Keith Olbermann is one bad ass straight dude!

Between Keith Olbermann and my next wife, Rachel Maddow, I'm literally obsessed with MSNBC. I have my DVR set to record them every night and even then I still download Rachel's podcast every night.

One of the best part of Keith's shows is his "special comment" section and last night he took on Prop 8. It brought tears to my eyes to hear the passionin his voice and at times it looked like even he would breakdown as he discusses the issue that's become so important to me and my community - and apparently the rest of free thinking America.

Thanks Keith...thank you, thank you, thank you!

Prop 8 Protest - this is not over.

Last night the protests against the passing of Proposition 8 continued all over Southern California. I attended the one that took place at the Mormon Tabernacle - this church was targeted specifically because of the 15 million dollars that they donated to the "Yes on 8" campaign, not because of their religion or their belief system.

At one point a group of representatives from the church arrived to clean up the front of the church, but as a group of 10 "No on 8" protesters walked by they began shouting names and behaving aggressively. When the "No on 8" protesters tried to talk to them a group of 3 young Mormon women attacked on of our "No" representatives and punched her in the face. At this point all hell broke loose and there was pushing, yelling and a few more punches thrown.

That's when the riot police were called:

Ambulances took the injured away and the crowd of "No" protesters began to request a redress of the greivances from the police. - our heroes the LAPD. New York has public servants that run into collapsing buildings and we have public servants that shoot 8 year olds and allow hate crimes to take place in front of them and take no action. Our people were taken away in ambulances....and theirs drove away in SUV's.

Viva bullshit.
