A Hard Day To Be Gay

In a surprise announcement, New Jersey Governor James McGreevey (D) admitted to having an extra-marital affair with a man. Facing blackmail and extortion from a former employee about the affair, McGreevey said it was time to face the truth. With his wife and parents at his side he stated, "My truth is I am a gay American." He simultaneously announced he would be resigning his post in November.

Not so surprisingly, yet still heartbreaking for thousands of couples married briefly, the California Supreme Court nullified same-sex wedding held in San Francisco six months ago. Citing the mayor had stepped over his jurisdiction to authorize the marriages, they were deemed "void from their inception and a legal nullity".

A hard day to be gay in America indeed.
