Political outings threatened in Indiana after state super-DOMA advances
The Republicans aren't simply trying to pass a DOMA in Indiana, to ban gay marriage, they're trying to pass a super-DOMA that would ban civil unions as well.

And Bil Browning is having none of it. And he's right.

Last time the bigots in the Indiana Republican party tried this move, Bil and his friends found out that the sponsor of the amendment, who was super pro-life in addition to being super anti-gay, forced his wife to have an abortion the week before he divorced her. Hypocrisy much? Then there's the anti-gay politician who was schtuping his male hairdresser while his wife lay in bed with a long-term illness.

When Bil made his threat last time, to out anti-gay hypocrites who weren't living up to the family values they wanted to legislate down our throats, it helped kill the amendment. This time he's asking for your help again. Pass this around to your friends, because Bil is right. This isn't your daddy's Oldsmobile. We're in a new millenium now, and especially post Prop 8 gay people aren't going to sit back and shut up any longer. I know the older folks want Bil to calm down. If he'll just keep quiet, maybe the mean Republicans will find it in their hearts to be nice to us.

3. I am so very for outing hypocrites that I pissed off a couple of DUers once.
I feel a little bad, and she and her partner had a right to be upset with me, but if we want to beat these bastards, we can't let them get away with such self-serving and harmful opportunism.

Out every last one of them. Make them suffer for the suffering they would or have caused. Make them live under their own hatred until it bores holes in their tepid souls. Perhaps then we can pave the road to equality.

4. Anyone who makes money or profits in any way off their hate of Teh Gay deserves to be
outed. If you live quietly in your closet and don't make your name hating others, then you have the right to privacy.
