SOUNDBITES — “This is a march — a demonstration — not Lollapalooza. It’s not a national political convention. We are trying to unite around a single, all uniting, all encompassing goal of equality. […] It’s a one-sentence demand. We want equal protection under the law for LGBT Americans in all matters governed by civil law in all 50 states.” —National Equality March organizer Cleve Jones on what October’s event will, and will not be [Washington Blade]

But what does he really want it to be. I read a rumor about a blog post about an offhand remark that they secretly want to stage it in Deep Throats parking garage away from the media because Cleve Jones secret hates gay people. So it must be true.

@Alex:
I heard that since both Cleve and Obama secretly hate gay people, they are planning this march to take place at the HRC. And since the HRC secretly hates gay people, Joe Solmonese is already in on it! That’s why no one is bothering to get permits!
