Queerty just fell off my blogroll...

By Ameriqueer
As of today I realized that the Merriam Webster dictionary just got a new definition of counterproductive, and that definition linked me smack in the middle of one of my former favorite websites, Queerty... While the men may be hot, the politics smell funny. Queerty enjoys being instigators of controversy, rather than part of the solution. I may say some off the wall things in Ameriqueer, but you can shoot me between the eyes with a concealed weapon in church (its legal in Illinois) if I EVER do something to intentionally set back the LGBT community just for readership. I really mean that. I, of course like ALL BLOGS, want more readers to read this, but I also want to have equal rights, which seems to be more than the Queerty editors want--by posting as much counterproductive and anti-movement stuff they can get their hands on.

If you're a regular Queerty reader, you've probably fallen into the wrong URL, I'm sorry to say. The boys are pretty, but the brains are not. If you belong there, I suggest you unsubscribe from my site quickly and pretend this never happened. Because I'd rather be talking to an empty room then EVER be in cahoots with an entity that is working against our equality.

Queerty are the queen conspiracy theorists in our community. If you enjoy Ameriqueer, you enjoy many diverse viewpoints--but I'm proud to announce I will NO LONGER be linking to Queery EVER EVER EVER (as Bernice and Mitzy would say and Queerty would likely ban me from saying) again.

By the way, Queerty, You can feel free to bash this site and its readers now. I DON'T HATE quite like you do, so therefore, probably don't fall into line with your view of the (white suburban) gay community. So sorry to interrupt. You can get back to your counterproductive hatred now! So sorry there's just about noone left to listen to you hate!

I'm not a regular queerty reader, but I have followed a few links over there in the past. I was a bit mystified by this post, and even went over to queerty and I didn't really see anything terribly offensive.

I hope you can enlighten me as to what they posted which could be described as "counterproductive and anti-movement."

I'd be very interested to know . . .

Howard Dean Supports Marriage Equality in Vermont

By Ameriqueer
The Burlington Free Press revealed that at a Saturday state Democratic Party reception at the Burlington Hilton, Vermont's former Governor Howard Dean encouraged the leaders in his state to pass legislation legalizing Same-Sex Marriage. Dean was the governor back in 2000 when Vermont became the first state in the Union to enact Civil Unions legislation under pressure from the courts. Now they may just be the first state to enact Marriage Equality WITHOUT pressure from the courts. The Current Governor, Jim Douglas has vowed to veto the legislation when it hits his desk, however, he's also indicated that even he doubts the legislators would not have moved the legislation forward if they did not have a Veto-Proof majority. Let's hope this bolsters the cause of equality even more.

HEY #p2!--CALLING ALL PROGRESSIVE ALLIES!

By Ameriqueer
-HEY #p2! (Progressives). We can't do this alone. Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Americans have been fighting for over half a Century to have basic Civil Rights. We have so much to do, and we are such a small group. Without an army of Progressive allies, we can't win. Our rights as American citizens are constantly being compromised, despite life-time service to our nation as good, contributing citizens. We can't wait any longer. We need our Progressive allies to step up and go to bat for us TODAY. We must demand Progressives have got to make LGBT rights a top priority in 2010, or we will keep being put on the back-burner. There will ALWAYS be something more important than LGBT equality affecting America--issues like Health Care Reform and the Economy effect LGBT people too! However, when we are discriminated against under the law every single day, we can't give our all to fixing these problems. We are long overdue to be counted as equal citize...
