From Somewhere in the Extreme Left - Ann Coulter Joins GoProud

From GOProud's press release: and joemygod.com

Coulter’s official title will be “Honorary Chair and Gay Icon.” “Ann Coulter is a brilliant and fearless leader of the conservative movement, we are honored to have her as part of GOProud’s leadership,” said Christopher Barron, Chairman of GOProud’s Board. “Ann helped put our organization on the map. Politics is full of the meek, the compromising and the apologists – Ann, like GOProud, is the exact opposite of all of those things. We need more Ann Coulters.” “I am honored to serve in this capacity on GOProud’s Advisory Council, and look forward to being the Queen of fabulous,” said Coulter.

Coulter opposes same-sex marriage, ENDA, hate crimes laws, the repeal of DADT, and pretty much any LGBT rights legislation. Therefore, she's a perfect fit for the kapos at GOProud.

Every group has it's extremes. Sports, music, religion, Adult Swim, and art all have members that are so far out there that they are the only ones. It is not to say that extremes are bad but they more often go against the grain of what ever "Normal" is.
On the Right we have groups like the KKK, Natzi, and Hate Groups like the American Family Asses and the National Org. for Marriage.
On the Left we have Gay Activist's Dan Savage and Dan Choi. ( I am on the left and both Dan's are my hero's )
Then somewhere in the extreme left there is GoProud.

This group has truly managed to merge the two extremes to create an anomaly. GoProud is a self-hating, Republican, Conservative, gay group. ( I never thought I would have to see all those things with gay in the same sentence.)

While I thought causing a stink at last years CPAC and being uninvited to this years because they were gay was great! They just proved that no matter what you think, do, or feel, they will never want a queer in their circle. They don't buy the whole gay/Republican/Conservative thing either.

Well they have just out done themselves!

They went and welcomed a woman who hates them to be “Honorary Chair and Gay Icon.” !

This is a WTF moment.

I am of the understanding that an icon in this context is that of someone to be looked up to, held in high esteem, or could impart wisdom. Ann Coulter is the extreme opposite of an icon. More like an i-sore as well as a bigot, blowhard, publicity junky who will say or do anything to be in the news. She is NOT to be confused with a "Fag Hag" because Fag Hags love gays and are way more fun.

The only thing they have in common is the self hating/Republican/Conservative part.

But then as much as she hates us LGBTs.....Hmmmmmmm.

The two things you shouldn't like about Michele Bachmann - her face

From Alvin McEwen of Holy Bullies and Headless Monsters come this truth. Thank you Mr. McEwen

U.S. Representative and presidential candidate Michele Bachmann seems to be "stomping with the big dogs" these days. Recently, she had cover story featured on her in Newsweek magazine. Between you and me though, I think she and her followers are going to be angry at the photo. What is she looking at?

But now Bachmann seems to be tempering off on certain issues. Several sources report that she is allegedly sliding away from the subject of gay marriage, which is strange seeing that her opposition to it helped propel her in the spotlight:

From the Concord Monitor:

“Bachmann cut off an interview last week as she was being asked a question about gay marriage and emphasized that she is focused on rebuilding the economy and repealing federal health care reform.

“I’m not involved in light, frivolous matters,” she said. “I’m not involved in fringe or side issues. I’m involved in serious issues.”

If Bachmann thinks the subject of gay marriage is so frivolous then why did she sign two anti-gay marriage pledges - the recent one being from the National Organization for Marriage.

And why is she participating in a bus tour with NOM across Iowa?

And I haven't even touched her audacity to declare her husband's fraudulent "ex-gay" clinic to be off-limits. Bachmann based this on the notion that "she, and not her husband, is running for president."

It's funny that this notion of "family members being off limits" didn't keep her from slamming First Lady Michele Obama during the 2008 campaign

There is no other way to put it.

Bachmann is a lying, manipulative individual whose behavior reflects the worse of American politics. Throughout history, America has been lucky to have statesmen and women represent us in the White House and Congress. Folks like Dwight Eisenhower, Franklin Roosevelt, Ted Kennedy, Bella Abzug, Jack Kemp, Shirley Chisolm, and Barbara Jordan.

And then we've also had loudmouth, egocentric demagogues not caring who they hurt or what levels of hypocrisy they've stooped to. We've had individuals feeding off of anger and fear and shoveling resentment into the minds of voters with the expediency of a laborer shoveling coal into a furnace to stave off the chill of a wintery day.We've had folks who will lie in our faces while aware of the fact that we know that they are lying, but hoping that the phony sincerity in their voices or their eyes will mesmerize us from the truth.

Michele Bachmann not only fits the latter category, but she sets new heights.

Or rather, lower depths.

Bachmann is a colossal joke, but if the American people continue to propel her career forward, the joke will be on us.

FRC's Prayer Of The Day and Comment

Today the Family Research Council is asking its followers to pray that the nation's judges rule against LGBT equality.

Please pray for our judges, especially on the U.S. Supreme Court, that they will rule aright when they hears these cases. Pray for the lawyers who will argue our position on natural marriage. May pastors and believers across America awaken to what is happening and get engaged! May the Lord intervene to stop these efforts to homosexualize our nation – and to indoctrinate our children with evil! (Ex 23:1-2; Lev 9:15; Dt 1:16-17; 25:1; 1 Sam 8:6-7; Jn 7:24; Rom 1:32; 2 Tim 2:1-8; Jude 7)

The Hate Group, FRC, has daily prayers for their followers and I have no problem with that. I think prayer is good. I pray every day. Mine are more along the lines of helping a sick friend, watching over a friends flight, comfort those in need or fear, helping me find peace and understanding, ...you know...help make the world a better place for all human kind sort of stuff.
I do not pray for made up stuff like "Natural Marriage", whatever that is. Biblical marriage is out of the question. I refer you to the lovely Mrs. Betty Bowers for a quick lesson on that.
I am not in the habit of picking out only the passages I think I will follow while ignoring others or the over all point of the whole word but then I am a pagan and we don't have that many rules or passages to make notations from. We mostly follow the first rule which is "Harm none, do as you will." Notice that "Harm none" comes first and includes yourself.

"efforts to homosexualize our nation" is interesting and I am not sure just what that means.
I am guessing it means to make being gay seem normal/natural, a part of the human condition. I always thought it was and lots of professional people and orgs. say it is. How come when they say it it sounds like a bad thing?

"and to indoctrinate our children with evil!" From Wikipedia, Indoctrination is the process of inculcating ideas, attitudes, cognitive strategies or a professional methodology (see doctrine).^[1] It is often distinguished from education by the fact that the indoctrinated person is expected not to question or critically examine the doctrine they have learned.<sup>[

Education is not indoctrination according to this definition so teaching children that gay people exist, are the same as everyone else, contribute to the community and history as well as ask questions and come to their own conclusions is not an evil thing.
The indoctrinated person is NOT encouraged to ask questions or think outside the doctrine much like the folks at FRC. They are all told being gay is evil and not to think otherwise.


So who wants to "indoctrinate" who?
Have a great day and Blessed Be.</sup>

Kudzu - The Monster Weed

I was Skyping my Mom this morning and found out that the beautiful vine that has covered my back fence is a Monster weed that is taking over the world!

Look up Kudzu at Wikipedia.org and follow the links from there.
Very versatile plant and a good thing too. Is seems we will have to learn how to use the stuff because it is VERY hard to get rid of and is spreading exponentially!

Kudzu can be used in basketry and clothing to  erosion control and also to enhance the soil.   It has been used and tested for its health benefits and for it's culinary delights.
Sounds good right?

Kudzu has been spreading at the rate of 150,000 acres (61,000 ha) annually In the US and has been transported and seen in many other countries around the globe.
It is almost impossible to kill and it can come back years later after you thought it was gone.

I am going to go learn more and maybe try it as a tonic or start weaving baskets. OuuuOuuuOuuu ...I feel a sculpture coming on...

AUSTRALIA: 26 Suicides Blamed On Pedophile Catholic Priests

Even though 26 suicides have been attributed to the actions of pedophile priests such as Father Robert Best (above), local Catholic officials in Australia say that no inquiry is needed into the deaths. All of the suicides occurred at schools where Best taught. He has pleaded guilty to dozens of counts of child molestation.

Bishop Connors on Tuesday said not even revelations from Detective Sergeant Kevin Carson that 26 young men had killed themselves after being abused by priests and brothers in Ballarat convinced him that more would be learnt from an inquiry. "I think we've learnt a lot of things about what is appropriate behaviour and what's not appropriate behaviour," Bishop Connors said. "I think people are very well informed nowadays as to what's inappropriate approaches from a male." While conceding the abuse of children was wrong, he said that in the past it had not always been clear to everyone what was appropriate and inappropriate behaviour. "In the past a lot of ignorance was there on the part of lots of people. Parents didn't understand, sometimes bishops didn't understand. We have no excuse now."

 "it had not always been clear to everyone what was appropriate and inappropriate behaviour." "Catholic officials in Australia say that no inquiry is needed "
Are you F**KING KIDDING ME!

An inquiry IS NEEDED to find out what went on and help any other poor souls that are suffering. It IS needed to jail the ones that did this.

What part of "Keep your hands off the private parts of children" do they not understand?!
What a load of shit and disrespect to those who have lost loved ones and those who suffered.

Every day there are Catholic priests being busted for past and present sex abuse of children and they just keep getting away with it. The church knows this is going on and helps to hide these sick men as well as pay off those who suffered at their hands.
Our government supports this ring of child molesters by giving them tax exempt status.
If this was any other business, they would be shut down!

 

Last Known Gay Surivor Of The Nazis' Concentration Camps Dies At Age 98

Rudolf Brazda, believed to be the last known gay survivor of the Holocaust, has died at the age of 98.

Brazda was sent to the Nazis’ Buchenwald concentration camp in August 1942 and held there until its liberation by U.S. forces in 1945. Nazi Germany declared homosexuality an aberration that threatened the German race, and convicted some 50,000 homosexuals as criminals. An estimated 10,000 to 15,000 gay men were deported to concentration camps, where few survived. When a memorial to the Nazis’ gay victims was unveiled in Berlin in 2008, the LSVD said the last ex-prisoner that it knew of had died three years earlier. But the group said it was then contacted by Brazda, who visited the memorial at its invitation and became an honorary member. Brazda was born in 1913. He grew up in the eastern German town of Meuselwitz and repeatedly ran into trouble with Nazi authorities over his homosexuality before being sent to Buchenwald.

Earlier this year Brazda was named a knight in France's Legion of Honor.

MARYLAND: Guilty Plea In McDonald's Attack On Transwoman

One of the teenagers caught on video in a brutal attack on a transwoman at a Baltimore McDonald's has pleaded guilty.

Teonna Monae Brown, 19, pleaded guilty in a Baltimore County court to one court of first-degree assault and one count of a hate crime in the attack on Chrissy Polis, 22, said Baltimore County State's Attorney Scott Shellenberger. The April attack brought attention nationwide to the plight of transgender people, with thousands signing online petitions and holding rallies. Prosecutors expect to seek a prison term of five years when Brown is sentenced next month.

The second attacker pleaded guilty last month and was sentenced to a juvenile facility.

 

I attended the gathering the night after the attack and had the pleasure of meeting Chrissy at the Gay Pride Parade. She was very nice and humbled that our group, Rainbow Club at the Community College of Baltimore County, had her name on one of our signs for transgender rights.

After watching the video, there was no other option than to plead guilty for both of them. I hope the judge throws the book at Teonna Monae Brown. This is the second time she has started a fight at the same Mc Dees in a year.

BRONX: Elderly Catholic Priest Busted For Molesting Teenage Girl

If any other business had this much child abuse going on they would be raided, shut down, and every one involved or had knowledge of the goings on, would be arrested and jailed.
The Catholic church not only is grossly behind the times but harbors and protects perverts.
They are so anti-gay that they are shutting down adoption centers and food banks everywhere there are anti- discrimination laws. They are NOT thinking about the kids and adults they serve. They are only thinking about the money. Money that goes to hide child molesters and pay off the people they abused.

Why are these child molesters above the law? How many other kids has this sick old man molested behind his robes? How many of these perverts are sitting in jail?

When a member of any other religion is caught or accused at least the other members leave and their ministries fail. The Catholic church just keeps on going.

I can not understand how a person could call themselves a catholic when they don't follow most of the made up "rules" such as no condoms, no pre marital sex, hate gays, and so on. Then to give any money to them to pay off the mounting law suites because of the molesters they protect. That is a SIN !

Father Jaime Duenas was busted inside his own rectory yesterday and charged with molesting a teenage girl.

“She didn’t protest to getting a massage,” Duenas said in his cell before his arraignment last night, according to prosecutors. “She was wearing short skirts.” Duenas was arraigned last night on charges of sexual abuse, forcible touching and endangering the welfare of a child. He was released without bond. The judge ordered the priest to stay away from the victim.

Duenas is 87.

Britian Catholic Staffer Busted with Child Porn

From joemygod.com comes this news of another piece of shit from the Catholic Church...

An official with the Catholic Church has been busted for possessing and producing child porn. Ho hum, you say? How about if he was in charge of stopping people exactly like himself?

A child protection official for the Catholic Church has been caught with 4,000 pictures of child porn. Father-of-four Christopher Jarvis was arrested after uploading pictures of children being abused to a website. Married Jarvis, 49, a former social worker, was employed by the church following sex scandals about pervert priests. His job was to monitor church groups to ensure paedophiles did not gain access to children in the church’s congregations. But he was caught by police in March with more than 4,000 child porn images on his home computer and his work laptop. He admitted 12 counts of making, ­possessing and distributing indecent ­images when he appeared before ­magistrates in Plymouth and is likely to face jail when he returns to court for sentencing next month.
