Analyzing and refuting the inaccuracies lodged against the lgbt community by religious conservative organizations. Lies in the name of God are still lies.
Not an lgbt issue per se, but still an important one.
So now the Republican party is not only encouraging the rudeness of tea party protestors, they are actually emulating them on the floor of Congress.

The following video is courtesy of Youth Revolution, which calls itself:
The Voice of a Christian Generation

Apparently this video comes from their efforts. It's a VERY INTERESTING take on how evil the government is by using the same old talking points of how it unfairly taxes people and steals their money.

Of course he doesn't because he has his web address plastered at the end of the video.
Maybe or maybe not, but to quote actor Will Smith in Men in Black:
