our time is now...

ok, i promise this isn't going to become a "big gay blog". pam spaulding and joe.my.god and so many others do it so much better than i ever could.

that said, the issue of glbt equality is very personal for me and i would be remiss if i didn't jump into the fray while "we" are in the limelight. who knew that glbt-related issues would be vying for equal coverage (at least in the progressive blogodrome) with O's first SCOTUS nominee.

i realized just how much coverage glbt issues were getting today, when i made my daily foray into the land of huffington (not to mention my subsequent foray to the "big orange monster", aka Daily Kos). following are linky's to the articles "all things gay" from the front page and the politics page...keep in mind, this is JUST TODAY, just huffpost:
