If Dick Cheney, Godfather of the Apocalypse can support it, who can’t?

1 06 2009

Dick Cheney came out as a supporter of gay marriage!  Of course, there’s a footnote…only if it’s deemed legal by the state and not fed.  I’ve taken family law and I understand the DOMA but I really think it’s beyond time that both the federal and state governments adopt gay marriage.  This country has denied full rights to gay citizens for far too long.

Whoo-Hoo! DC Council Votes to Recognize Gay Marriage!

5 05 2009

You know you’re on the right (read “correct”) side of an issue when Marion Barry is opposing it!  DC’s resident assclown was the lone vote against recognizing out-of-state gay marriages.  In an ideal world, DC would allow full marriage rights but recognizing out-of-state gay marriage is a nice first step.

Marion Barry: Batting 1,000

30 04 2009

As per usual, Marion Barry is on the wrong side of the issue…why?  Because he always is.  I learned as a DC voter YEARS ago…before I was even old enough to vote, that if he supported something, I should investigated it heavily and, more likely than not, vote the other way.  Guess what?  It works!  Pretty much ever issue he’s supported has been bad for the city.  And NOW he’s against same sex marriage in DC.  Why, do you ask?  Well OBVIOUSLY it’s because he’s such a MORAL politician.  Unless you were living under a rock for the entire of the 80’s and 90’s and even recently, you KNOW that he’s just about as far from a “MORAL” politician as you can get.  Not only did he smoke crack with a self-professed ‘crack whore’, but he accepted bribes, gave government contracts to family members, and ran the city into the ground.  Also, when did he dodge bullets during the civil rights movement?  He stood next to MLK a million years ago and that’s supposed to make the community he’s being been treating like shit forgive him for everything he’s done?  I think he’s ‘misremembering’ the bullets…those fly around the city he was mayor of ALL THE TIME.  So perhaps he was remembering DC…sans gay marriage…but full of drug wars and quickly climbing to the top of the murder rate.  Or maybe he was remembering getting robbed at gunpoint in June 2006.  Fortunately, his credit cards were all maxed out so they didn’t get very far on them-oh-that’s right!  He’s ALSO one of the millions of MORAL Americans who borrowed way more than they could ever pay back.  Also, how many times has he been married?  FOUR.  FOUR TIMES.  HOW can SOMEONE WHO’S BEEN MARRIED FOUR TIMES EVEN OPEN THEIR MOUTH TO TALK ABOUT THE SANCTITY OF MARRIAGE???

“Gaythering” storm in response to NOM’s gathering storm of lies and actors

22 04 2009

In response to NOM’s gathering storm commercial, a group of actors has crafted a response.  This quick video does a great job of pointing out why the other ad is so insane and inane.  The ad is almost as funny as a Republican mailing I saw that talked about a “Gay Militant Army Marching on Washington!”  I immediately thought of the pride parade in Dupont Circle and a float of gay guys in cut-off camo’s…not exactly a militant army attacking DC…unless you mean with their fabulous dance moves and infectious happiness.

Gov. Patterson to give gay marriage a second go at the NY State legislature

14 04 2009

Today Governor Paterson announced that he would be sending same-sex marriage legislation back to the legislature.  Gov. Spitzer sent similar legislation which passed the Assembly but stalled out in the Senate.  If the bill passes, NY could be the fifth state to legalize same-sex marriage by the end of June!  June is a beautiful month for weddings :D

Vermont joins Iowa, Connecticut, and Massachusetts in legalizing Same Sex Marriage

7 04 2009

Yay Vermont!

Vermont became the first state to legalize same sex marriage via their legislature.  The state House and Senate voted overwhelmingly to override Governor’s veto of a gay marriage bill.  Congratulations Vermont.  Umm…New York?  Anyone?  Wtf is going on?  It’s not enough to just accept other state’s marriages…we need to legalize same sex marriage in our state.  There is no reason that our state’s citizens should have to travel out of state to get marriage.

MA, CT and Iowa! Add Iowa to the List of states that allow gay marriage!

3 04 2009

 

CONGRATULATIONS IOWA!  And to my friends Mike and John who are getting married this weeekend!  I hadn’t been following the story so I was surprised to learn that Iowa joined Connecticut and Massachusetts today to become the third state with gay marriage…  Hopefully more states will follow suit.  I still really don’t understand people who are ‘against’ gay marriage…I have yet to hear a good/sane reason to be against it.  What possible good could ever come of denying a group of people their basic human rights?  It just doesn’t make any sense to me.

Truer words were never typed…

2 04 2009

No…there is nothing that can prepare you for the C Me Dance trailer…not even the Bruno trailer which was recently released.  As excited as I am to see Bruno…this moving looks…well…amazing.  Be SURE to sign the petition to bring it to a theater near you.  Sadly, NYC is filled with heathens and devil worshippers so it’s highly unlikely I’ll be able to see it…for two weeks when it goes to DVD after it’s quick stop in theaters.  The videogum kids do an excellent job of exploring this movie’s awesomeness.  Especially the dad’s line…I’m going to try and say that as often as possible this weekend at my first gay wedding!  I’m sure I’ll be REALLY popular.  So I will C U Later.  But I have questions that only this film can answer…such as, since we does the devil hate dancing?  I thought that’s where illegitimate babies came from?  Clearly I need to watch and LEARN and BELIEVE!  Just in time for Easter too!
