I would like to think that I am a kind person. Yeah, yeah, I am a bleeding heart. But, I am somewhat of a contradiction, because at times I have no filter. I open my mouth and say what comes to mind. This normally happens when I see or feel something that I think is unjust.I would like to think that I am a kind person. Yeah, yeah, I am a bleeding heart. But,... more

As the daughter of former President Bill Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, it would almost be shocking to see her not pursue a political career.
But at the moment, Clinton is an employee of NBC, where she has been serving as a non-political correspondent, and it would seem that her superiors were none too happy about a couple of pre-election ads Clinton made in support of marriage equality.

NOTE: NSFW - Photos contain nudity. -- Details are still coming in and we will have updates as they become available.
A group of ACT UP AIDS activists shed every stitch of clothing and marched arm-in-arm into Speaker John Boehner’s Capitol Hill office this morning. The group began chanting:
“Boehner, Boehner, Don’t be a Dick! Budget Cuts will Make Us Sick!”

The "family values" contingency: Yes, the sanctity of life, marriage and family – except when they transport a minor to a foreign country in order to sexually exploit and abuse them, or give a married man a free pass to cheat on his wife, or dump their sick wives to marry another and blame their “patriotism” for their weakness. The entire movement is a monumental exercise in hypocrisy on a grand scale.

WATCH: The look of pity on the face the mother who utters the word, “Where’s your mommy?” is a stronger message than the words she speaks. In that split second of facial recognition of empathy, the viewer bonds with the mother and inherently also wants to comfort and protect the poor pitiful forlorn looking boy who is helpless and alone. Then, using a device from a horror film, we see the feet and legs of the abhorrent perpetrators behind the young boy. These are the bastards who have robbed this innocent injured child of a guardian angel of a mother: two gay men. Well, actually, we surmise they are gay because one of them is wearing Italian leather loafers...

Simple. Direct. Honest.
That is how we would describe Maureen Walsh’s TV advertisement in support of same sex marriage in Washington. She speaks not only as mother of a gay child, but also a Washington State Representative and a registered Republican. Rep. Walsh is speaking in defense of gay marriage and against a referendum on Washington’s ballot, Referendum 74, that seeks to overturn the state’s Civil Marriage Equality act signed into law by Governor Christine Gregoire this past February.
Yes, rational, compassionate, and practical Republicans still exist.

George Takei, former crew member of the Star Trek USS Enterprise and LGBT activist, has recently posted a video on YouTube about this year’s election. Takei explores his tragic childhood memories of a Japanese-American Internement Camp after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, and applauds the nation for the progress we have made.

Thanks, but no chick...
While I am certainly glad that Chick-fil-A will no longer be funneling massive amounts of cash into organizations actively working to deny me my Constitutionally given human rights, I definitely will not be eating at Chick-fil-A soon. They have not changed their minds. They are only doing this because they lost money, and they are in damage control mode. They even got desperate enough to have a fake facebook profile in order to try and quell the backlash. But it's important to examine what they did and said today....

Baltimore Ravens linebacker Brendon Ayanbadejo recently spoke out in favor of legalizing marriage equality in the state of Maryland via a ballot initiative. Ayanbadejo’s outspoken support was not without consequence, however. State delegate Rev. Emmett C. Burns, Jr. wrote to Ayanbaejo’s boss Baltimore Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti, asking him to “inhibit such expressions from your employee,”

Resolution to a story The Stew has been following for two years:
-------
We hear about it all the time – a member of the LGBT community attracts the attention of the wrong homophobe in power and suddenly life becomes a living hell for that person. This time, the perpetrator of that hell, former Michigan Attorney General Andrew Shirvell, will pay big time.

Ann Romney recently told Entertainment Tonight that the ABC hit “Modern Family” was her favorite television show. It seems a strange choice considering Mitch and Cam are as far from Mormon family values as you can get. We aren’t the only ones to think that. The show’s creator, Steve Levitan, responded to Ann’s confession via Twitter.
