Joe. My. God. gives us  a little good news and some very bad news today.

Elliot Spitzer announced in a West Village fundraiser that he supports gay marriage - and that once there’s a Democratic state Senate, New York would have marriage (not civil unions, note - marriage.)

The bad news?

The part of Pennsylvnia’s hate crime law protecting sexual orientation and physical disability was overturned by a state court yesterday, 5-1.

So, while we were all fighting over ENDA for a scarecrow battle (we haven’t won til Bush signs it. Ha.) we actually lost real rights.  You can thank the Christian Right activist group Repent America for that.
