Note: Please excuse the open links – my right shoulder sustained a minor injury, and I’m not up to linking seventeen titles left-handed. Blog posting will be light until my shoulder heals. If you’re a GLBTQ Alaskan and have something to say about local or national news and events, I’m seeking guest posts and topic suggestions, and appreciate your help in keeping the blog active. Thanks. – Ed.

David Boies takes down FRC’s Tony Perkins
While Ted Olson was on Fox News explaining the Bill of Rights to Chris Wallace, David Boies spent Sunday morning on Face The Nation ripping Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council, the loons who are afraid that gays will ride on trains. Boies on FRC’s fake evidence: “That’s just MADE UP. That’s just JUNK SCIENCE.”
