Wednesday midday news briefs

"Greet the Press", NYC Pride Event on Black Gays and New Media - The questions posed by this panel are valid. Just where are we in the media?

NC: Anti-bullying bill passes -- awaits Gov. Perdue's signature - This is EXCELLENT news!

Best letter to Obama on gay issues comes from a straight group - People for the American Way comes through again .

Governor Went to Argentina, Not Hiking - Not necessarily an lgbt issue per se but since it is talking about the governor of MY state (Mark Sanford), I want to include it. No one faults the Governor for taking a break but a. he should have told someone about it and b. why is he lying about where he went?


And now . . . crazy woman on Youtube.

The woman on the video below is Linda Harvey. I've talked about her so many times. But to recap, she is a former ad executive who became a Christian and started an organization (Mission America) to combat the so-called gay agenda.

In the eyes of the religious right, that makes her an "expert."

She believes the following about lgbts and children (yeah I know I am repeating this but she has never gone back from this declaration):

When people have views supporting homosexuality, they should not be involved with youth in any way, period. Because they:

will provide inaccurate, misleading information to kids;
may limit a student's opportunity to hear warnings about the behavior;
may advocate or model inappropriate behavior;
may be directly involved in the molestation of kids themselves;
or may be in a position to allow others to do so.

She also believes, according to this video of a speech she gave to Peter LaBarbera's group (Americans for Truth), that there is a conspiracy amongst the "religious left" to push a false dichotomy of Christianity.



And here I thought it was the lgbts who are plotting to do harm.

When Andy Warhol said that in the future, everyone will be famous for at least 15 minutes, it is apparent that he meant crazy folks too.

And Harvey can't take criticism either. She deleted my polite disagreement of her comments from her video as well as disabled the rating
