David Boies, co-counsel for the plaintiffs in Tuesday’s hearing before the Supreme Court, spoke exclusively to David Gregory on NBC’s Meet The Press today. And among many arguments, Boies once again likened our fight for marriage equality to that of civil rights, as well as handicapped what he believes is our likelihood of prevailing at the high court.

Yesterday we brought to your attention Michele Bachmann's continued battle with factual history, a debilitating condition made even more disheartening during her visit to Meet The Press where she completely forgot about the origins of her political career as a vehement anti-gay bigot; instead, according to Bachmann on Sunday's airing, she's now "not anyone's judge."

After discussing the insanity during our nightly pillow talk session with our husband Anderson Cooper (we might be as delusional as Bachmann!), the silver-haired stud devoted a 360 segment to reminding Bachmann of her very recent past as a hateful homophobe.

“Senator Lieberman’s announcement of the introduction of a Senate repeal bill is a welcome development following what has already been a historic several weeks in the campaign to end “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,’” said HRC President Joe Solmonese. ...
