Just a nice and happy update in the case of Seth Stambaugh, the Beaverton student teacher who was kicked out of the district after telling a student he was gay… and then reinstated after he got a lawyer and threatened to sue the district for discrimination. This week, the Beaverton School District unanimously approved adding […]
Homo
The People’s Choice…
…is an openly gay man with a hot husband and two babies. Seriously, haters, it’s over. Every dime you spend fighting gay civil equality—how much did you spend fighting the repeal of DADT? how many hungry could have been fed?—is a dime wasted. It’s over. (Video via JMG.)

Last Minute Christmas Shopping to Do?
Don’t shop at Target. The “hip” retailer got into trouble when it tossed 150K at a rabid—and ultimately losing—GOP candidate for governor in Minnesota.

DADT Is History
“Yes, we did,” said the president. Video via Sullivan, along with the context for the comments Obama makes in the video: Obama told the emotional story of Lloyd Corwin, a member of Patton’s third army who was injured during the Battle of the Bulge.

DADT: One Important Step Closer to History
As Andrea noted in GMN, the vote was 63-33, breaking Old Man McCain’s filibluster with three votes to spare.

Conservative Christians Are Always Saying That If We Allow Gay Marriage and Let Gays and Lesbians Serve Openly In the Military Then One Day Everyone Will Be Gay and Then the Human Race Will Go Exinct
Looks like they don’t need to worry about that anymore—thanks to science! Using stem cell technology, reproductive scientists in Texas, led by Dr. Richard R. Berhringer at the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, have produced male and female mice from two fathers…. The achievement of two-father offspring in a species of mammal could be a step […]
