Via Mediaite: Glenn Beck is not crazy. That’s why, last night, he acted out a whole scenario in which he’s a 90-year-old man in the year 2054 proving just how not-crazy he is. Beck got makeup and hair to make him look like a feeble old man, 40 years in the future, where (I’m guessing, it’s never directly said) progressives …

The decision …

“Tonight, the United States Supreme Court denied the State’s request for a stay in the case before the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals. Regardless of the ruling it has always been our goal to have uniformity throughout Florida until the final resolution of the numerous challenges to the voter-approved constitutional amendment on marriage. Nonetheless, the Supreme Court has now spoken, …

UPDATE: I just spoke with Key West plaintiff Aaron Huntsman: “I’m so thrilled to have been part of the process that hopefully has ended marriage inequality in Florida once and for all.” UPDATE II: The ACLU reacts via press release. This is a thrilling day for all Florida families. As we explained to the Court, every day that the ban …

William Jones (left) and Aaron Huntsman are the Key West bartenders whose marriage equality lawsuit against Monroe County was the first of five wins in Florida, earning them grand marshal titles in this year’s Fantasy Fest Parade, the first “political” selection in the event’s history.

The singer was confirmed as host for the Green Room segment of the show, interviewing the current acts.
