"We must have a foreign policy that is both strong and smart. Yes, the Republicans have been strong, but they haven't been smart. And the policy is one big mess, everyone knows it."

View Article  Obama is not only a bigot, he's an idiot

BigotobamapinkFirst Obama allowed a right-wing evangelist to attack gays at Obama campaign events because he thought he could get the black evangelical vote by throwing gays under the bus.

Indulge their bigotry against gays and they’ll know he’s one of them.

Now, he’s attacking the people who worked to get the civil rights laws passed that guarantee him the freedoms he now enjoys. I was one of those people.

I say to Hell with Barack Obama!

If it hadn’t been for people in the 50’s and 60’s fighting for equal rights for blacks, Barack Obama would be a pissed off gas station attendant whining that he can’t get promoted to manager because all the managers are white.

It saddens me to say that I’m not sure I can vote for Bigot Obama if he gets the Democratic nomination. There’s a reason he’s popular among Republicans and it isn’t pretty.

View Article  Democratic House passes Employment Non-Discrimination Act! as Republicans attempted to throw single Americans under the bus

Democrats in the U. S. House of Representatives passed the Employment Non-Discrimination Act at 6:20PM EST today. Unfortunately, the version which did not include Gender Identity was not the bill that passed, even though it is believed it could have passed.

Senator Ted Kennedy is the primary sponsor in the Senate and it is expected the bill will pass and go to the president’s desk. Unfortunately, we will get to watch George W. Bush veto civil rights for a group he and the rest of the Repugnant Party despise.

House Republicans attempted to throw single Americans under the bus to indulge their bigotry and contempt for gay and lesbian Americans. The Republicans introduced an amendment that would allow employers to discriminate based on marital status to create an end-around in which employers could refuse to hire gays and lesbians because they are ineligible to marry (or at least, single).

Please puff your chest with pride at you look at the Democratic Heroes and Heroines below. Warning: take some anti-nausea medication before reviewing the Democratic bigots.

View Article  Gulfnews: More Bush secret torture memos

Read this and you’ll understand why Judge Michael Mukasey won’t say that waterboarding is illegal torture. If he were to say it is, he might get stuck actually doing his job and have to prosecute Bush administration officials – perhaps even Bush and Cheney themselves. GS

More Bush secret torture memos

By Adel Safty, Special to Gulf News
Published: November 05, 2007, 00:13

In its so-called war on terror, the Bush administration has shown an astonishing disregard for the rule of law in its consistent violation of American and international laws banning torture.

The Bush administration's approach, unprecedented in American history, relied on secrecy and deception - shameful attributes that, along with torture, Bush has harshly criticised in other countries which he described as authoritarian and evil.

Bush had famously dismissed, in May 2005, Amnesty International's accusation of war crimes and torture of detainees in US custody as "absurd".

Recent front-page revelations made by the New York Times show that the Bush administration has in fact relied on two secret memos justifying its torture policy.

The revelations show that the White House ignored critics of its policy and encouraged appointments of cooperative counsels at the Justice Department who could be ...   more »

Currently, I am a Democratic Precinct Chair in Dallas, Texas. In fact, when Senator's Reid, Biden, and Obama came to Dallas and spoke at Lee Park, they were in my precinct.
 
I am a lifelong Democrat (well, except for a few years in high school when my cousin Bo Callaway ran for governor against Lester "Ax Handle" Maddox).
 
Here's my problem: I have been a strong and consistent supporter of Majority Leader Reid, Speaker of the House Pelosi, and have explained the failure to stop the war and various other things on the basis that you don't have a filibuster-proof majority in the ...   more »
View Article  Senator Barack Obama, Tarnished Angel

Tarnished angelThe shine is off Senator Barack Obama’s campaign for president. He did it to himself, His damage control was incomplete, and then he dug himself in deeper by compounding the problem with a civil rights speech in South Carolina.

by Geoff Staples

Sometimes the seemingly insignificant tells us more about a candidate than anything else. Such is the case with Senator Barack Obama. Obama organized a series of gospel concerts for black evangelicals in South Carolina. The objective was to bring them into the Obama for President camp.

Donnie McClurkin, a black gospel singer who claims to be cured of his homosexuality through Jesus Christ, headlined the events. (To see Mr McClurkin prance around the stage, you would never guess he had gone back into the closet.)

When challenged about McClurkin by LGBT and civil rights groups, Senator Obama ignored the concerns and not only kept McClurkin on the program, but allowed him to talk to the audience from the stage. Mr. McClurkin, as would be expected, told them that homosexuality is a sin and he had been cured through prayer.

Senator Obama apologized, and hired a gay evangelist to appear at later concerts in the series.

Totally necessary

Senator Obama made a mistake ...   more »
