Here's Another Reason To Love Olbermann

This Olbermann "Special Comment" made by Keith Olbermann on Nov. 10 is another reason I love Keith Olbermann. Here is the link to it: Olbermann Special Comment on Prop. 8. Just read it or go to the video link and listen to it. Even if you are not gay you will really feel his emotion, a straight man just questioning why the religious right feels a need to squelch gay marriage. It made me tear up. Much love and peace to you all and much love to Olbermann and Maddow, two of my personal heroes.

The Election, The Election Fiasco, A Few of My Favorite Things and More!

Hey folks, well its been a while since I last posted. Gay history month is now over as well as the election. Obviously anyone who knows me well or even a little knows that I helped work on the Obama campaign so obviously things were truly in my favor on Election Day 2008. However my county's Election Board and their job getting things done, like getting voters to the machines to vote on Election Day in a reasonable amount of time, was sorely lacking. I personally waited nearly 5 hours to vote and some people were unable to vote at all because they were unable to wait for the extended amount of time. These Election Day fiascoes in my county led to my activism in this area. Here is a link to the article I was interviewed for after writing letters and speaking to officials regarding Spartanburg County's Election Day issues: Officials to Look At Voting Issues. Anyways enough on that for now.
On now to a couple of my favorite Political Pundits. I have always enjoyed watching Keith Olbermann and most recently have started watching Rachel Maddow. These two are smart, funny, witty and very in tune with my personal politics. Here are a few links to their sites and sites about them. Be warned though, that if you are conservative and/or Republican you probably won't enjoy them or understand them but then that's a shame for you.

Obama and More

Hey Folks, the election is not too far off so I am going to focus more on Obama and the issues and why I think you should vote for him and will focus less on glbt entertainment and such for now. I say that now but I probably will just increase my number of posts since gay media is such an interest to me. Anyways I found a few new pages/blogs/applications on the net tonight that focus on the election and the issues that you all might find interesting. The first thing is a MySpace profile/application called MyDebates.org. The following is how I fared on my views/alignment with the candidates. I was 100% aligned with Obama, which made me happy that I do not think like McCain/Palin and the Republicans in any shape, way or form.



Also for some good, interesting opinions on the candidates you should visit some of my favorite Liberal/Moderate Left-Leaning/Democrat Blogs. Here's the list:

October is GLBT History Month

Hey folks! What is so important about October? Well I suppose you could say Halloween, but that is not what I'm referring to right now. What I am referring to is GLBT History Month. There is a great website called GLBT History Month and it can be found at glbt History Month. Below is a 2008 GLBT icon video and there are 31 of them. Each day the video on my blog will change to reflect that day's video so you can come here to see each day's new video and you can check out the History Month site for previous year's icons and more info on this year's icons. I'm out for now and Pz and Love to you all. Keep Reading and I hope to hear from you all soon!



Ps folks: Please support the generous business whom make this most important glbt resource possible through their donations. They include:

Out tv
Comcast Corporation
B.W. Bastian Foundation
Curve Magazine
Greco Philia Mykonos Villas
NBC 10
EDGE Publications Inc.

A Little Explanation

Hey folks in case you were wondering why I have two very similar posts, it's because I didn't realize one was posted to drafts after I thought it was lost and I didn't have time to recreate it at that time. Anyways it had some more links than the second post so I decided it too was worth posting. Thanks and keep reading. Hope to hear from you all soon!
