Pgh Lesbian Correspondents

I was horrified to the point of weeping when I sat in my office and caught a PG tweet about the brutal violation of the life of Jennifer Daugherty.

The New York Times interviewed Emily Ford, wife of candidate for the open Senate Seat from New York.  In this interview, she takes some credit for Ford's recent much lauded turnabout on LGBTQ issues. Already, some members of the Democratic establishment have accused him of reversing his opposition to same-sex marriage and to flipping from […]
