While Stumbling this evening I came across the web site for the Million Fag March. This is a peaceful assembly of gay and straight people alike, united against the hatred and bigotry of Fred Phelps and the Westboro Baptist Church.

The March (MFM) will take place at 11:00AM March 30 at the Westboro Baptist Church. The address is 3701 SW 12th St
Topeka, KS 66604.

William and I are planning on attending and encourage our readers to do the same and to spread the word about this event. We live in Topeka and regularly see the hatred and intolerance spread by the Phelps and the apathy of most of the community to do anything about it. I hope that you can join the assembly on March 30. Put it on your calendars!

Rudy “9/11″ Guiliani has proven again that you cannot trust Republicans to keep their word because they are willing to sell out everything for a shot at the GOP nomination. Mr. 9/11′s most recent sellout was on the issue of gay rights, which Rudy once supported. I have read today on Bloggernista that Rudy is [...]

I found this list on BW.org there was no attribution as he found it somewhere else. I thought it was very pertinent to this site and concisely addresses the most common arguments against gay marriage in a very funny way. Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and [...]
