Quinn comes out shortly after answering yes to Stephen Colbert’s question “are you the gay guv of Illinois”?

I didn’t want to do this BUT, you get cut, you maybe not, you get cut….

Gov. Quinn in his “Sistine Chapel” look. Moses the Lawgiver has horns similar to the govs. And there is the painting of God reaching out his finger to touch mankind. Seems no one in the Pride Parade wants to be on the receiving end of that.

Illinois Governor answers age old question, is it possible to use a sunscreen with too high of an SPF?
Comment by Just sayin Monday, Jun 29, 09 @ 12:53 pm
Young man, there’s no need to feel down.
I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground,
I said, young man, ’cause you’re new in town.
There’s no need to be unhappy.
It’s fun to stay at the y-m-c-a…

You can stay there, and I’m sure you will find
Many ways to have a good time.

Once I had a love and it was divine.
Soon found out I was losing my mind.
It seemed like the real thing but I was so blind.
Mucho mistrust.
Love’s gone behind.

You, yes YOU! Don’t stand too close to me! I may be marching with your group but that doesn’t mean that I want to be here with you. Keep a minimum of a 20 foot distance between us.

[…] Rich Miller and Capitol Fax had this picture yesterday of Pat Quinn at the Pride Parade. He’s trying his best to be like his predecessor, who loved to walk the parade. Caption contest, anyone? […]
