Those wild and wacky Baptists are at it again, deeming Sunday June 4 “Marriage Protection Sunday” to rally the troops for the debate on the Federal Anti-Gay Marriage Amendment. From the Southern Baptist Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission: “Supporters of traditional marriage need to bombard their senators’ offices with e-mails and phone calls,” ERLC President […]
SA-TUR-DAY NIGHT! This weekend, the Pittsburgh Chapter of GLSEN (Gay, Lesbian and Straight Educatio Network) will host the Safe Prom for All at the Westin Hotel Convention Center.

In another overt example of homophobic law enforcement, Allegheny County police are “stepping up patrols” around a South Park bathroom suspected of being the location of many a gay tryst. The Post-Gazette report hits the classic homophobic note — the site's proximity to a children's playground. Because you cannot report on gay sex without making […]
She just can't keep her mouth shut. No matter that Penn State found her guilty of discimination on the basis of sexual orientation. No matter that she got off with a little slap on the wrist.

Even Laura Bush is not spared their fury when the AFA smells a whiff of tolerance. From their May 17 press release: Homosexuals have a right to live their lives as they […]
Marlene Lott of Butler County picked up her pen to share her thoughts on gay marriage with the readers of the Post-Gazette. I want my grandchildren to know that their grandmother did what she could to leave a wholesome America for them to live in. Ms. Lott trots out the same tired old connections between […]
I think a few PG readers must have slept in on the Sundays when their pastors talked about visiting the imprisoned and other Jesus references to compassion for the less fortunate. Last week, the paper ran a feature on mothers who are in jail. It was harsh and difficult to read, especially when a woman admitted […]
In yet another ridiculous attempt to court younger readers, the PG's Cat Specter has gotten herself a makeover. At least her photo has. The Betty Crocker 'do is gone. Instead, Cat has for a very predictable Pittsburgh look – Yinzerette skeeve. You know what I mean — pseudo skanky hair and the undernourished look of someone who […]
