NOM is a Classless Piece of Shit 3: Revenge of the Snits
It’s been one week since the election, and boy, the Internet has been a tree of delicious, ripe fruit for gay-friendly people! The whirlwind re-election of Barack Obama, the hobbling of the Tea Party, the self-destruction of poisonous GOP puppet master Karl Rove, the clean sweep of gay marriage initiatives… Let me just say that...
NOM is a Classless Piece of Shit 2: None of Your Gay Business
I’m often misunderstood as a politics man. I have a mild understanding of it, and an even milder passion for it, and this very website covers gay politics. So why do I not consider myself a politics man? Because I detest it. Like Eddie Valiant in Roger Rabbit, I unfortunately have to work in the...
SOTU STFU
D.C. State of the Union time! It’s like Presidential New Year’s Resolutions. A lot of news people have blathered that Obama isn’t going to get done practically any of the things he says he’ll get done. Exactly! Just like a New Year’s resolution.

Hey History!
In what might be the Ballsiest News of the Week, it appears that in 2008, Orson Scott Card, author of the impenetrable “Ender’s Game” sci-fi ouvre and board member of the National Organization of Marriage, wrote a novella adaptation of Shakespeare’s immortal HAMLET. Card said that his inspiration was to update Shakespeare to make the...
Gay New York Roundup
Yesterday, New York’s gay marriages began. How many gay marriages were performed that day? An unheard of 823. An out of those, only seven involved priests being held at gunpoint while my catechism teacher had those “Clockwork Orange” pliers put in her eyeballs. Even Michele Bachmann likes those odds.
