Fred Niles, the longest-serving member of the New South Wales parliament and one of Australia’s leading anti-gay activists, is front-page news in Sydney today after an audit revealed that he’d used his government computer to view pornography. A really LOT of pornography, it appears. An audit of NSW parliamentary computers, which has already resulted in the resignation of a …

Maybe the $4M loft he bought in gay gay gay Chelsea this summer did (or more likely, brought) the trick, as Mike Rogers reports today that repulsive 2004 Dubya campaign manager and former RNC chairman Ken Mehlman is about to come out. [UPDATE: It’s official. See update at the bottom of this post.] In 2004 Steve Schmidt (then the Republican …

“Permits should not be granted to build even one more mosque in the United States of America, let alone the monstrosity planned for Ground Zero. This is for one simple reason: each Islamic mosque is dedicated to the overthrow of the American government. Each one is a potential jihadist recruitment and training center, and determined to implement the ‘Grand Jihad’ …

Days after Sharron Angle declared that she would not accept donations from companies that support LGBT rights, the Daily Beast’s Steve Friess wonders what Angle will do about the filthy gay-friendly money she’s already received.

“Judge Walker’s ruling overturning Prop 8 is an outrageous disrespect for our Constitution and for the majority of people of the United States who believe marriage is the union of husband and wife.

“I do believe that as a moral country, as a country that was founded in these values, we have always paid tribute to these values of traditional marriage and that the thrust of this bill, which a number of these amendments have tried to address, have highlighted what is clearly a deep cultural divide in this country. And that when …

According to a legal ethics expert cited by the New York Times, Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum has an “affirmative responsibility” to notify the state appellate court that his “expert witness,” Dr. George Rekers, gave false testimony. News coverage has focused largely on his seeming hypocrisy, given that Dr. Rekers, a clinical psychologist and ordained Baptist minister, has written that …

When the story broke yesterday that NARTH member and Family Research Council co-founder Dr. George Rekers had patronized a male prostitute, some of you noted his role is Florida’s campaign to maintain its ban on gay adoption.

I was going to withhold the identity of the male prostitute hired by Dr. George Rekers, the virulently anti-gay NARTH board member and Family Research Council co-founder. However, the folks over at Unzipped (NSFW) also figured out who “Lucien” was and have gone ahead and posted his Rentboy profile. So, since the ho is already out of the barn, here’s …

The Scottish school board administrator who was a leader in the campaign against repealing the UK’s anti-gay Section 28 law has confessed to possessing and distributing child pornography.

Alabama “militiaman” and popular teabagger blogger Mike Vanderboegh calls for his followers to smash Democratic offices. Some are blaming him for the incidents that have already occurred. “To all modern Sons of Liberty: THIS is your time. Break their windows. Break them NOW.

One more rung in Mee-Maw Palin’s Hypocrisy Ladder: The dangers of “death panels” were explained to Americans on Sarah Palin’s Facebook page.
