Here is a comical review of Elaine Donnelly's comments against repealing Don't Ask, Don't Tell. Sure is something to watch someone like her try to keep a specific group of people from having the choice to serve in the military. Land of the free indeed.
Enjoy!
A House of Representatives panel holds a hearing on the absurd policy of Don't Ask, Don't Tell. They bring in some twat named Elaine Donnelly who respects gay veterans AND is on a crusade to keep gays out of the military. Rep. Vic Snyder (D-Ark.) says it best, labeling her statement "just bonkers" and "dumb."
Let's take a quick look at Al Sharpton. On the one hand, he's mindful about playing into stereotypes and taking appropriate action. On the other hand, he makes a stupid remark about Anderson Cooper's place in the afterlife while defending Cooper's right to get there.
So, can someone tell me just what the Reverend Al Sharpton is about? Didn't he just play into stereotypes? Don't know about you, but I'm fairly sure I can figure out the answer to these questions.
Multiple tornado warnings for Milwaukee in one weekend. Who would've thought. To say that strong storms hit southeastern Wisconsin would be an oversimplification..JPG)
Tell that to water-logged New Berlin. Our basement was among the lucky ones because some of our neighbors had more water than we did. And we could barely keep up, sucking up water non-stop Saturday night from 5:30pm to 9:30pm once we got the sump pump to drain to the side of the house instead of to the overflowing culvert. We had several inches in spots while our neighbors had enough to go past the first step in their stairwell.
Anyway, I can just hear the crackpots now: This is God's punishment for PrideFest!
Well one thing is certain: I don't remember the weather ever being like this for a PrideFest weekend. Never thought I'd see the day where rain would keep me away. And this year, we had the added bonus of having two groups protest the festival: nazis and gay bashers.
So here's my take on this weekend's weather: this is karma's way of washing out those god-damned protesters..
All I care about is that everyone who evacuated the festival made it safely to their destinations.
Over the past several years some rights and freedoms of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender Americans have been taken away in most of the country. The government has greatly expanded its powers in the name of national security and terrorism. Yes, I know: the people of this country still have a lot of freedom. Who cares if rights are being taken away from a few people which don't fit the norm?
Right.
So I laugh that the president begs (dictates? demands?) the Arab leaders to produce more oil and bring the price down, and then gives them a speech on freedom."There is much to do, " he said. "The future is in your hands -- and freedom and peace are within your grasp."
Crazy talk if you ask me. I laugh at the hypocrisy.
