Minnesota Republican Senator Dinner Date With Gay Porn Star, Minnesota Added As Defendant In Gay Marriage Suit, New York City Homeless Gay Youth Crisis, Elton John Appeared At Rush Limbaugh Wedding To Build Bridges, Anti-Gay Preacher Ken Hutcherson Presided Over Limbaugh Nuptials, Daniel Radcliffe Holds Big Balls, Mike Wozniak, Cristiano Ronaldo Spread, Ryan Phillippe, Stephen Dorff Starring Somewhere Trailer

State Senator Paul Koering is Minnesota’s first openly gay Republican elected to office – despite his sexual orientation Koering is anti-abortion and pro-guns – but will his constituents overlook his dinner companion last Sunday, one Brandon Wilde, kind of cute 20 year old gay porn star? The two reportedly dined on a lot of red meat – steak, beef medallions – and Wilde insists that Koering paid for dinner only, despite Wilde admittedly being sometimes employed as an escort. The senator said “I don’t see anything wrong with going out with him. Do I think that being a porn star in the best thing? No. But that’s his choice. I think he’s a nice guy.” (Link NSFW)

Three gay couples, plaintiffs in a suit seeking to overturn Minnesota’s gay marriage ban, named the state as a defendant Tuesday. The decision was made after an attorney for Hennepin County, where the suit was filed, naming as a defendant the official who issues marriage licenses, argued that the suit should be dismissed for not naming Minnesota as a defendant. Mike Freeman argued earlier Tuesday that since the suit seeks to overturn some 500 state laws and regulations that have the effect of denying gay couples numerous rights that are by law extended to married opposite sex couples, the state must be the main defendant.

New York City currently spends $12 million annually supporting shelters for homeless youth, but the city’s budget aims to cut that amount in half, creating a critical situation for LGBT homeless youth. Monday, hundreds of gay, lesbian, and transgendered youth gathered in Union Square to protest the proposed budget cuts, cuts that threaten at group that is already at risk.

David Furnish says that when his partner Elton John received an invitation to perform at Rush Limbaugh’s wedding he was a “little surprised,” but according to Furnish John said that “life is about building bridges, not walls” and that it was an opportunity “to go where people wouldn’t expect me to go.” Furnish says Elton added that “may if I can make a great impression people might change their perspectives on life.”

Not surprising, news that the wedding was presided over by anti-gay hate monger Ken Hutcherson, the Washington State-based “preacher” who has compared gays to adulterers and murders.
