"Woods' wife, Elin Nordegren, told the police she was inside the house when she heard the accident. She said she went outside and used a golf club to break out the rear window of the vehicle, then pulled him from the SUV."

Oh really, she broke the rear window of the SUV, crawled over two rows of seats and god knows how many bags of golf clubs to get him, instead of one of the huge side windows? hmmmm....

Not a mention of a much more believable storyon TMZ.com:

This is very encouraging. Forgive me if this has been diaried and I missed it.

The terribly propagandistic Whitehouse.gov website of you-know-who has been replaced with the new administration's website.

For all of you out there who want hope for the LGBT community, please, drop whatever you are doing and go to the section on Civil Rights. Make sure and bring the Kleenex...this made me a little weepy. If you are as invested in the fight for LGBT rights as I am, you are going to need them.

I will publish the pertinent parts below...but you might want to see them on the governments website...otherwise I doubt you will believe me.

I, like many other GLBT Americans, sat down yesterday to watch the Inaugural Concert, anxious for whatever satisfaction I could get out of the parts that would include or reference my community, who in recent years has come under increasing attack from the right and from some churches.

Is anyone else here familiar with the Garth Brooks song, "We Shall Be Free"?

It's a favorite of mine because it includes references, in poetic terms, to many of my pet issues: environmentalism, racism, religious intolerance, and especially homophobia.

So when Garth started performing that one, my ears perked up and I was excited.

Imagine my disappointment when I didn't hear the lines that I memorized years ago...they were conspicuously missing:

When we're free to love anyone we choose
When this worlds big enough for all different views
When we all can worship from our own kind of pew
Then we shall be free.

Bishop Robinson wasn't the only thing missing yesterday at the concert.
