		<description><![CDATA[It surely isn&#039;t getting better in Nashville: We need BIGGER and BIGGER celebrities supporting equality, more openly ... How about it President Obama?

Here from JMG: Comedian and 30 Rock star Tracy Morgan is in hot water with LGBT activists after performing an anti-gay monologue during a Nashville concert.
Kevin Rogers, who was in attendance, posted a public note on Facebook detailing at length the hateful language used by Morgan. What did the comic say? After laying out the usual lines about homosexuality being a choice, he said &quot;god don&#039;t make no mistakes&quot; and said that &quot;all this gay stuff is bullsh*t.&quot; What does he think about lesbians? &quot;There is no way a woman could love and have sexual desire for another woman, that&#039;s just a woman pretending because she hates a [expletive] man.&quot; And then he got even more honest: &quot;If my son were gay he better come home and talk to me like a man and not [like a homosexual--Morgan mimicked a feminine voice] or I&#039;d pull out a knife and stab that little N***** to death.&quot; The worst thing about the 30 Rock star&#039;s rant? It was greeted with cheers and applause from many in the audience.&quot;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I go way back in the gay community and I still don’t “get it” as to why it’s important to come out. It’s no one’s business what my or your sexuality is. No one tells anyone they’re straight; why should we tell other people we’re gay? I’m myself, and I don’t need to make statements. Period.]]></description>
