LaBarbara displayed this pic of Chelsea Clinton at the tres gay Red Dress party from Willamette Week, apparently to shock his readers. After all, his readers might not realize that they could do that with plastic. The single-issue anti-gay activist Peter LaBarbara is notorious for over-the-top reactions to anything gay. Those who have the good fortune of not recognizing the name might (if you dare) check out the great coverage of his rants from the wonderful Good As You (G.A.Y.) blog . Suffice it to say, however, that LaBarbara seems to have a hair-trigger rant-switch, which makes him an effective...

King shooting Kern's anti-gay rant Proof that we don't have to go as far as Oklahoma, home to YouTube phenom bigot Sally Kern , to find a ferociously anti-gay state legislator comes in the form of what Portland's gay paper, Just Out , rightly calls an "explosive interview" with the state senator sponsoring an anti-gay initiative. Senator Gary George and State Representative Kim Thatcher have filed an initiative to reverse the recently enacted Oregon Equality Act -- an anti-discrimination law for sexual minorities -- and allow discrimination against gay people. The measure...

He was in office at the onset of the Civil War and is celebrated mainly for holding down the bottom of the Worst Presidents lists. Historians often describe him as “our only bachelor president...

Crosscut , David Brewster's new online newspaper for the Northwest run largely by Seattle Weekly alumni, has -- and this is remarkable -- used the word "gay" in a headline today, " Young gay-rights opponents get vocal in Oregon ". That's news in itself, but more interesting is the story under the headline. Those young gay-rights opponents were mostly from Russian-language (Russophone) churches in Oregon. They provide a link that helps explain the reasons for the recent visits to Riga, Latvia by Redmond's Ken Hutcherson and Oregon haulocaust revisionist Scott Lively...
