Washington state introduces gay marriage bill.
Designers disrobe: First it was Tom Ford; now Dolce & Gabbana take it off for Steven Klein in W magazine.
New Jersey says clerics are not required by law to perform same-sex union ceremonies: "In a letter to the state registrar, Joseph A. Komosinski, Attorney General Stuart Rabner wrote that clergy members could decline to perform civil union ceremonies without violating the law, if performing such ceremonies would go against their 'sincerely held religious beliefs.'"
How Nancy Pelosi's womb is advancing the gay agenda...
Spoiler: New Brazilian Lost hottie Rodrigo Santoro reveals his character's fate in the upcoming TV season.
Outfits in reverse: Alan Cumming and Grant Shaffer's first wedding photo.
Bush plans veto of stem-cell research bill just passed by the House. Kos: "Let's recap the utter absurdity of remaining conservative opposition to Embryonic Stem Cell Research. You're holding a cryogenic container with a blastocyst inside. It's a ball of cells (HT: PoliticAl2008) roughly the size of the period at the end of this sentence. You have a choice of putting it in an incinerator or placing it in a petri dish and using it for research. George Bush and his shrinking base somehow reason, using unknown, convoluted pseudo-logic, that destruction by fire is saving it while the petri dish represents destroying it."
Gay porn stars team up for anti-meth campaign.

Andy, do you mean "take it off for Steven Klein"? If not, that reads interestingly ;).

Cory,
Yes I forgot the word "off". However, I don't think that the other sentence would necessarily be wrong. ;-)

In a secular state priests shouldn't have any legal authority anyway.

I don't watch Lost, but I do stare longingly at production stills of him from Charlie's Angels and Love, Actually.
He could spoil the next ten seasons of Lost, Greys, and Heroes as far as I'm concerned, as long as he does it in person, here at my house, in a pair of boxers or less.

I don't like the new meth campaign. I want to see bill boards of people wasting away and diseased because they are so cracked out. Kind of like the nasty smoking ads back in the 80's.

Can we note the irony of how the Save the Blastocyte crowd are usually also pro-war, pro-capital punishment and vehemently against gun control.
Life is sacred, it seems, until it dares to crawl out of the womb, then you're free to bomb, hang and shoot it back into the arms of the Lord.

It's pretty obvious that a Catholic priest would not be required to marry two jews (or vice versa) despite the anti-discrimination laws on the books covering religion, so the same would apply to gay marriage. Why did anyone need clarification on this?

Much like religion should not be able to hinder gay marriage, gay rights should not force religious establishments to provide our marriages. There's nothing wrong with that New Jersey ruling. That's how it SHOULD be.

You know, I could really go the rest of my life without seeing Domenico Dolce or Stefano Gabbana...especially without clothing...ever again.

GROSS. Just GROSS.

Those porn stars are truly role models for anyone wanting to live a healthy life. Pleazzze.
"Forget the Meth, take steroids so you feel comfident enough to become a porn star" would be more appropriate.

HA! I love the pic where he's reclining with the high heels on. LOL!
And is this the one that said gays shouldn't adopt?
