More News stories I've been missing.

I was WAY off on this guy... And I'm glad I was! One of only TWO republicans worth liking!Arnold: Let 'Em Eat Wedding Cake : "The governor until now has given no indication how he might receive the measure if it passes the legislature being put forward by Assembly Speaker Fabian Nunez (D-Los Angeles) and Assemblyman Mark Leno (D-San Francisco).
'To me, it's a very positive sign that he's saying that,' Nunez told the Los Angeles Times. Senate President John Burton (D-San Francisco) said the governor's position made sense.
'Why would anybody care,' he said, 'except the two people getting married or the spurned lover of one of the two people getting married?'"
...And also...
California governor not opposed to same-sex marriage: "According to the Los Angeles Times, Schwarzenegger's exchange at the restaurant was with 31-year-old Peter Renfro, a Sacramento Democrat, who has a male domestic partner. When asked by Renfro if he had moral objection to gay marriage, the governor said, 'My opinion is that I don't care one way or the other,' the newspaper reported."

Man, who does he think he's speaking for? Not me! I'm a Catholic who SUPPORTS gay marriage.High-ranking U.S. bishop backs marriage-ban amendment : "The president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic bishops on Friday endorsed a proposed constitutional amendment that would ban gay marriage. He urged all Roman Catholics to lobby for its passage."

Wow, surprise.Nation's Mayors To Vote On Gay Marriage Resolution: "(Boston, Massachusetts) The U.S. Conference of Mayors will vote Monday on a resolution that opposes a federal constitutional amendment banning gay marriage."

This is ALSO a surprise. The Calvinist church HAS CERTAINLY come a long way, hasn't it. Not only are the Scotts cute, they're also becomming more gay friendly. Maybe some of the cuter Scotts will become more friendly with me!Gay Rights Advocate To Lead Presbyterian Church: "(Richmond, Virginia) A peace activist who supports the inclusion of gays in the ministry was elected to lead the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A) for the next two years.
The selection of Rick Ufford-Chase as moderator comes as the church prepares for a fresh round of debate at its annual convention on whether to repeal a ban on gay pastors.
Ufford-Chase, 40, may be the youngest person to serve as moderator of the 2.4 million-member denomination, church officials said. He was installed as moderator of the group's 216th General Assembly on Saturday making him the first layperson to hold the unpaid position since 1999."

GOOOD NEWS!!!! And possibly a telltale sign for OUR OWN election!Liberals Squeak By As Canada Elects Minority Gov't
: "(Ottawa) A week ago Canada's governing Liberals were being written off as pollsters predicted a Conservative landslide in Monday's general election, but as the Conservative Party policies on same-sex marriage, health care, and defense became apparent, voters became nervous."

THIS is F'in sad. What an eye-opener. Whoever said we shouldn't force our "lifestyle" into schools needs to talk to a kid who's been attacked. About 75 percent of schools fail to protect GLBT kids: "LGBT students are completely unprotected in schools in 42 states while only truly 'safe' in two, announced the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) in a report released Monday."
...This goes along too...

As he began going through the pictures he discovered photos had been taken of him while he lay unconscious in the hospital. Photos of his genitals.
He immediately filed a police complaint alleging 'unlawful sexual contact'.
'I was mortified,' Bradford said in the police report. And, asked 'what else did they do?'"
...of course, I'm also the guy who's closeted at work. Sigh.
