Lots of speculation tonight on Bill Peduto's decision to pull out of the mayoral primary race. Pgh Comet and the Admiral are just a few speculating that Peduto has a master plan to run as an Independent, couldn't raise enough money, or really did refuse to go negative. I've talked briefly with both Political Junkies tonight. […]
Earlier this week, I attended a community meeting to learn what Bill Peduto has to offer us here on the Northside. I must admit I was prepared to buy when I walked in the store, but I completely fell in love with the merchandise. I liked what he had to say about taxes, the gay […]
I missed this letter to the editor from Keith Kondrich of Swisshelm Park (the most Euro sounding neighborhood in Pittsburgh). Keith took exception with the supporters of Ann Coulter: That harmless little racial joke, that innocent sexual stereotype, that silly political epithet slowly numb us until discrimination, harassment and violence become commonplace, indeed socially acceptable. […]
OK, maybe it has just been a long day in the trenches. Because I can't understand Reg Henry's latest column. In what I think is meant to be irony, he positions her “babe” status against her man qualities — being a hateful jerk. I have a question. How is it that Ann Coulter is so […]
Anti-war protesters chained together, their arms covered by tar and plastic pipe, blocked the entrances to Carnegie Mellon University's National Robotics Engineering Center in Lawrenceville this morning. About 50 people were involved, including those chained together, those bringing them coffee and food, a makeshift band and other supporters. This is the type of civil […]
Here's what she said today at the Conservative Political Action Conference. h/t 2 Political Junkies: I was going to have a few comments on the other Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards, but it turns out you have to go into rehab if you use the word ‘faggot,’ so I — so kind of an impasse, […]
Andrew Anthos, a 72 year old Michigan gay man who was viciously beaten with a pipe outside his apartment, has died from his injuries. He survived for several days, paralyzed and barely able to breathe. Here's my post on the original attack. This man was riding home from the public library on a public bus. […]
Maybe its just me, but isn't the mayoral race important to the region, too? Luke Ravenstahl isn't exactly Mr. Progressive per 2 Political Junkies on issues like choice, contraception, free speech, open government, blah, blah, blah. I know the muckety muck rich Riccardi loving homos embrace these Social Conservative Democrats for all they are worth, but […]
We here at Lesbian Central are pleased that our good friend and all-around groovy middle aged white guy John McIntire wants to expand his repetoire of gay jokes beyond the phrase “butt fuck.” He now seems hung up on kissing (lesbian kissing, Snickers eatin' men kissing, Ravenstahl's ass kissing …) but that's movement in the […]
h/t Pam's House Blend File this under … huh. Discovery Institute is pleased to co-present with CityClub of Seattle and the Seattle World Affairs Council a luncheon featuring U.S. Senator John McCain. The Discovery Institute is a right-wing think tank with a well established track record as a proponent/defendant of Intelligent Design. Think Progress also […]
