It was a week of big losses and big victories for the LGBT movement.
But one big winner? Biting satire calling out the ridiculousness of the anti-equality forces.
First up is the Daily Show's take on the Maine Marriage Vote:

Can't Get Queer From Here
Maine voters want to be tolerant of gays, but they ban same-sex marriage anyway.
More Videos after the jump...
Next, Stephen Colbert does a great piece on the Salt Lake City gay couple who were arrested after kissing on Mormon Church property:

| Nailed 'Em - Mormon Church Trespassing | ||||
| ||||
The Mormon Church arrested Derek Jones and Matt Aune for criminal trespassing, not for being gay.
Colbert also pointed out the right-wing's penchant for coining sexually-loaded names for their protests- teabaggers, 2M4M, and now "Guy Fawkers":
| The Colbert Report | Mon - Thurs 11:30pm / 10:30c | |||
| Guy-Fawkers | ||||
| ||||
Michele Bachmann one-ups the tea party protests by holding a health care reform rally on Guy Fawkes Day.
And just because this is brilliant- Jon Stewart skewers Glenn Beck. Perfection:
| The Daily Show With Jon Stewart | Mon - Thurs 11p / 10c | |||
| The 11/3 Project | ||||
| ||||
There's a war going on in America, and the stakes are nothing less than Glenn Beck's internal organs.
Start lining up the Emmys, please!
Hunger Games 2 comes out soon and I can't wait. I've read the series of books (and shared it with a few folks via Kindle!). How many of you are excited to see it come out?
