- Bio
- Scott K is a gay man living in sin with his partner of over twelve years whom he still cannot legally marry.
Scott says he's politically active not because he wants to be, but rather feels he has to be. He takes very seriously Thomas Jefferson's famous quote "The price of freedom is eternal vigilance" which, strangely enough, he thinks he first heard on an episode of The Simpsons.
Scott has one cat, two dogs, and a lot of opinions.

Bush: Iraq Must Be Invaded to Thwart Gog and Magog
From the Council for Secular Humanism:
A French Revelation, or The Burning Bush
JAMES A. HAUGHT
Incredibly, President George W. Bush told French President Jacques Chirac in early 2003 that Iraq must be invaded to thwart Gog and Magog, the Bible’s satanic agents of the Apocalypse.
Honest. This

Why They Won't Abandon the Birther Conspiracy Theory
This excerpt below tends to explain why so many right-wingers still cling to the "birther" conspiracy theory despite it being debunked time after time:
The problem not only with fundamentalist Christians but with Republicans in general is not that they act on blind faith, without thinking. The… Read full post »

Here's Why
I know, I know.
We're all getting sick of the 24/7 every channel plus the Internet coverage of Michael Jackson's death. I'm right there with you. I've heard some of you question why they are making such a big deal of it, but although I'm tired of hearing about… Read full post »
The Wisdom (ahem) of Celine Dion
"It feels like when Kennedy died."
-Celine Dion, who was born in 1968, speaking to CNN’s Larry King about Michael Jackson's death
Maybe she meant JFK, Jr since John F. Kennedy died in 1961 long before her birth (although I really, really doubt it). Read full post »
Goodbye Farrah

Farrah Fawcett (1947-2009)
When I was growing up, I shared a room with my brother. He’s about 4 1/2 years older than me, and sometime during his early teens he put this poster up in our room. I think he did so mainly to cover up any hint that

Has Obama *Really* Turned His Back on the Gay Community?
As a gay man I'm getting really sick of how quickly the gay community has turned on Obama. Many claim he's turned on us, but I disagree. Yes, some of his decisions have disappointed me, but there has also been some good reasons for some of them.

Michelle Bachman Suggests Democrats Caused Swine Flu
“I find it interesting that it was back in the 1970’s that the swine flu broke out then under another Democrat, President Jimmy Carter. And I’m not blaming this on President Obama, I just think it is an interesting coincidence.”

Another great response to NOM's "Gathering Storm" ad:
Regarding the Perez Hilton - Miss California Controversy
I'm a gay man, but Perez Hilton is an idiot. He doesn't speak for me nor does he speak for the gay community at large. He's just someone who happens to be gay and became famous by gossiping and making nasty comments about celebrities. As far as I'm concerned, he can… Read full post »
There is a storm being caused by gay marriage and we are all in serious trouble:
Courtesy of Funny or Die.
Gay Marriage = Religious Freedom
Apparently tonight is video night on my blog. ;-)
The following video was made by Rob Tisinai. You can see more of his videos here.
Spotted this on the web somewhere:
/Last night I wrote
a post about Amazon.com's alleged snub of the LGBT community
(of which I am a member). I suggested that calls of boycott
against Amazon were premature as Amazon had up until now been a
very gay-friendly company and perhaps this really was a glitch.
Well, tonight news is… Read full post »
[UPDATED YET AGAIN - see below] Ok, the Twitterverse and LGBT blogosphere are in an absolute snit over a recent change at Amazon.com classifying most LGBT fiction as "adult content" thereby excluding the material from sales rankings, etc.

Social Commentary or Socially Irresponsible: You Decide
So the popular online store T-Shirt Hell is shutting down, and it's not because of the bad economy. Rather it's because the owner "Sunshine Megatron" (formerly Aaron Landau Schwarz) could no longer handle the flak he was receiving over some of his t-shirt slogans such as:
- "It's not gay
A lot of fuss is being made over two little words that President Obama said recently:
"I won."
President Obama used the above two words in reference to the November election as reason why his ideas regarding a stimulus package tax credit would prevail over the Republicans' opposing views.

Why Prop 8's Passage Could Be A Good Thing
Yes, Prop. 8 passed in California as we're all aware, and the sky is falling. Gay marriages have been outlawed in the state in a blatant display of homophobia infecting politics.
