A Lifelong ‘Tea-Party’ Hypocrisy: State Senator Roy Ashburn (R-CA) Owns Up To His Homosexuality

Tags: , , , , , , , , , ,


Like a typical GOP politician, congressman lived a “full and married” life as a closeted homosexual, constantly deriding and beating on fellow gays legislatively …..until he was caught — arrested for a DUI after leaving the gay nightclub FACES, in Sacramento, CA. When the police stopped the state-issued vehicle, there was an unidentified man (lover) in the passenger seat of the car.

LOL!

Yesterday, he came out — a freshly minted “Gay American,” like the former New Jersey governor, James McGreevey, who announced his resignation in 2004, revealing that he is gay and that he had an adulterous affair with a man.

The difference between the two cases, is that McGreevey never bashed fellow gays, unlike many of his Republican counterparts — several of whom have been caught; one, a Sen. Larry E. Craig (R-Idaho) in a Minnesota TOILET.

Asked when did he know he was gay, and if he had come out to his family, Senator Roy Ashburn said “That’s my private life and that’s personal,” “I don’t think it’s relevant to how I do my job,” “my personal life is my personal life, I’ve already said that I’m gay.” “The facts are what they are. I acknowledge what I DID and I’ll pay the consequences for that.”

Yes, once again, another “holier-than-thou,” “sexual pervert,” — a member of the “GOD people,” the “Moral Majority,” has fallen flat on his “moral ass.”

If you are gay, you are gay ….no ifs or buts. Just be who you are and roll with the punches! There is really nothing to be ashamed of — because shame will not change your orientation. You are stuck with it, and the demeaning opinions held by some — especially the “Religious Hypocrites.

Lastly, a man not true to himself, cannot be true to anybody else — his constituents, “wife,” friends and sundry.

I can imagine how “ghastly” the cheated wife feels right now.

A Few Gay Men & Women: Republican Bigot-Senators and FLIP-FLOP McCain Against Overturning ‘Don’t Ask Don’t Tell’

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , ,


Notes: Don’t ask, don’t tell (DADT) is the common term for the policy allowing openly gay, lesbian, and bisexual individuals to serve in the United States military, in contravention to federal law Pub.L. 103-160 (10 U.S.C. § 654). Unless one of the exceptions from 10 U.S.C. § 654(b) applies, the policy prohibits anyone who “demonstrate(s) a propensity or intent to engage in homosexual acts” from serving in the armed forces of the United States, because “it would create an unacceptable risk to the high standards of morale, good order and discipline, and unit cohesion that are the essence of military capability.

The act prohibits any homosexual or bisexual person from disclosing his or her sexual orientation or from speaking about any homosexual relationships, including marriages or other familial attributes, while serving in the United States armed forces. The “don’t ask” part of the policy indicates that superiors should not initiate investigation of a service member’s orientation in the absence of disallowed behaviors, though credible and articulable evidence of homosexual behavior may cause an investigation.

Violations of this aspect through persecutions and harassment of suspected servicemen and women resulted in the policy’s current formulation as don’t ask, don’t tell, don’t pursue, don’t harass. [ READ MORE ]

Death For Gay Ugandans!: Debunking an ‘Ex-Homosexual’ Therapist’s ‘Cure’ For Homosexuality

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,


What I find most disconcerting about this charade is that Africans are once again being duped by “colonialists” — this time by homophobic neo-colonialists, still holding the same book (the Bible), a book they used several decades ago to bamboozle, trample on and de-humanize Africans. Under colonial Europe, Africans received only limited education, which would allow them to read the Bible and take orders efficiently from the Europeans. A good chunk of the problems in Africa today can be linked directly to the Europeans — who divided Africa amongst themselves like a loaf of bread, resulting in todays conflicts — by exploiting Africa’s resources and then leaving behind political structure that were geared toward tyranny and exploitation. It is high time Africans decolonized their minds and stopped relying on neo-colonial Republican bigots and racists to solve their social problems.

Thieving Richard Cohen, a “former homosexual“, claims he can cure “Gayness” by cuddling with “Active Homosexuals.LOL! Only a Republican can come up with such an incredulous scheme to defraud vulnerable homosexuals — who are hounded and murdered all over the world because of their sexual orientation.

Richard Cohen, the “ex-homosexual” therapist is head of the “International Healing Foundation,” which purportedly helps gay people become straight. Cohen’s rancid slander against gay people (they’re a threat to children, etc.), masquerading as “research,” is being used by advocates (Evangelical Republicans) of a proposed law in Uganda that would allow the state to execute homosexuals, reports Glenn Greenwald.

Republicans have invaded Museveni’s Uganda to help him kill his own people. I call this “Homophobic Neo-colonialism.” The teachings of homosexual “healer” Richard Cohen (of the International Healing Foundation‘) and evangelical Republicans has inspired Uganda’s hateful new legislation — “Kill All The Gays

Deviant Senator DeMint Wishes He Was The One Who Had Said ‘YOU LIE!’; GOP Senators Vote To Protect Rapists; Republicans Sponsor Uganda’s Anti-Homosexuality Bill

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,


After seeing Rep. Joe Wilson raise more than $1 million in the days following his “You lie!” outburst during President Obama’s September address to Congress, Sen. Jim DeMint, a fellow South Carolina Republican, said he wished he’d been the one who lashed out. Though Wilson apologized for the comment, he was pilloried by the left and lionized by Republican activists in the so-called Tea Party movement.

Equal Benefits For American Gay Diplomats

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , ,


“Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton will soon announce that gay American diplomats will be given benefits similar to those that their heterosexual counterparts enjoy, U.S. officials said Saturday.

In a notice to be sent soon to State Department employees, Clinton says regulations that denied same-sex couples and their families the same rights and privileges that straight diplomats enjoyed are ‘unfair and must end,’ as they harm U.S. diplomacy.

‘Providing training, medical care and other benefits to domestic partners promote the cohesiveness, safety and effectiveness of our posts abroad,’ she says in the message, a copy of which was obtained by The Associated Press.” The Associated Press/Matthew Lee

The Obama administration has a lot on its plate: Two interminable wars and an economy on the verge of collapse. Perhaps it’s understandable that gay rights wasn’t the first item on Obama’s agenda, however it’s now high time that the president address the issue of the discrimination that gays suffer on a daily basis.

It’s a shame and a disgrace that Obama shares the same Neanderthal approach to same-sex marriage as Miss California Carrie Prejean. Gay rights advocates should stop cutting Obama so much slack, and demand that he come out if favor of gay marriage.

Obama should move quickly and repeal the discriminatory “Don’t Ask Don’t Tell” policy that has resulted in the dismissal from the armed forces of thousands of gifted, intelligent and patriotic gays and lesbians.

But I commend the Obama administration for extending to gay diplomats the same benefits enjoyed by heterosexual couples.

This change in policy sends a clear message to the world that America believes in equal rights for everyone, including the dedicated diplomats who serve our country abroad.
