Did you see 60 Minutes II last night? Powell “misled the United States.”

The Massachusetts high court ruled today that only full, equal marriage rights for gay couples — rather than civil unions — would be constitutional, erasing any doubts that the nation’s first same-sex marriages could take place in the state beginning in mid-May. (Check the photo essay also available on the above link.) Hours after the court ruling, the White House called the developments “deeply troubling” and said it will review the decision. White House spokesman Scott McClellan said President Bush is dedicated to “protecting the sanctity of marriage.”



Regarding WMD: “I’ve talked with analysts at CIA and DIA (Defense Intelligence Agency), and they all claim there was tremendous pressure put on them,” said Melvin Goodman (ex-CIA expert who currently teaches at the National War College). The fact, according to Goodman, that Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld created an Office of Special Plans (OSP) outside the formal intelligence channels with the specific mandate to reassess raw intelligence in order to find alleged links between Hussein and the al-Qaeda terrorist group suggests the administration was applying that pressure in unconventional ways.

“Many new advertisers are recognizing our value and participating this yearHillQuest,” says HillQuest publisher, Nancy Moors as she walks the streets of the ’hood. “The deadline for volume 2 of the annual Urban Guide to 92103+ is still three months away, but since advertisers get to choose the location of their HillQuest ad, folks aren’t waiting.” Why would they? This spiffy little book promotes our community (and its advertisers) for a full twelve months for one low price. A limited number of our first issue remains in storage and continue to be distributed daily. “You get so much with one ad in our guide, you’d have to be foolish not to be a part of HillQuest,” commented co-publisher Ann Garwood. In addition, each advertiser receives free web presence with Hillcrest businesses receiving a bonus of being identified on the full-color pullout maps at no extra charge. The publishers also take the handy books to neighborhood meetings and gatherings for additional outreach. Another bonus: Scripps Mercy Hosptial has retained the back cover, assuring that the guides will be available inside the facility for people who may not be familiar with our community.

Interested in setting up an appointment? Email Nancy or call her at(619) 260-1929.

XXXVIII halftime finale
CBS says they didn’t know about Janet’s boob being the halftime finale.
What do you think? Was it really a “wardrobe malfunction?”
They wouldn’t let the moveon.org ad “Child’s Pay” run.
Was it merely a separation of church (er, sports) and state?

Janet has apologized to those offended. Feds call it “deplorable.”
Aye yi yi...the duo may now be banned from Sunday’s Grammys on CBS.

I sure hope this incident won’t tarnish the Jackson family name.
