Elinor Burkett Pulls a Kanye West at 2010 Oscars – Elinor Burkett – Zimbio:

Before the makers of Music by Prudence, director Roger Ross Williams and producer Elinor Burkett, arrived at the Academy Awards tonight, they probably should have worked out who was going to say what if they had to give an acceptance speech. Elinor Burkett: the white female Kanye West?

As it was, many are already saying that Elinor Burkett “pulled a Kanye West,” by interrupting Williams in the middle of his speech. Twitter reactions were swift and against Burkett by a long shot.

boy culture: Taken For A Ride: Exclusive NEW Information On Ashburn’s Arrest:

While I know the identity of the man I believe was in the car, I’m not revealing it yet—I wrote him to ask for a confirmation or a denial, but the only reaction from him so far was his decision to hastily delete some indiscreet Facebook status updates (reproduced within this post) and take his account private.

This married Senator was bold enough to be seen in gay bars with men half his age, yet nobody said anything. Why does the gay community enable people like him?

Whiskey Fire: disputes Maggie Gallagher illogical claims:

Maggie Gallagher, who loves homosexuals except in the “they deserve equal rights” sense, is very oppressed because her Jesus doesn’t want people she doesn’t know in a place she doesn’t live in to do things she won’t ever know about that wouldn’t ever affect her. This makes no sense, maybe, but still, it makes her weepy. To drive her point home, she says if gays can get married in Washington DC, Jews will be killed in Massachusetts.

D.C. begins licensing same-sex marriages – washingtonpost.com:

The line to get into the marriage bureau was composed of racially diverse couples of all generations and appeared to include more women than men. By the end of the day, 151 couples had filed to be married, far surpassing the dozen or so applications the bureau typically collects on a single day. Some brought their children or spoke of the importance of their change in status to their sons and daughters.

Pam’s House Blend just broke the news that gay marriage foes are trying to block the law by appealing to the U.S. Supreme Court. This is not good news. My guess is that the U.S. Supreme Court will block the law and require a referendum on the issue. The delay will mean that the anticipated Republican Congress will block the law if the referendum fails. This will be as easy as Bush vs. Gore.

Having exhausted just about every legal avenue to stop loving, committed couples in the District of Columbia from being able to marry, opponents of equal marriage have reportedly filed an 11th hour appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court asking the Justices to halt Wednesday’s issuance of marriage licenses to same-sex couples.

I honestly wish someone else can report on Bishop Harry “Butt Pirate” Jackson Jr.’s (of Beltsville, Maryland) anti-gay crusade but somebody has to do it. Now this totally fucked up “Bishop” is holding secret meetings in D.C. called “Pastors Standing for Marriage”. The group is nothing more than an anti-gay hate group for inner city African-American ministers. And also a perfect excuse to leave their wives for a couple of days of Ted Haggard style partying.

Lucky for me, some bigoted pastor named Garland Hunt of Atlanta, Georgia tweeted the following from Bishop Harry “Butt Pirate” Jackson’s secret Mormon-funded gay bashing junket in DC.

# In great meeting of Pastors Standing for Marriage in Washington DC. Marriage must be only between a Man and a Woman. about 14 hours ago from UberTwitter

Whoever this Garland Hunt preacher is, he has seriously fucked up values. He praises Michael Vick the animal abuser on Twitter but bashes glbt with his profoundly stupid anti-gay tweets. His Twitter bio states that he is a “Member, Georgia State Board of Pardons and Paroles”. That is disturbing. Garland Hunt is in charge of letting people out of prison but is himself a low-level piece of trash who gets off on taking fundamental rights away from hard-working people. Judy Garland Hunt needs to go fuck his church’s piano player and get out of D.C. politics. I hope prisoners file complaints against this obviously hateful minister who is not more qualified to sit on a parole board than a member of the Klan.

Why would 39 US Congressmen sign an amicus brief in a discriminatory case that is spearheaded by voter fraudster Bishop “Butt Pirate” Harry Jackson Jr? Even if Bishop Harry Jackson Jr. and his trailer trash evangelical backers are successful at forcing a vote on same-sex marriage, there is no guarantee a ban will pass. DC residents are sophisticated enough not to listen to a ghetto trash preacher from Beltsville, Maryland who fraudulently claims to live in Washington, DC. The people will vote and same-sex marriage will be legal.

The good thing in all of this is Bishop Harry Jackson Jr. will be preoccupied fighting against same-sex marriage in DC while the same-sex marriage battle is gearing up in Maryland this year.

Bishop “butt pirate” Harry Jackson is scheduled to appear on Barry Lynn’s Culture Shocks Radio show tomorrow. I don’t know what the fake bishop is going to talk about but I hope the host challenges the fraud on his bigotry. Barry Lynn should hammer the bishop on who is paying the rent on the DC apartment he is claiming to reside.

I interrupt my vacation to post that Rick Warren of the bigoted Saddleback Church is begging for $900,000 Oral Roberts Style. I hope the hateful beast goes broke.
