Friend or Foe.


FRIEND THE U.S. SUPREME COURT, for allowing a lesbian to seek parental rights to a child she had helped raise with her now ex-partner. Was Scalia duck hunting that day?

FOE JEFF DROZDA, an Indiana state senator who said he'll introduce legislation in 2007 to bar same-sex couples from adopting and override any pro-gay court decision, saying it is in the best interest of children. Except the interest of the children waiting to be adopted.

FRIEND The SIGMA PHI BETA college fraternity, for allowing transgender students to join. Get ready for the most interesting pledge week ever.

FRIEND The AUSTRALIAN CAPITAL TERRITORY Australian Capital Territory (1991 pop. 276,468), 939 sq mi (2,432 sq km), SE Australia, an enclave within New South Wales, containing Canberra, capital of Australia. It was called the Federal Capital Territory until 1938. Most of the territory consists of an area formerly known as Yass-Canberra, which was ceded to the commonwealth by New South Wales in 1911. In 1915, New South Wales additionally ceded Jervis Bay, providing a potential port for Canberra., that nation's first jurisdiction to legalize same-sex civil unions. Sparsely populated suburbs of the world unite!

FOE MICHAEL SAVAGE, the far-right radio host who said, "You must never elect an overt, pushy lesbian or homosexual to any office.... They will not think about national security. They will only think of gay security, gay security, gay security, gay security, gay security, gay propaganda, gay propaganda, gay security, gay security." He's got to do something about that stutter stut·ter (sttr)
