Creep of the Week: The Becket Fund for Religious Liberty
Did you know that gays are rioting across the country against the Mormons? Oh, you know how gays are. Do something to spite them, like passing an anti-marriage amendment in California, and before you know it, we're all, "Bitch, it is ON!" And then [...]
Creep of the Week: Ted Haggard
Guess who's back, back again? Shady's back, tell a friend… While I'm sure Eminem never intended to write Ted Haggard's comeback theme, I simply can't help but think of Haggard singing Eminem's song "Without Me" as I read about Haggard's return to [...]
Community gathers for 9th Annual Transgender Day of Remembrance
FERNDALE – Nearly 70 people filled the rows at Metropolitan Community Church of Detroit on the bitterly cold evening of Nov. 21 to commemorate Transgender Day of Remembrance. The event, held each year, is held for the LGBT community and allies to [...]
Creep of the Week: Mike Huckabee
It's never too soon for 2008 presidential also-rans to begin running again, and that's just what ultra conservative Republican Mike Huckabee seems to be doing as we speak. On Nov. 18 Huckabee appeared on The View crowing about how proud he is of [...]
Creep of the Week: James Hartline
Smokey The Bear said it best: "Only YOU can prevent forest fires." Apparently, you can also start them, just by being gay. And no, not because you look smokin' hot in your 2Xist boxer briefs. No, it's because God hates you. And so he's set [...]
Creep of the Week: Maggie Gallagher
"Biology is destiny." In other words, if you have a penis you are destined to take apart clock radios and shoot squirrels with a BB gun and will want to have penis/vagina sex with your lawfully wedded wife. If you have a vagina you are destined to [...]
Creep of the Week: Brad Dacus
I am not a Jew. Nor am I a historical scholar. I've never been to Israel or Germany. I've never eaten Gefilte Fish or Sauerkraut. I wasn't even alive during World War II to the best of my knowledge. Still, I have to take issue with a guy when he [...]
Creep of the Week: Focus On the Family Action
Did you know when Barack Obama gets elected "porn will be available practically everywhere with no restrictions?" I didn't. That is, until I got schooled by Focus On the Family Action. "Porn for one and porn for all" is apparently part of the Obama [...]
Creep of the Week: Sarah Palin
Say what you want about Sarah Palin, but she held her own on Saturday Night Live over the weekend. She was doing what she does best, mind you: looking good while saying very little. But for a brief moment, live on Saturday night, Sarah Palin was [...]
Creep of the Week: Protectmarriage.com
Woe unto the scared shitless anti-gay conservative in a state like California. Ever since the courts gave the go-ahead to legal marriages for same-sex couples, folks who can only stomach the "one-penis+one-vagina=marriage" equation have been [...]
Creep of the Week: Arnold Schwarzenegger
May 22, 2009 will not be Harvey Milk Day in California. May 22, 1930 is, however, the day Milk was born. November 27, 1978 is the day he was assassinated, 11 months after becoming the first openly gay elected official in history. The bill to honor [...]
Choke' chokes
The Oxford American Dictionary defines the word "choke" as "hav(ing) severe difficulty in breathing because of a constricted or obstructed throat or a lack of air" and "fail(ing) to perform at a crucial point of a game or contest owing to a failure [...]
