wanted to be billed as gay,' but a producer said—and this is Mel
paraphrasing a conversation he had with an unnamed producer—‘No, we’re
establishing you as what we want you to be established. He’s
established as deaf. You’re established as gay, so don’t be
interrupting what we're trying to do here.’”

 roadDefense Secretary Gates remains cautious on "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" repeal: “Everybody in this room knows that this is a complex and difficult problem. [Then he noted that President Harry S. Truman had signed an executive
order integrating the armed services in 1948] and that it was five
years before the process was completed. I’m not saying that’s a model for this, but I’m saying that I believe that this is something that needs to be done very, very carefully.’’

Eli  roadEli Manning: I'm better looking than Peyton.

 roadSarah Palin's anti-gay attorney general nominee REJECTED.

the Long Island Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Services Network. Milk
grew up on Long Island and graduated from high school there in the late
1940s — keeping his sexuality a well-guarded secret."

 roadUVA students hold a rally against anti-gay hate: "Several hundred people gathered at UVA’s amphitheater last night for
the Stand Against Hatred. The vigil and public forum was in response to
the April 4 attack on a UVA student that was apparently motivated by
anti-gay bias."

 roadMaryland to protect the homeless under hate crimes statute: "The groundbreaking measure, championed by one of the legislature's most
conservative Republicans, was approved in the House of Delegates four
minutes before the General Assembly adjourned at midnight Monday.
O'Malley (D) is reviewing the bill, which also adds penalties for
violent crimes against people targeted because of their gender or
disability."
