The world's largest anti-gay bukake (otherwise known as the Values Voter Summit) has kicked off in Philadelphia and made itself a prime target for the more vocal of progressive protesters. Vice Presidential nominee Rep. Paul Ryan became the first target when a pair of women claiming to be part of ACT-UP Philadelphia interrupted his b.s. drivel. 

Proving he was not much more than a sack of sand blocking the road to Massachusetts marriage equality in 2004, then-Governor Mitt Romney reluctantly met with a group of gay parents in a PR-orchestrated act of diplomacy. As the he continues to slip in the polls in the 2012 presidential election, more details from this eight-year old meeting is coming to light. 

As the 2012 Values Voter Summit approaches this weekend, a coalition of human rights groups including GLAAD, HRC and the National Black Justice Coalition have reached out to scheduled speakers and urged them not to appear at the annual hate fest hosted by the Family Research Council. 

Controversial billionaire industrialist, David Koch is steadfastly committed to getting Mitt Romney elected and has used millions of his own dollars to do it, but it turns out the fiscal conservative breaks from Romney and the Republican party when it comes to same-sex marriage.

Details after the jump.

Ann Romney broke away from many in her party and told Entertainment Tonight cameras that Modern Family probably isn't the work of the devil and has secured the No. 1 spot in her "favorite TV shows" section on Facebook.

Modern Family Executive Producer Steven Levitan was charmed by the endorsement, of course, and offered his biggest fan the opportunity of a lifetime.

With one caveat. 

Disgraced designer John Galliano is still feeling the heat following his anti-Semitic remarks that cost him his job as the artistic director of Dior in 2011.

According to the BBC, Galliano has been stripped of the Legion d'Honneur. The French government awarded him the medal in 2009 for his contributions to haute couture.

When a Virginia-based reporter played a word association game with Paul Ryan and Chick-Fil-A came up, the GOP vice presidential candidate revealed how he feels about the chicken chain's anti-gay PR problem.

The Log Cabin Republican's are applauding the passage of language that the pro-gay conservative group says is a nod of support for the LGBT community.

According to Buzzfeed, A subcommittee of the Republican National Committee's platform-drafting committee passed language this morning that states: "We embrace the principle that all Americans have the right to be treated with dignity and respect."

Golf claps. More after the jump.

A new poll from the Washington Post finally puts the hard numbers behind what the LGBT community has suspected for quite some time: America's tea baggers really, really want to limit the scope of federal government...except when it comes to letting the federal government into our bedrooms. In that case, tea baggers are completely supportive of big government keeping big homos away from civil marriage equality.

Try to wrap your minds around those logistical hoops with more deets on WaPo's new poll after the jump!

Days of Our Lives caught quite a bit of heat from our readers yesterday when it was revealed that the show's leading gay character, Will, would suddenly be doing the horizonal tango with a female.

Perhaps that why the show is also promoting its upcoming gay bullying storyline centered around the character, Sonny.

Nothing says "I'm coming out of the closet into manhood" like a 13-year old boy recreating every single hand shimmy of choreography to Madonna's "Vogue." That's exactly what the now-adult Shaun Sperling did back in 1992, and we can't think of a better way to say, "Happy birthday, Madonna. Thanks for helping family and friends realize an entire generation of adolescent boys like us were gay!" 

We weren't the only ones with our butt-enhancing tighty-whities in a bunch after the Log Cabin Republicans resoundingly applauded Romney's selection of Rep. Paul Ryan while turning a blind queer eye to the VP contestant's horrible anti-gay history. The Courage Campaign was paying attention, too, and has started a petition asking that the LCR withdraw its support for one of the most anti-gay tickets in decades. Details and a new plea from LCR to Mitt Romney, after the jump!
