Poll: Stephen Colbert Is A Bigger 2012 Threat to Obama Than Romney
Colbert’s good polling highlights the fact that Mitt Romney is very weak challenger to President Obama. Colbert’s high polling suggests something else as well. The American people are fed up with what they view as Washington and the status quo. Many who are not happy with Obama feel that way because they had an expectation
Will Brian Sims help or hinder LGBT progress in Pennsylvania?
The thing that is keeping any LGBT legislation from moving out of committee is Darryl Metcalf. He now heads an important committee, and he will continue to do so until he loses his re-election, or Democrats take control of the House again. Electing Brian Sims won't impact either of these in any way. This is nothing against Brian who is a smart, articulate, and handsome guy. Just the reality of the real issues that are stopping LGBT legislation.

Those who oppose marriage equality are few, but wealthy.
This is not reason to celebrate, but rather it is reason to not give up the passion with which we fight for marriage equality. We still have a long way to go, but our battle is really against a small group of very loud, very rich supporters who have no problem sinning (bearing false witness is a sin) when it works to their advantage to do what they claim is "the Lord's work."
