RoadSurprise! GOP has nothing on the Fiscal Cliff: "The reality should be seeping in to viewers of the Sunday shows that the Republicans don’t have a game plan. They don’t have a single, specific proposal to avoid the fiscal cliff. And even if they had one, they don’t have a roadmap to get there."

Conducted in Spanish, the sessions are aimed at those who have emigrated, most illegally, from Latin American countries where violence toward gay and transgender people is common."

RoadA defense of Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn: "Unfortunately, Polo, and others who’ve jumped onto the anti-Gunn bandwagon, follow this by accusing Gunn of being some terribly close-minded person by doing exactly what they’ve just said it’s okay for him to do. It’s the internet reactionary version of “I’m not racist, but..,” because nothing Gunn has in the article comes off as anything more than mild joking and inoffensive plays on sexuality."

They also were the first same-sex male couple in Israel to have their legal right of adoption recognized."

RoadGay rights ordinances pushed in small Kentucky towns.

RobertsRoadSan Diego Union Tribune profiles San Diego County supervisor-elect Dave Roberts:"They wed on July 2, 2008, on the 17th day of a 142-day sliver of history when California legalized same-sex marriage and 18,000 gay or lesbian couples got hitched as the rest of us have for centuries: They just did. The state didn’t collapse into chaos or the Pacific Ocean. Life went on. Now, 15 years after they met at the Pentagon, Roberts and Oliver have adopted five children and might add a sixth — a baby — to the mix even as Roberts is preparing to be sworn into office in January."
