Pennsylvania has been part of history this week with a groundswell of action to successfully squelch the Marriage Protection Amendment (plus, our own Pgh Blog for Equality). Yeah, us! Today, eyes turned first to the Internet, then DC, then more to DC and now as I type … across the nation. The day started with […]
Bilerico has asked bloggers to “swarm” around ENDA, the Employment Non-Discrimination Act. House Speaker Pelosi is holding up this legislation which would provide employment protections based on sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression. Why We Need To Demand ENDA Now We know that Speaker Pelosi is sympathetic to our cause. Clearly, she needs encouragement, […]

As you recall, Metcalfe is running for Lt. Governor. In spite of his lofty looney ideals, he's also pragmatically running for his House seat, too. Cause powerful is as powerful does. Something like that. Metcalfe told the Post-Gazette that he isn't about to be some namby-pamby Lt. Governor. He'll govern like a man, for God's sake (literally). […]
I don't often pull over in the middle of the work day to make a phone call, but today was an exception.
