big ears? Wait a minute, he ain't my president. He might be yours; he ain't my president. But I tell you that woman he had singing for him, singing my song — she's going to get her ass whipped. … The great Beyoncé. Like I said, she ain't mine. … I can't stand Beyoncé. She has no business up there, singing up there on a big ol' president day, gonna be singing my song that I've been singing forever."


Etta, get it together

My Rant about Kyle Wilker

And while I'm thinking about it...I hope the Gay media do not give this Kyle Wilker any face time. Kyle should NOT be celebrated or given a chance to speak his side. Right now, he is shopping around to anyone that will sell this story.

By outing Jonathan Knight, he branded himself as a pure grain asshole. Folks like him should shunned from the community. Their actions are hateful and dangerous to our growth and progress as a people. It is sad to believe that to get anywhere in this world you need to harm others. It's a foolish game to play, as well as harmful to your spirit.

So Kyle, be a man. Because it didn't work out between y'all, you would stoop so low? How small of you to do this. What did you hope to gain by outing Jonathan? This ain't Gossip Girl, this is someone's life. You should think about this when someone burns you for nothing.

Stay Strong, Jonathan!

Gay on Gay Crime

This is...sad. When is it cool to out someone? Never. Especially when you are SUPPOSE to be a friend.

Today I was floored to see this National Enquirer story about Jonathan Knight and his fling/friend/asshole,Kyle Wilker. It's labeled as Gay Lover Tells All, which makes me mad.

This is an example of pettiness in our community. For his little 15 minutes, Kyle was willing to out someone who is a friend. He could ruin Jonathan's life, I wondered if he thought about that.

Probably didn't since he wanted the Enquirer to know. If this is true, then I hope Jonathan has the support he needs. I don't want this bitch or the fallout from this story to destroy his trust in people or the gay community. If you don't know Jonathan's story, just know that he's been a lot. I wish him well and I hope his fans and friends give him strength through this.

And for you, Kyle Wilker...What you did was wrong, vile and hateful! I cast a plague upon your house!
