Bisexuals Kicked Off Of Softball Team for "Not Being Gay Enough?"

From Tuesdays Seattle Times

Three bisexual men are suing a national gay-athletic organization, saying they were discriminated against during the Gay Softball World Series held in the Seattle area two years ago.

The three Bay Area men say the North American Gay Amateur Athletic Alliance in essence deemed them not gay enough to participate in the series.

The lawsuit filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Seattle accuses the alliance of violating Washington state laws barring discrimination. The alliance organizes the annual Gay Softball World Series.

---------------

The alliance's rules say that each World Series team can have no more than two heterosexual players. According to the lawsuit, a competing team accused D2 of violating that rule.

Each of the three plaintiffs was called into a conference room in front of more than 25 people, and was asked "personal and intrusive questions" about his sexual attractions and desires, purportedly to determine if the player was heterosexual or gay, the lawsuit alleges. The alliance has no category or definition for bisexual or transgender people in its rules, the plaintiff's attorney said.

At one point during the proceedings, the lawsuit alleges, one of the plaintiffs was told: "This is the Gay World Series, not the Bisexual World Series."

Isn't this basically what straights are constantly being accused of doing?

Isn’t it hypocritical to mandate the number of straights allowed to play in the North American Gay Amateur Athletic Alliance, while calling for unlimited numbers of Open Gays be included elsewhere?

Isn’t it wrong to cry about discrimination, when you discriminate yourself?

Shouldn't the North American Gay Amateur Athletic Alliance adopt their own "Don't Ask Don't Tell" policy?

HOMOSEXUALS, LIBERALS, AND LAWYERS ATTACK BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA

HOMOSEXUALS, LIBERALS, AND LAWYERS ATTACK BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA


By Attorney Rees Lloyd

The Boy Scouts of America is perhaps the finest organization ever created to assist American boys to become responsible men and citizens. Over a million adults annually contribute uncountable volunteer hours to the BSA, assisting almost three million Boy Scouts.

However, among those millions of patriotic men of the BSA, are a very few predatory homosexuals who insinuate themselves into the BSA to prey sexually on boys.

As a result, predatory homosexuals with views on sex like those of the North American Man Boy Love Association (NAMBLA), predatory liberals epitomized by the ACLU – --- which represents and defends NAMBLA while attacking the BSA, and predatory lawyers posturing public interest purity while raking in fees at the expense of BSA and taxpayers, combine to damage if not destroy the BSA through lawsuits which place the BSA between the proverbial rock and a hard place.

That is, BSA, on one hand, is assailed by lawsuits – most by the ACLU -- which claim BSA is composed of loathsome homophobes who discriminate against homosexuals by barring them from positions as adult Scout leaders.

On the other hand, BSA is attacked by lawsuits seeking millions from BSA for allegedly failing to protect boys from homosexual predators.

Thus, the BSA appears to be damned if it bans homosexuals as adult volunteers, and damned if it doesn’t.

------------------------

It appears that ever since the U.S. Supreme Court ruled against the ACLU and held that the BSA as a private organization has the right to determine whom it will allow to serve as adult troop leaders, that the ACLU has set out revengefully to destroy the BSA by lawsuits and other means, including joining with homosexual activists, and other politically-correct liberals, to demand that governmental units withdraw support from the BSA – which hundreds if not thousands have done across the country.


ACLU’s vicious use of the courts is illuminated by its act, after losing the BSA case in the Supreme Court, to send letters, along with related ultra-liberal organizations, to all or almost all school boards and districts in the country, warning them that if they did not cease to sponsor Boy Scout Troops, ACLU, or related organizations, would sue on grounds including that the BSA discriminates against homosexuals and/or is a “religious” organization because the Boy Scout oath refers to God. ACLU threatened it would seek judge-ordered, taxpayer-paid attorney fees from the schools.

Such threats of the ACLU are not idle. The ACLU, for example, sued a Washington school district to drive out the Boy Scouts, and sought and received $108,000 in attorney fees. When ACLU sued Chicago schools for sponsoring Boy Scout Troops, the school board settled almost immediately, kicking out the Scouts, and giving the ACLU $90,000 in attorney fees. The ACLU sued the City of San Diego on behalf of homosexuals to kick the Boy Scouts out of Balboa Park, ultimately resulting in a settlement in which San Diego broke the Boy Scouts’ lease at Balboa Park, and handed ACLU “$950,000” in attorney fees. Most Americans are unaware that the ACLU, which postures as a pro bono organization, in fact profits in the millions by taxpayer-paid attorney fees in such cases.

The BSA, in response to ACLU’s threats to schools, sent out letters to school districts thanking them for sponsoring Boy Scout troops, but asking them to cease doing so as BSA did not want school funds to be diverted. Most schools, faced with ACLU’s threats, stopped sponsoring Boy Scout Troops.

He has testified as a constitutional expert at hearings before the U.S. House and Senate representing The American Legion.

How $Green$ Is The Green Movement?

For some time we have heard about all of the concern several Environmental Groups have in saving the earth, curbing pollution and stopping Global Warming. I first began hearing the cries coming mostly from bleeding heart liberals back in the 1960’s.

Who would have thought that such “grassroots” groups, opposed to big business would themselves become very wealthy big businesses?

Not only do we see massive hypocrisy as they travel the globe warning others of the hazards of not following their word in private jets and being driven to seminars in luxurious gas guzzling limousines, or own mansions like Global Warming guru, former Vice-President and failed presidential candidate Al Gore’s, that uses more electricity in a month than a whole city does, now we see through public records just how much “Green” money they rake in every year and how well paid their CEO’s are.

With all the cries over CEO pay being too high, do you ever wonder why such leftists are not criticized for their wealth? With the pending Cap & Trade coming our way soon, most likely to be “Rahmmed” down our throats like Obamacare was, it’s easy to see who will be able to afford $7.00 a gallon gasoline and double the costs to heat and light our homes.

Our friends at Freedom Action have looked through IRS Form 990’s for such Environmental and other “non-profits” and assembled an ad, that you may see here, showing us just how “Green” these Environmental big businesses and their CEO’s have become with our dollars.

From that ad we see,

Alliance For Climate Protection raised $88,303,373 and paid CEO Cathy Zoi $330,280

Environmental Defense Fund raised $125,425,925 and paid CEO Frederick D. Krupp $474,596

National Wildlife Federation raised $94,573,828 and paid CEO Larry J. Schweiger $345,004

Natural Resources Defense Council raised $107,999,911 and paid CEO Frances Beincke $432,959

The Nature Conservancy raised $856,246,824 and split $592,298 between CEO’s serving part of year, Stephanie K. Meeks $386,348 and Mark R. Tereck $205,950.

Pew Center On Global Climate Change raised $1,338,294 and paid CEO Eileen Clausen $335,099.

World Resources Institute raised $21,224,697 and paid CEO Jonathan Lash $385,388.

World Wildlife Fund raised $151,560,547 and paid CEO Carter Roberts $509,699.


From where I sit, it appears that Green has gotten VERY Green, especially in their wallets.

Lest you think I am jealous of their wages, I have no real objection to what they make. But isn’t it hypocritical that these same groups would decry what others make and use the false cry of manmade global warming to do so?

Isn’t it fear mongering to label others as polluters and making obscene profits, when it is they who jet around the world and have expensive vehicles at their service to ferry them to and fro?

While there may have been legitimate concerns within these groups back in the days of the dope smoking hippies, it is obvious that the real concerns now is growing their funding and collecting fat paychecks.

With all the charges of “Corporatism” flying about, isn’t it odd to read of how many movements became themselves corporations and willfully received large donations from the very corporations they were vilifying?

A couple years ago, Christine MacDonald, formerly of Conservation International penned a book, “Green, Inc.: An Environmental Insider Reveals How a Good Cause Has Gone Bad,” that reveals her disillusionment with the movements “wanton nepotism, executive salary bloat, and an all-too-cozy relationship with corporate donors.”

A quote from the book posted at the New York Times Blog, Green Inc. says,
“Why must conservation leaders make more than 99 percent of U.S. taxpayers? Once they get used to such lavish pay, doesn’t it follow that fundraising — to keep those salaries coming — would trump their core mission?”


I couldn’t agree more.

We conservatives don’t need lavish luxuries and massive salaries to keep our areas clean and conserve resources. We believe in balance and that would include using resources within our own borders denied us, forcing us to rely on foreign often hostile towards us.

Next time you are approached by someone seeking donations to “Help Keep Mother Earth Green,” stop and think if it is really the Earth you are keeping Green, or some fat cat liberal CEO.

Delusional Obama Says I Should Thank Him?

It’s hard to express just how outrageous it is to read Barack Obama saying we should thank him for “tax cuts” given the condition of the economy that continues to deteriorate under his alleged leadership.

An April 15 article by Sam Youngman in the Hill tells us Obama ‘amused’ by Tea Party rallies. How quaint that he is “amused” at the outrage of so many middle class taxpayers across the nation.

More outrageous is reading his words in the article, “they should be saying thank you” over some ghost tax cuts I am told we received. Looking at my 1040 I just filed, I don’t see any cuts and in fact, am paying more than I did during the years of Bush.

When it comes to being middle class, I don’t see many that could be more blue collar middle class than I am. In all my 40 plus years working, I’ve barely exceeded $40,000 only a couple times and that was during what we were told was the worst economy since the depression during the Bush years.

That anyone could think I should thank the poseur in chief just astonishes me as I was employed for 20 years at a Dodge dealership that was one of the 789 the Obama administration decided needed closed down in 2009. Needless to say, factory trained technicians were no longer needed without manufacturer backing or support and I joined the ranks of the unemployed for the first time in over 30 years.

At 61 years of age, job prospects are nil when living where the unemployment remains close to 15%.

Filling out my taxes this year, I saw that even between my wife and I, our combined incomes had dropped over $5,000, placing us closer to lower middle class in earnings than ever before.

Taking every legal deduction I am allowed, I owed the IRS just under $1,000 this year instead of receiving a couple hundred back as I usually did all through the Bush years.

Sorry, but I just don’t see anything to thank Obama for.

I’m sure that I am not the only one, seeing thousands of ordinary people outraged and standing up, attending Tea Parties and letting Obama and his Democratic Politburo know we are outraged and fed up with “Hope and Change” that is nothing more than smoke and mirrors.

Obama’s arrogance and narcissism is revealed in his even thinking anyone should thank him.

The country is more divided than it has ever been since the Civil War.

We have alienated long time allies by his indifference and social snubbing of their leaders.

The racist attitude and open hostility towards White Christians both he and his wife Michelle display have set back race relations a good 40 years in America.

The economy is approaching that of the great depression and Obama nationalizing industry and issuing “orders” from the White House to private business has only made it all worse.

And for this, we should be saying “thank you?”

What the hell for?

The only one who could possibly thank this poseur would be Jimmy Carter as he is now only the second worse president in American history.

UPDATE: Received in email and posted by permission,

So the president is amused by the tea party. Well he is actually making progress, because last year he had not heard of it or them..So congratulations, because in the spoon fed delusional world of self worship he lives in, he is actually allowing things to get through to the rather thick skull of arrogance and social superiority complex he suffers from. In any event, I am not amused by his willful destruction of the constitution, by the amount of debt he is creating, by the kickbacks to George Soros and friends. I am not amused that he uses air force one like a carnival ride, to impress his friends and win votes, that he gave the nukes up with nothing in return, that he announced oil drilling as a ploy in the year of 2017. I am not amused at the passage of health care, nor am I amused about cap and trade. I am not amused about his relationship with Bill Ayers. I am not amused with Nancy Pelosi, or Harry Reid, or Barney Frank, or Chris Dodd or any of his self appointed czars. I am not amused about his arrogance, and his disrespectful view of a group of people he represents. I am not amused by his treatment of Benjamin Netanyahu, and I surely am not amused by his conversion of a free society into a government and union controlled nanny state. So, in conclusion, Barrack, you go right ahead and be amused. In fact, laugh, mock, and poke fun of all you want. But in conclusion, it is your lack of greatness, inspiration, vision, clarity, purpose, and hope for the genius of a free society to succeed because of their own individual efforts that has actually allowed the tea party to exist. In fact be amused because the tea party has had the courage to stand for all the things you do not, including but not limited to fiscal conservatism. They are willing to pay the price for believing in our Country and her people, not as a group event dictated to by the likes of you, but because of their own individual sense of self worth, self respect, and individual pride. I would hope you understand this, but really do not expect you to, because these are not your own words to be worshipped... I was not able to attend a tea party yesterday, but my heart and hope is with their success. I love that part of a free society...

GOP Aide and Boyfriend Savagely Beaten, Hospitalized

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal’s chief fundraiser Alexandra “Allee” Bautsch and her boyfriend Joe Brown were savagely attacked and beaten Friday night after leaving a GOP fundraising dinner in New Orleans. Allee Bautch sufffered a broken leg and her boyfriend, Joe Brown received a broken jaw and nose and a concussion.

Leftists had been protesting outside Brennan’s Restaurant, where the fundraising dinner was held, but attacked the couple afterwards a couple blocks away. Bautsch recalls hearing one of the attackers say “Let’s get them, they have Palin pins on.”

The Hayride blog has several links to local reports, video of the leftist protest and quotes of the leftist vitriol concerning this uncalled for attack.

Substitute “Jew” where you hear “Republican” and we are beginning to look more and more like 1930’s Germany. Und, vast ist Herr Obama doink to calm the nation and his dogs? NUTTINK!!

Don't look for two Republicans being savagely attacked and beaten to make national news. It isn't as newsworthy as Michelle Obama and Jill Biden helicoptering over Haiti.

Note to Cindy Sheehan: It Isn’t War That We Honor

Apparently tired of being insignificant and after having her clock cleaned by San Fran Nan in last year’s election, self-proclaimed Peacenik, Cindy Sheehan, continues to dance on her hero sons’ grave.

Sheehan made news after being recruited by Kerry campaign in 2004 to oppose President Bush’s reelection due to her son, Casey, giving his life in the Iraq Theater of the War on Terror earlier. Having gotten used to the limelight, she continues to travel about, on someone’s money, still harping against the war and whoever leads it.

Bush is gone so Obama is the bad guy in her eyes now and there is no ditch for her spend her days in and stand before on TV appearances outside the White House.

Crawling back out of the woodwork recently, she popped up in Scranton, Pennsylvania where she “was turned down by half a dozen area venues that organizers approached to host her, most notably the Roman Catholic Diocese of Scranton” leading Sheehan to proclaim, “This is the first time I've been shut out of an entire community.”

Never at a loss of words, no matter how much they may embolden our enemies or wrong they may be, Sheehan made her pitch outside, “I come with the message that killing is wrong, a pro-life message,” said the woman who classifies those who behead our people, stone 14-year-old girls to death for being raped, attack Mosques killing any who might not agree with their perverted interpretation of the Holy Qur’an and who generally terrorize others to gain oppressive control as “Freedom Fighters.”

Sheehan, who once labeled Viet Nam Veterans as “Rightist Haters of America” and Slandered General Petraeus asked, “Who says that one American soldier’s life is better than an Iraqi baby, or a Pakistani baby or an Afghan baby. Who made the value of an American life more than any other life?”

That she could even ask that, after her own son sacrificed his life in defense of innocent Iraqis leaves me near speechless. Does she consider those “Freedom Fighters” more precious than her own son, whose grave she continues to dance on?

Like many so-called “peace activists,” Sheehan displays no appreciation for those who willingly place themselves between us and our enemies. To them, our brave Soldiers are little more than a tool for them to parade out in their “rush to surrender.”

In criticizing sayings etched into a Veterans Memorial that surrounds the courthouse there, Sheehan said, “I find it despicable that this courthouse is festooned with pro-war sentiment. War – I’m sorry, it doesn’t matter how many quotes you can find - war is not noble.”

Here’s a newsflash for Ms. Sheehan. It isn’t war we honor on those Memorials or that we see as noble. It is men and women, such as your son that we find noble and honor.

It is all who stand up to defend our freedoms and liberties, especially the fallen.
We honor the Scott Stanton’sand the Bob Pilk’s, two of the thirteen who also paid the ultimate sacrifice out of my unit in Viet Nam while I was there that we give honor too.

It is the Casey Sheehan’s that are due the honor and that we find noble, not the war itself. We despise war and when one is thrust upon us, desire to fight it and end it in victory as soon as possible, not surrender to those who would deny us the freedom and liberty our founders bestowed upon us.

“Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.” (John 15:13)

That is your son, Cindy. That is every single one of those men & women who have voluntarily walked into the line of fire on our behalf with the desire to live, but willing to lay down their lives so others may have a decent chance at life.

That is not despicable. That is honor. That is noble, not the war.

What is despicable is that so many of us honor your son’s sacrifice and memory more than you do.

UPDATE: Sheehan has written one of the most inflammatory condemnations of the Troops I've read to date. Does she not see it is her own son she is denigrating?

From her post Take This Empire and Shove It!

And what about this Cult of Troop Worship? Even the antiwar movement is so careful to not criticize anything The Troops do. We are constantly admonished to “hate the war, but love the warrior.” I am sorry, but I don’t even like that word, “warrior.” It implies that our children join the military to commit war crimes, but we all know that most of our children join for education benefits, or health insurance. “Warrior” also implies that we live in a War State—which we do—but the antiwar movement does not have to use the nomenclature of The Empire. Most of us teach our children the difference between right and wrong, but when our young people become The Troops they receive a thorough brainwashing and get sent off to murder and rape children and pregnant women. Our kids become hired goons for imperial greed—more like victims of a system that neglects everyone’s essential needs, than heroes.

What an unbelievably hateful thing to say about those who would protect even her, especially her own son.

Mark Levin on Illegal Immigration

Waterboarding Out, Assassination In

Perhaps in a move to prevent Obama from incurring the wrath of the American public over allegations of "torture," Obama has issued a directive that should American Citizen and fugitive Sheikh Anwar al-Awlaki be seen, just kill him!

President George W. Bush, as despised as he was and facing the wrath of so many, is not known to have ever issued any such directive. No U.S. President is known to have, prior to now.

Awlaki’s father says, “I am now afraid of what they will do with my son, he’s not Osama Bin Laden, they want to make something out of him that he’s not. How can the American government kill one of their own citizens? This is a legal issue that needs to be answered.”

Good thing Obama said we will no longer “torture.”

Organizing for America Misleads On the “Rape” Of Healthcare Reform


In yet another blatant attempt to pull the wool over the average American’s eyes, Organizing for America, a decidedly pro-Obama far left group has placed a video online that, if taken at face value, deludes taxpayers and the masses into believing all the cares and worries you have had are over.

Organizing For America Video

While the video is very professionally done and appealing, down to the inclusion of Obama’s signature logo at the end and such appealing music with the soft “about time” spoken in the background, reality has begun to set in with some who couldn’t wait for the new “freebie.”

McClatchy Newspapers, not exactly the most conservative of sources, recently brought much of this out with their article, Health care overhaul spawns mass confusion for public.

Telling us of how insurance companies, doctors' offices, human resources departments and business groups have been deluged with calls asking to sign up, we read of a reply given from eHealthInsurance.com’s Carrie McLean who says,

“We tell them it’s not free, that there are going to be things in place that help people who are low-income, but that ultimately most of that is not going to be taking place until 2014.”


And, those “pre-existing conditions” the video so prominently mentions are now covered and cannot be refused? McClatchy says in the article,
“Adults with pre-existing conditions are frustrated to learn that insurers won’t have to cover them until 2014 (though those under 18 will be protected in late September); then they become both hopeful and confused upon learning that a federal high-risk pool for them will be established in the next few months.”


And, those tax cuts and benefits? Most have no idea that what their employers pay for their health insurance they receive through work are now taxable income to be reported on your W-2 every year.

That’s right. If your employer spends $3,000 for his portion of your health insurance, you pay taxes on $3,000 more in income every year.

OFA speaks of how small business will be helped by this. The National Federation of Independent Business’s Michelle Dimarob, manager of legislative affairs states,
“the lobby’s primary concern was that its costs would rise over the next four years as a result of fees, taxes and coverage mandates related to the overhaul. The next question that comes out of their mouths is, ‘What do I have to do right now?’ They need to start talking with their accountant, depending on how they’re organized, what industry they’re in and whether they’re offering insurance now and what kind they’re offering. We’re suggesting they talk to their agent or broker.”


Ms. Dimarob also says,
“While Obama has been touting a tax credit for small businesses that offer employees health coverage, many small businesses wouldn’t be able to participate. First they must do research to see whether they qualify. It requires them to understand the intricacies.”


And, Americans now will have “more choices?” Not according to the April 6, 2010 New York Times article, In Medicine, the Power of No that says,
“Learning to say no more often will be a three-step process, and if the new agencies created by the health act are run well, they can help with all three.”


Add to the mix comments from supporters, such as those by Florida Democrat Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz trying to convince constituents that the “Health Care Law Doesn’t Require Individuals to Buy Insurance.”

No Debbie, you just get hit with stiff fines if you don’t. Or, as her press secretary puts it,
“You have a choice of insuring yourself with affordable coverage, or paying an assessment that will offset the burden you place on other insured Americans and taxpayers by not being insured.”


Little wonder Obama has had to “embark on a years-long public education campaign about the overhaul” still trying to sell it after it is now law and Pelosi claimed that first, “the bill must be made law before we can see what’s in it.”

Cries from supporters of “just relax, accept it, it’s law now” are tantamount to me of telling a woman in the midst of a violent rape to “just relax and try to enjoy it.”

Ask yourselves, if it is really all that beneficial, why the need to hire 17,000 new IRS agents to “ENFORCE IT?”

As more voters wake-up to how elected officials just voted to “rape” the citizenry, will it be enough of them to vote these usurpers of our constitution out this November?

Or will you just continue to keep your head down and keep trying to convince yourself that this rape of the American taxpayer actually feels good?

"This Ain't No Tea Party"

From Accuracy In Media, reported on Fox News

"On March 20, there was an anti-war demonstration in Lafayette Square Park, across the street from the White House. AIM went there to see what sort of activity was occurring, and as we show in this video, which was all shot at the scene of the demonstration, it was a mix of 9/11 Truthers, Code Pinkers, socialists, anarchists, and a large contingency of pro-Hamas, anti-Israel zealots."

Foreign Debt Holdings Exceed Domestic Debt Holdings

Veronique de Rugy, a senior research fellow at the Mercatus Center, relying on Department of Treasury’s Financial Statement of the United States data has constructed a chart showing how Foreign holdings of our debt have outpaced Domestic holdings.

Rugy says, "While the ownership of our debt may be theoretically neutral, there is a case to be made that this debt reliance gives significant bargaining power to individual foreign governments."



You don't have to be an economist to recognize how this could place our nation under the control of foreign influence in lieu of our own constitution.

Wasn't the housing bubble burst due to too many owing more than they could pay?

With foreign debt growing, could we be seeing the American economy bubble due for it's own bursting?

We have got to stop spending as we have been and get our fiscal house in order, beginning with reclaiming our debt from foreign nations, many of whom are really that friendly towards us.

Happy Easter From The President

The most under-appreciated President in modern time, belittled, demonized and slandered stood tall on his last Easter in office and delivered the folowing message to the nation.

Happy Easter Message from President George W. Bush, 2008:
"I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies." John 11:25

Laura and I send greetings to all those celebrating the joyful holiday of Easter. The Resurrection of Jesus Christ reminds people around the world of the presence of a faithful God who offers a love more powerful than death. Easter commemorates our Savior's triumph over sin, and we take joy in spending this special time with family and friends and reflecting on the many blessings that fill our lives. During this season of renewal, let us come together and give thanks to the Almighty who made us in His image and redeemed us in His love.

On this glorious day, we remember our brave men and women in uniform who are separated from their families by great distances. We pray for their safety and strength, and we honor those who gave their lives to advance peace and secure liberty across the globe.

Happy Easter. May God bless you, and may God bless our great Nation.
GEORGE W. BUSH."




Happy Easter everyone. Pray for our nation.

To our Jewish friends, Happy Passover. Mo`adim lesimha
