Peduto endorses Joe Hoeffel. “Joe Hoeffel is a progressive leader who will fight for Pennsylvania,” Peduto said. “I am supporting Joe, because he understands the challenges facing communities like Pittsburgh, and he isn’t afraid to make the tough decisions to change the direction of our economy for the benefit of working families. He has a […]

From the Orlando Sentinel comes a thoughtful story on an impending court ruling regarding the constitutionality of a statewide ban on LGBT adoption. Florida is the only state that outright bans adoptions by gay people, although it allows gays and lesbians to be foster parents. In November 2008, Miami-Dade Circuit Judge Cindy Lederman ruled that […]

The Philly Gay News is reporting that the federal judge who recently issued an injuction in a case involving the City of Philadelphia and the Boy Scouts was himself a Scout official. The twist is that his time with the Scouts did overlap his time on Philadelphia Common Pleas Court.  Philadelphia has been providing a City […]

Major fail on the part of CBS with regard to accepting faith based advertising. You might recall back 2006, the United Church of Christ wanted to run a series of ads reaching out to the “unchurched” with a bit of pizzaz.  CBS rejected the advertising, deeming them “too controversial” for network television.  Here is one […]

I am so tired of reporting on this, but I suppose I must. An Evangelical Lutheran church in Monroeville will vote this month whether to remain in its denomination, the first Lutheran church in Southwestern Pennsylvania to take such a step. The Jan. 31 vote at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church comes largely in reaction to […]

Yesterday, I wrote about the ACDC's failure to put information about committe folks on the website.  Blah, blah, blah … accountability, transparency, connections.  All that jazz. Today … the information is available on their website. Here's the link. It is actually the same link as in my original blog post so I need to fix […]

As you may know, California is the scene of a critical trial on Proposition 8 right now.  It was originally supposed to be broadcast, but the US Supreme Court nixed that.  Your best bet is to follow the live Twitter feed vis a vis #Prop8.  Contributors/observers include the National Center for Lesbian Rights and the Advocate […]

Dear Cat, There is no such thing as gay sex. Any sexual act performed by LGBTQ persons can be performed by straight persons.  Anal sex is not gay sex.  Oral sex is not gay sex. Swinging from a trapeze wearing a dildo is not gay sex.  It is simply sex.  In today's column you made this slip […]

Over the past four years, I've made no bones about my dissatisfaction with Allegheny County Democratic Committee.  Back in 2007, I tried to get information on my committeepersons.  First attempt.   Received a call back with my particular information, but no systemic response as how to access this information independently. I received another phone call with […]
