Welcome to your Friday open thread. This is a special “Friday sucks!” version especially for meatball. The rest of you are invited too, no matter what your opinion of Friday is. Thanks to everyone who braved the roads last night to come to the War on Christmas party. We had a great time and a decent turnout.
The secret gay agenda revealed! The gays want to steal our rainbows (and probably hide the pots o’ gold, too):
Becky Yeh of right-wing American Family News Network’s OneNewsNow, a product of the American Family Association, writes that Morse says “the rainbow is a sign of God’s covenant with man.” Morse told ONN: “Proposition 8 was passed by a great grassroots coalition that included people from all across the religious traditions, and also people of every race and color. We are the real rainbow coalition. The gay lobby does not own the rainbow.”
Please, I urge RWNJs to decorate with rainbows. There’s even more crazy stuff on the Ruth Institute‘s website:
Morse operates a blog on the Ruth Institute’s website, and recently wrote a post asking supporters of same-sex marriage: “Do you really believe that mothers and fathers are interchangeable and that gender is irrelevant to parenting? If gender is really irrelevant, why do self-described “gays” insist on having a male sex partner? Why isn’t a really masculine woman just as acceptable as a male sex partner?”
Why isn’t a really masculine woman just as acceptable as a male sex partner? Ummm….errrrrrr…I’ll let someone else field that question.
WASHINGTON — Sen. Ron Wyden has been diagnosed with prostate cancer and will undergo surgery Monday, his office said Thursday.
The initial diagnosis came during Wyden’s annual physical in November and was confirmed by tests. Spokeswoman Jennifer Hoelzer said the cancer is in it’s earliest stages and doctors told Wyden that his prognosis is good.
Luckily the cancer is in its early stages and prostate cancer is one of the most treatable forms of cancer. Wyden’s office also announced that Wyden would be able to vote this weekend, since the DADT repeal and DREAM Act are coming up for cloture tomorrow with a possible vote on Sunday.
