CHRIS CHRISTIE: Anti-gay NJ gubernatorial candidate loves GWB: "There's no mystery to the fact that I was appointed to this job because, in part, I had a relationship with the President of the United States. Anybody who receives a political appointment -- I am a political appointee -- there's going to be some measure of politics involved with that appointment."

Brad Pitt to Marriage Equality Foes: 'Let's Stop the Nonsense'

Pitt

Brad Pitt appeared on Real Time with Bill Maher on Friday and elaborated on his recent remarks to the Today show that if he were to run for Mayor of New Orleans, he'd be running on the no religion, gay marriage, legalization of marijuana platform.

Said Pitt: "You know, I grew up in a religious family, in a religious community and it just doesn't make sense to me. It just doesn't work for me in the long run. I never wanted to step on anyone else's religion and their beliefs -- that's what's great about our country -- until I started seeing it defining policy. ... Like gay marriage, you have a group of people telling other people how to live their lives, and you can't do that....I just say you have to, you really have to check what country you're living in because the freedom that allows you to practice religion is the same freedom you're stepping on. That's not right. And I want to add that if there was a nation of gay married couples who were telling you you couldn't practice your religion, I'd be speaking up for you too. So, let's stop the nonsense."

Cogswell says there’s a possibility that his fractured orbital bone could pinch a nerve or a muscle and require surgery. Cogswell’s friend had with scrapes and bruises."

road.jpg Gay Mormons reach out to LDS leaders: "They want the church to teach Mormon families to love and respect their gay sons and daughters, help gays and lesbians feel safe at church and to reconcile their sexual orientation and their spirituality. Affirmation had planned to make these points Monday when they were scheduled to meet with two LDS officials from the church's social services, but last month the church postponed the meeting indefinitely, said Dave Melson, Affirmation's assistant executive director, on Saturday. Instead, the LDS gay support group will present its proposals to the public at a Monday press conference."

Instead of www.sussex.police.uk, the flyers carried the address www.sussexpolice.co.uk - a rogue site not linked in any way to the force."

The high court's brief ruling said the prison authorities' decision 'falls within the scope of their rights, duties and powers'."

road.jpg Bravo plans for life post-Project Runway: "Another ingredient in Bravo's success is that 'we're a very gay-friendly network,' Berwick says. Back during the late '90s, she continues, 'we saw the impact in the ratings of gay-themed movies and a series we ran called 'My Fire Island,' ' an acquisition from England's Channel 4 about a gay couple and a lesbian couple and their summer-house time-share. So when the idea for 'Queer Eye for the Straight Guy' came across Berwick's desk in 2003, she didn't have to agonize before flashing the green light. Within a year, 'Queer Eye' had taken off like a comet, becoming the biggest hit in Bravo's history and bringing lots of viewers to the channel for the first time."

road.jpg Bill Maher on the Olympics: "The Olympics are pretty gay. Have you seen the opening ceremonies? Makes Cirque de Soleil look like a John Wayne movie. It's become so feminized. We have to find out that the javelin thrower is fighting diabetes and he was brought up in an orphanage."
