Hundreds of Sacramento-area students rallied to support four students suspended for wearing anti-gay shirts. One participant said: "It's only going to get worse against Christians. We're going to get persecuted more and more. But those who stand to the end: God is going to save them." Um, right...

Sony's banking on Spider Man 3. Literally. Some insiders claim the flick cost $300 million to produce. No doubt, however, it'll make it back. And then some.

The International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission will honor Nepal's Blue Diamond Society for all their hard activist work. Unfortunately, they will not be honored with actual blue diamonds.

We've never quite understood Kate Moss and Pete Doherty's relationship. Now we do. And they're kind of cute. Still total nutters, but cute...

The fuzz may have been investigating theft at Atlanta's airport, but they found a bunch of horny gay men, instead. Now they're looking for more.

Maryland's House has passed a bill requiring health insurance companies to extend benefits to same-sex partners and children. The bill now needs to be signed by the governor to become a law. (We totally just had a School House Rock flashback.)

GLAAD's celebrating the tenth anniversary of Ellen Degeneres' coming out with a month full of flag-waving faggotry.

Sri Lanka may forbid homosexuality, but that's not stopping gay activists from planning a pride event. Trouble is, they don't have any money. Do you?

In an effort to make a more single friendly album, Madonna has joined forces with Justin Timberlake and uber-producer Timbaland. If they can't help her sales, no one can...

The House Judiciary Committee isn't fucking around with Attorney General Alberto Gonzales. They've just issued a subpoena for more documents regarding the allegedly illegal firing of federal prosecutors. Nail him to the wall, kids!

New York has agreed to extend benefits to employee's same-sex partners. About fucking time, no?

Robbie Williams may have ditched Take That! to embrace his bad boy image, but some are saying the recently rehabbed singer's mulling a musical reunion. Um, is that supposed to be a career booster or a death rattle?

21-year old Akino George has been sentenced to eight years in prison for his role in the beating of gay singer, Kevin Aviance. Like his violent cohorts, George copped a plea. Smart fucker...

20051207_jamesWest.jpg

The people of Spokane have spoken. They’ve booted Mayor James West, who cruised for twinks on Gay.com chat rooms and offered at least one a cool city job, out of office.

West tried somewhat valiantly to save his hide by constantly apologizing to his fellow Spokanites, even going so far as to claim last week that he’s now abstaining from gay sex.

But we’re going to miss hearing about Republican (and hypocrite) West’s flirtatious emails.

Here, thinking he’s talking to a hot high school jock, West attempts to convince him to stay mum about his true identity saying, “someday I may run for Governor and this would be bad if you know what I mean.”

Well, we now know exactly what you mean.

It means Cobra 82nd‘s celibacy is getting shattered this weekend now that there’s plenty of time to troll the Gay.com chat rooms.

• Two more men were hanged in Iran for their homosexuality. Is any reader aware of an organization working to stop these hangings? Shoot us an email.

• The N.C.A.A. has approved a two-piece wrestling uniform to replace the sexualized unitard the gays love. The new uniform shows off the competitor’s packages just as much as the last. So we are good with it. Via Jossip and AKAFrankGreen.

• Are women ready for the Stud Farm? Who cares, but we sure as hell are.

• "A coming-out tool kit" will debut at a gay conference in Seattle this weekend. We strongly urge the Gay and Lesbian Leadership Institute to send one to Tom Cruise, Anderson Cooper, and Kenny Chesney immediately.

• Spokane Mayor James E. West's computer only had 100 pictures of nude males on the hard drive. Which you queens know, is not many at all.

Spokane’s conservative Republican Mayor James West, or “Cobra 82nd” as we like to call him, has been in trouble for surfing Gay.com on a city-owned laptop and then offering an internship to some boy toy in a chat room. Not a smart move for the mayor. (Any queer Spokanites who’ve chatted with him, drop us a line). Rumors have also been rampant about possible sex abuse while a Boy Scout leader. Oh boy.

From his recent AP interview:


Tears welled in the mayor's eyes and he paused to collect himself at one point while reading a supportive letter he received from a former Boy Scout now living in the Netherlands.

He’s publicly declaring he’s still corresponding with Boy Scouts? Someone please slap him.

"I wish I had never gone online at all. I just wish I hadn't," West said. "I scratch my head today. I can't tell you why."

We can answer that one for you. Because you like cock.

"I was never a closeted conservative or a closeted liberal."

No Mr. West, just a closeted homosexual.

The AP saved us from a weekend of nightmares by choosing not to ask him about the significance of a snake in his screen name, Cobra 82nd. We really don’t want to know.
