Pissed at Gropinator? Give to Angelides, Now!

Fri Sep 30, 2005 at 12:06:55 AM PDT

As all, I am disgusted by the Gropinator's veto of the gay marriage bill. The best way we can exact our revenge on this NAZI bastard is to give to his challenger, Phil Angelides.

We need a Progressive vs. Hillary in '06, honestly!

Thu Aug 18, 2005 at 01:48:06 AM PDT

I live am a Progressive, anti-war New Yorker. I live in Queens. Hillary is my Senator, and I couldn't be less thrilled. I am not about to bash her or be rude, I just think she is not moving in the same direction as the people of NY.

While she is moving right and is pro-war, us here on the ground, are extremely opposed to this war and are looking for peace and answers, more so by the day.

Does OBL have the 380 tons of Unsecured Explosives ?

Fri Oct 29, 2004 at 03:41:47 PM PDT

Did Osama get his hands on the 380 tons of explosives that were stolen from Al Qa Qaa?  More importantly, does George W Bush know? How about the oft campaining National Security Adviser to the President?

Does the oft campaigning Director of Homeland Security know if these explosives have entered U.S. ports? And if they have was Osama responsible?

Last but not least:  WHY IS OSAMA BIN LADEN STILL ALIVE AND FREE? WHY DON'T WE KNOW WHERE HE IS? WHY DOESN"T BUSH HOLD A PRESS CONF. TO ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS?

Mary Cheney Should Be Ashamed...

Thu Oct 14, 2004 at 01:41:02 PM PDT

    Mary Cheney ought to be very ashamed of her parents right now. As a gay male, I would be devistated if my mother went balistic because somebody stood up for me. I am openly gay, never hid it from anyone. If somebody stood up and said that my mom and dad were right to love me and support me for the person that I was born as, and then an hour later to have my own mom come out and say that it was tawdry to do so....I certainly would not be spending the holidays at home. Especialy if my mom was a famous sex novelist. Poor Mary! They didn't even let her go on the stage at the RNC. My heart goes out to anyone who has parents that don't accept them or love them enough! I am glad my parents are proud of me and not ashamed. I don't know how Lynne and Dick can live with themselves.

W Had that Deer in the Headlights look....

Fri Oct 08, 2004 at 11:56:53 PM PDT

I forget what network I was watching at the time, but it was a split screen, Kerry attacking and there was a close up of Bush. He had the exact same look as he did when he hid in the classroom for so long on 9/11. It was either just before or after the whole meltdown assault on Gibson. I remember saying aloud "This guy is friggin' NUTS". I seriously believe this man is unhinged! He has the look and temperment of a madman! He scared me....just to think that he has his finger on the button is a frightening thought!

Help The Woman that was Fired for supporting Kerry!

Tue Sep 14, 2004 at 01:31:40 PM PDT

From Americablog:

PLEASE HELP: Woman fired from factory for having Kerry sticker on her car
by John in DC - 9/14/2004 09:39:02 AM

UPDATE: We've raised $1507 so far to help this woman out. Let's raise some more! And apparently the ACLU has already looked into her case - she's toast. No law that says you can't fire someone for their political views. How crazy is that?

I kid you not. This story is horrendous. The woman had a John Kerry sticker on her car and got fired for it. She now has no income for 3 weeks while the state decides if she can get unemployment. Let's provide her with a little income. I've set up a PayPal account you can donate to, and EVERY DIME will go to this woman. I've done this before, quite successfully, with other folks in need, so members of my email list will be familiar that I'm an honest broker with stuff like this. 100% of what you donate via the button below will be given to this woman.

Anti-Bush Protest in Queens

Wed Sep 01, 2004 at 06:56:13 PM PDT

I was there and it was great! A few hundred people screaming! There were about a dozen teens that were fantastic! I was very proud to see them there. There were several pro-Bush losers there but nobody could here them. One sad little woman kept screaming "Kerry is the President of Vietnam". How stupid!  My favorite cheer of the night was " We need a leader not a Liar". Favorite sign..."Bush is a Girley Man".  BTW..They were both my Ideas...

CNN refuses to air Log Cabin Ad !!

Tue Aug 31, 2004 at 11:57:23 AM PDT

CNN refusing to run a television ad campaign produced by the Log Cabin Republicans.

In a letter to the gay Republican group the Cable News Network said that images in the ad are "too controversial."

The 30-second commercial aims to counter what the gay Republican group sees as an extreme right wing takeover of the party.

Monday, delegates to the Republican National Convention approved a conservative platform that endorses an amendment to the Constitution to prevent gay couples from any form of recognition and calls for curbs on federal judges from ruling in cases involving gay marriage or domestic partnerships. (story)

The LCR commercial is being broadcast on other cable stations nationwide.

The ad begins with footage from President Ronald Reagan's 1992 speech at the Republican National Convention in Houston.  President Reagan said, "Whatever else history may say about me when I'm gone, I hope it will record that I appealed to your best hopes, not your worst fears."  

The commercial offers a clear choice for the GOP, the Log Cabin Republicans say: "Either follow President Reagan's lead by uniting Republicans on common beliefs or follow Jerry Falwell, Pat Buchanan and Rick Santorum's lead by dividing the GOP with an intolerant social agenda based on fear and exclusion."

The ad closes with images of the Reverend Fred Phelps holding a sign that reads "God Hates Fags," at the funeral of hate crime victim Matthew Shepard.

"We are deeply disappointed that CNN has refused our voices the opportunity to be heard, said  Log Cabin Executive Director Patrick Guerriero.

"Last week we told the Republican Party that you cannot sugarcoat the vicious and mean-spirited platform, today we want CNN to know that you cannot sugarcoat the politics of fear and intolerance that lead to hate."

The group is so concerned about the platform and President Bush's position on the proposed amendment to ban gay marriage that it will not endorse his reelection bid during the convention.

LCR said it would meet next week to decided what to do about supporting Bush.

It's OK to play Shitboat Liars but not us fags standing up for ourselves!

CNN has been forever blocked on my cable box! I won't watch them again! EVER!

Savor this Headline: DRY-DRUNK PRESIDENT LOSING HIS GRIP?

Mon Jun 21, 2004 at 02:40:08 PM PDT

Those in recovery circles around America already know that our president is a man that is, well, a dry drunk. The reports of his boozin' and druggin' are well known. The man should had been in a 12 step program 25 years ago. But with daddy being so perfect and important, he could not risk all the bad press. So they stuck him in the basement to sweat and scream and release his demons. The result? A born again Christian, dry drunk, nut job.

Which brings me to this: DRY-DRUNK PRESIDENT LOSING HIS GRIP?

The lies, delusions and deceptions of George W. Bush have reached a point where the "dry drunk" madness and the "stinking thinking" in his frighteningly flawed mind are what drives all his remarks on the bogus al-Qaida-Iraq connection and the president's rigid, judgmental world view.

New Torture Photos?

Sun Jun 20, 2004 at 12:27:08 AM PDT

There are new photos on Ogrish.com that are supposed to be new Abu Ghareb photos. I can't seem to link just the photos without them being redirected to their hompage. So unfortunately there is SOME porn on homepage. If you go to the homepage, scroll down, there is a group of photos called New torture photos...they look like our troops abusing Iraqi's. I don't want to link to a site that has SOME porn, so check it out for yourself and tell me it these are new (REAL)pics. If they are, then why are they not in the SCLM?
