To Conservative Radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh, who earlier this week criticized a University of Georgetown student Sandra Fluke, for her testimony before congress regarding the availability of birth control. But I think Rush may have may have slipped up. He stated in his apology " I posited that it is not our business whatsoever to know what is going on in anyone's bedroom" REALLY? SINCE WHEN?

Cheers

To Summit County Councilor Sandra Kurt. She is running to serve the remainder of the Summit County Council seat she was appointed to March 3, 2011. Sandra was an Akron City Councilwoman before being appointed to the County council seat. She was also the President of Summit County Stonewall Democrats. I endorsed her in the City Council race and proudly stand behind her now. So ALL MY AKRON READERS, PLEASE VOTE FOR SANDRA KURT!

To the Westboro Baptist Church,, who plan to picket at the funerals of the three Chardon High school students who were tragically killed on Monday. They have claimed to have protested at more than 47,00 funerals across the country. They protest at funerals to repeat their message of hate towards the LGBT community.
