So true, OMG, with all things so amazing in our country and around the world, yes lets tackle those things that are extremely damaging like NPR or Public Broadcasting. I love the sarcasm of Rep. Weiner, his existence in the house just gets better and better!
Great interview with the late Harvey Milk on the show News Talk shortly before his assassination. This is over 30 years ago, and still, their conversation holds true to today’s politics
Friend and activist, Father Geoff Farrow-a former priest and veteran hand-cuffed himself along with others to the gates of the White House to encourage the lame duck congress to repeal DADT immediately. Please CLICK HERE for more on Father Geoff and why Father Geoff fights!
First of all, for those of you who voted, consider yourselves lucky, its quite a luxury to be able to have the final say…even though 10 years ago, our final say may have been altered [cough] Dade County, FL [cough]. As residents of California, we are happy with some of the results! Governor-Elect Brown, Lt. Gov-Elect Newsom, Sen. Boxer and others. However, we are unsettled by our home state of Illinois since Mark Kirk was elected US Senator-an anti-Gay individual who may cause trouble for himself more than others. READ HERE from Towleroad.
Why we picked out Mark Kirk to talk about is that there is this denial in the air. The air is thick with denial. Untruthful candidates-not that surprising, but do politicians have to change because of the 24 hr news cycle, and blogs? Or do they just have to be honest of who they are, where they are coming from, and maybe ask “Where will I be in X amount of years?” Will I be honest about who I am, telling my constituents that I was honest with them or myself, or just plain lied? It may be a victory for Mark Kirk, but the closet doors are creaking, and if the doors do open, what then?
We usually hate this question when asked in interviews, but if we really thought about it in a grand scale and asked candidates Where will you, your home life, your private life, sex life, future bills, future votes, strengths, and pending weaknesses will you see by the end of your first term? There would be some interesting answers. It needs to be asked more.
In past postings, we have supported Newsom for Governor and we were disappointed that he decided to resign from the race. However, we are very happy that he is running for Lt. Governor of CA which enables him to serve as President of the State Senate and the Acting Governor of California in the event that the Governor is absent from the state or is unable to perform the duties of office, or if a vacancy of office occurs. Here is a commercial we are in listening to Mayor Newsom on his plans for California. (You can see the back of our heads anyway)
Our Interview with Former President Bill Clinton. After you watch this, you will notice how out of date DOMA is (now unconstitutional) and how President Clinton’s views have changed since he was in office.
Anita Bryant will be making appearances again, this time in the state of Oklahoma…thanks to Rep. Sally Kern who, with Bryant, shares negative opinions of the Homosexual community. We wonder if pie will be served?
