Indiana politics has dominated Bilerico Project this week. My post asking readers to send in the dirt on hypocritical "family values" state legislators who voted for a marraige amendment resulted in a media firestorm and the state senate responded by upping the stakes with a bill to ban same-sex couples from even getting domestic partner benefits. What happened in the rest of the country? Here are the best posts from the past week so you can catch up:

Mr. Allen West should give respect to the House of Reps. and to the President of the United States of America. Allen West is not respecting the US constitution by bashing the American minorities such as the American Muslims. After he becomes elected few weeks ago started to attack members of the Congress who served for years. I do not think that Allen West belongs to our honorable House and he brought shame to our Government. Allen West should change his unprofessional style and remember that he and the rest of our Government are watched by the rest of the world. We are not in Iraq anymore and he still think that he is in the battle field. For sure he is making us look bad. When he was in Iraq he was almost thrown out due to his inhumane behavior that brought shame to the US Army and now he is doing it again.
