I'm BAAAAAAAaack

Sorry Pumpkins..I know some of you were wondering where I'd run off too and some of you were, no doubt, hoping I'd fallen off the planet..well I didn't and now I'm back.

I go away for a week and the country sinks deeper into the anti-gay bigot-ridden cesspool. Sheez!

NY court says no to 44 gay couples, I guess they were afraid to be called "activist judges". Although one bright spot...that court's Chief Judge Judy Kaye..we like her for standing up for us (unlike some people we know...right Mike).

Georgia says, nope the Amendment banning gay marriage and civil unions does not violate the 2 subject rule because both subjects are germaine to a single issue. Oh well...it's Georgia, they thought slavery was OK too until Sherman kicked their ass.

California Governor, Schwantawhatever says he will veto a gay marriage bill because the elected representatives of the people are going against Prop 22 that was voted on by the people. Governor Terminator has said in the past that the courts should decide this issue. (I thought the Republicans don't want the activist courts to decide this...did someone not get the memo???) With any luck the California courts won't be afraid if someone calls the "activist".

Washington is STILL waiting to hear if gay marriage will become legal there...what's it been like, 6 years now right? (OK only 1 year.) Boy you folks in Washington State are sure a patient bunch. Good Luck.

Folks in New Jersey are waiting to hear if they will get gay marriage. Being that NJ is the arguably most liberal state in the country, there's a good chance. Crossed fingers for all you Jersey Boys and Girls and Undecided!!!

And from overseas...

Pope Nazi I visited Spain for 26 hours and says Families are good!!! (unless they are gay families). Perhaps the (ex???)Nazi and Fred (I'm the looney protesting funerals) Phelps should form a new denomination...United Church of the Fag Hating Bigots.

And Finally....

Rabbi in Jerusalem calls for VIOLENCE to be used against Gays and Lesbians at World Pride to keep us from "infecting the holy city". Followers of Christ (the ultimate pacifist) and Allah, are calling for VIOLENCE to be used against the celebrants of World Pride in Isreal. Let me quote Jesus for a moment "Let he among you who is without sin cast the first stone". Point made? Good! Now shut the fuck up and leave us alone to party. And people wonder why I think religion should be outlawed.

Anyway it's good to be back!! (Right Mike?)
