Politics Buzz A Google Maps mashup that shows the name and addresses of people who donated to Proposition 8. Once again, the equation of Google plus something that's been around forever (in this case, pubic donor info) equals a great big handwringing session!

Outspoken gay activist Melissa Etheridge seems surprisingly okay with Proposition 8 supporter Rick Warren delivering the invocation at Obama's inauguration. Melissa, come any closer to our window and we'll shut it on your purpose driven fingers. Not cool.
Politics Buzz President-elect Obama has chosen Proposition 8 supporter and minister of the evangelical Saddleback Church to give the invocation at his inauguration. You may remember him for his pseudo-debate on “faith issues” with Obama and McCain.
Politics Buzz Newt Gingrich's sister, who happens to be a gay activist, writes a letter after watching Newt bash Prop 8 protestors on the Bill O'Reilly Show. Hopefully, the whole family will make up at Thanksgiving dinner and set their squabbles aside. One love!
Politics Buzz A new grassroots movement is urging people to “call in gay” from work on December 10 (International Human Rights Day) and spend the day volunteering. Straight allies are encouraged to participate too, so the opportunity to find out how your boss will react to an “I'm too gay to come to work today” phone call is available to everyone.
Culture Buzz When it comes to making witty signs for Proposition 8 protest rallies, the gays are by no means suffering in the zinger department. We know her “religion” allegedly contains no ties to the Mormon church (on whom the blame has been placed for P8's passing), but isn't the unibrowed polygamist lady just asking to be parodied? Get on it, gays!

A real conservative's opinion on marriage, forget about it!
Politics Buzz While Americans welcomed their first black president with open arms, it seems they’re still not down with the gays getting, y’know, equal rights and stuff. You’d have thought that the country’s favorite talk show host could have at least warmed California over, for goodness’ sake.
Sascha Baron Cohen’s alter ego Bruno, a gay Austrian reporter, went undercover at a Proposition 8 rally in California this past weekend. This is all in preparation for his next film, Bruno: Delicious Journeys Through America for the Purpose of Making Heterosexual Male.

Now to see if Proposition 8 will pass… And yeah I realize the thumbnail says New York marriage.
