Hall-la-lou-lou-ing for Oklahoma's Senator Tom Coburn: Congress's Worst Person? As Henry II is alleged to have said to his henchmen in regard to the Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Becket, who had been blocking some of Henry's governing and expropriating plans, "Is there no one to rid me of this meddlesome priest?" Odd isn't it how frequently, almost inevitably, religious piety and the process of making civil law become nearly conjoined twins.

How to Spell Equality? I before E except after C. L before G except Before B? Why should we develop these sensitivities about spellings and acronyms? Gayness is about having the right to privacy to exercise our affectional and emotional bonds as we like with consenting adults. Gayness is about having the same rights as any other man or woman who has chosen opposite-gender marriage or co-habitation, with or without progeny.

Jesse Helms, now deceased, the role model for Sally Kern? The glass homophobic ceilings, built by the backwardly religious or the double-speaking politicians of any party, won't break unless they're pushed. What bible-bangers pound in their own or others privacy is none of my business and I want them to leave me and my LGBT brothers and sisters alone!

Hungry, Will Work for Pansies Who could have known that the green of grass and living plants could mutate into the barren, ugly desert of homophobia and religious intolerance.

I've heard JFK, and Mitt, you're no JFK By the starkest verbal contrast imaginable President Kennedy speaks of the right to attend church, or NOT to attend church.

Just How Vulgar Will a Desperate Candidate Get? Just as violent rape of women by men is described as an attempt at power, with nothing to do with lust, so is the use of sexual penetration by antagonists used to inculcate their ideas of power and superiority at the basest level of human society.

Must Magazines be Dumbed Down to the Level of the Limbaugh Listener? Some of us are being scared witless and s***less by the counter-intelligence tactics of the right-wing. I think we need to leave behind the right-wing paranoia and get on with electing Democrats all across the country.

Just as Pinochet, who recently died, was hounded for HIS war crimes... Plan our strategy, Bide our time. Revenge is best served cold.
