This week, the man who is slowly creeping up the list of men the lesbians love (McIntire, Peduto, Dayvoe, Lamb and Norman) takes us down the rainbow brick road and shows us that things just might be a little better. Chris Potter of The City Paper writes … Pittsburgh will have a lot to celebrate […]
Courtesy of the Value All Families Coalition and Equality Advocates Pennsylvania… (Harrisburg, PA) –Legislation prohibiting discrimination on the bases of sexual orientation and gender identity or expression in housing, employment, and public accommodations was introduced in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives today. A press conference was held in the capitol to announce the bill’s introduction. […]
Luke Ravenstahl acted like a fool and lied to the public. Sad, but predictable. Hundreds of words have piled up around the Burghosphere calling him to task for his shameless disregard for truth (and his job). Meanwhile, five children in Larimer were killed in a horrible house fire. Someone blamed a non-existent teenage babysitter. Now it […]
Caught a story in the PG this morning stating the Peduto won't retract his accusations that the Pittsburgh Organizing Group (POG) is responsible for vandalizing several Shadyside businesses. Peduto claims they fit the profile, given recent acts of vandalism at a military recruiting station and Carnegie Mellon University. The most recent acts were tied to […]

President Bush said he will veto any bill that would include gays and lesbians in this existing hate crime law. His […]
Sometimes, people do pay attention. I just now received a call from a legislative staffer with State Representative Chelsa Wagner's office. My post to the Run, Baby, Run email list about Democratic Committee reps caught his eye, particularly the part where I stated that Pgh City Councilwoman Tonya Payne is the only elected official I've […]
Today is June 4, which marks the end of Stephen Glassman's five year term as chair of the Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission. Governor Ed Rendell is expected to nominate Glassman for another term. Diane Gramley and her bastion of bigots are hopping mad about this and have churned out the hate literature fast enough to make […]
Ledcat informs that the ACDC has returned my telephone call and left the names of my comitteefolks on our voice mail. One is the lady I identified in my earlier post. I'll learn the other person's identity tomorrow when I get back to da 'burgh. I am going to call them back and find out […]
