It's not that she is pro- or anti- gay rights; it's that she won't give a simple yes or no answer to a tough question. I hate that. Shit or get off the pot, lady… especially if you're courting votes and financial backing from gays and their friends/family.

Lines were drawn quickly between those who chose not to question the church and those who continually demanded answers. Parish employees were fired and accusations flew. One woman became an Episcopalian, and another has vowed to lie down on the church’s s

BBC NEWS | Europe | Celibacy 'obligatory' for priests
Pope Benedict XVI has confirmed that celibacy "remains obligatory" for Roman Catholic priests.
He also restated the ban on Communion for divorced Catholics who remarry, and on abortion, euthanasia and gay unions which he said were "not negotiable".
Welcome, former Catholics, yearning to breathe (and live and worship) freely. The Episcopal Church welcomes you. If you live in the Chicago suburbs, anywhere within reach of Elk Grove Village, we at St Nicholas with the Holy Innocents will welcome you with open arms and hearts and minds.
Pace Likens Gays to Adulterers
Group wants Gen. Pace apology for calling gays immoral – CNN.com
Well, it wouldn't be adultery if gays could legally marry, now would it? This guy needs to have his attitude adjusted. Perhaps someday a family member will come out and wise him up. Gays is people, dammit.

Harare Unrest
Cricinfo – Riot police prevent play in Zimbabwe
Harare, the seat of the Bad Bishop, seems to be in turmoil. Church services were cancelled, a cricket match didn't happen, an opposition leader was badly beaten. Hope His Grace enjoyed a quiet day at home.
The Rush Limbaugh Courthouse?? Could Be.
Among the many useful pieces of information at the new OpenCongress.org website: a bill to rename a federal building in Cape Girardeau MO the "Rush Hudson Limbaugh Sr. Courthouse." It's apparently named after a male relative who was a judge or something in Missouri, but still: ew.
6 Hits in 24 Hours: Bush Administration’s Perfect Storm
Rutland Herald: Rutland Vermont News & Information
- Six of the eight recently fired United States Attorneys told Congressional committees that they believed they lost their jobs because they wouldn't play partisan politics in their handling of high profile political corruption cases. Some also claimed they'd been threatened by the Justice Department not to go public with their complaints.
- Nine American servicemen were killed in action Iraq.
- More than 100 Iraqi Shiites making a religious pilgrimage were killed by suicide bombers. At least 200 were injured.
- Seriously wounded soldiers told Congress about the neglect, bad housing and bureaucratic nightmares they suffered as outpatients at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington while two top army generals accepted responsibility and apologized to the soldiers and their families.
- According to a new USA Today/Gallup Poll, six in 10 Americans want Congress to set a time table to withdraw all American troops from Iraq by the end of 2008.
- And, Lewis "Scooter" Libby, former chief of staff to Vice President Dick Cheney and a national security aide to President George W. Bush, was found guilty of perjury and obstruction of justice in the case of the leak of the identity of a CIA operative in the summer of 2003. Any one of these stories would have been bad news for the Bush White House.
As a group they represent a devastating political "perfect storm" because they paint a vivid picture of corruption, neglect and incompetence even while things continue to go badly in a war that a significant majority of Americans no longer supports and wants to end. It was enough to make the White House spokesman want to hide from the press, which Tony Snow tried to do by taking the day off. But neither he nor his boss can hide from the reality that Bush administration policies have created at home and abroad – a reality that seems about as bad as it can be but promises to get worse.
And naturally, this perfect storm will pass over unnoticed by many – except for us reality-based life-forms, that is.

Another Milestone
Week before last, I received some papers that needed my notarized signature. Sent them back express, and awaited developments.
Yesterday, the sale on Mom’s house closed.
Since my middle sister, Tudy, was going to be out of town and we’re getting ready for a trip in the near future, we younger sisters had decided to get all the paperwork pre-signed and waiting for Timmy’s fist to seal the deal.
So that’s the last milestone passed.
