Human Rights Campaign statement on Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad that there are no gay people in Iran:
"Today's assertions by President Ahmadinejad that there are no homosexuals in Iran would be simply absurd were it not for the fact that international human rights watchers have long documented some of the most horrific acts of persecution and violence committed against gay people in Iran. These acts of terror have included incarcerations, beatings, and brutal executions. Ahmadinejad's denial that there are gay people in Iran shows the extent to which he devalues the lives of the many citizens his government has and continues to violate."
Senator Larry "Not Gay" Craig now says he won't resign until "legal determinations" are made. Lusty Larry wants to keep his job. Today, a Minnesota judge will hear Larry's "petition to overturn his guilty plea on a disorderly conduct charge in Minneapolis."
