The Iranian president attempts to suppress the opposition party's newspaper; claims it's because they don't run "Cathy."

Defense Secretary Robert Gates is looking at new ways to enforce the military's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy selectively… which means some gays get the shit beat out of them and some don't?
