MIKE HILL<\/strong>. If anti-gay Florida lawmaker won\u2019t resign, strip him from all committee assignments, says Orlando Sun-Sentinel editorial board<\/a>: \u201cThey could reprimand him, censure him or remove him from office.

Or they could let him stay where he is and give Floridians regular reminders that homophobia is allowed to thrive in the GOP-controlled state Capitol.\u201d<\/p>\n

COVER BOY<\/strong>. Wilson Cruz on Entertainment Weekly<\/em><\/a>: \u201cI was still in the closet when we made the pilot, but I had made an arrangement with myself that if the show got picked up, that I would come out to my parents.
