As I’ve said countless times before, the 2010 election saw a tidal wave of Teabaggers roll into our General Assembly in NC, and with the first GOP supermajority since Reconstruction, they’ve been hard at work since day one rolling back progressive progress in the state. In response to an ACLU challenge to prayer before Rowan County [...]

It was all too predictable. I wish that I could kick the @sses of the “reasonable but disengaged” NC voters — and there are way too many of them — who were too lazy/apathetic to cast a ballot to avoid the calamity we are witnessing now. That and the wreck of a state Dem party. [...]

Fundie Rowan County elected officials are out of control. (Raw Story): The group’s [ACLU] letter sparked a series of angry commentaries by commissioners, including an email by Commissioner Jim Sides who said he would “volunteer to be the first to go to jail for” the cause of official public prayer at government meetings. Subsequent meetings featured [...]

I love the new homophobia. In the vein of Chik-Fil-a, bigoted establishments welcome gay dollars, but want to condemn at the same time. In New Bern, NC on December 4, Ariel and Shawnee McPhail walked into The Stingray Café, sat down and had their meal, and had this handed to them by the restaurant’s owner, [...]

What a stunning lack of originality. The crazee has been unleashed by the likes of Mike Huckabee, but you can always count on some no-name bible-beater who wants to break the sanity meter. (Raw Story): Morris insisted that “humanism” in schools taught Lanza that he was God and “he can just go blow away anybody [...]

WWJD w/a TEC-9? The American Family Association’s Bryan Fischer goes for the American Masculine Gun-Toting Jesus interpretation of the Bible this time. This twisted view of Christ’s teachings really brings it home that you can read just about anything in the Good Book, even though it clearly must require heavy mind-altering meds or lack of sanity [...]

I don’t know how David Pakman manages to get the deranged wing of the professional anti-gays to come onto his show, but it provides a good bit of entertainment. This time he has on Johnathan Phelps of the “God Hates Fags” Westboro Baptist Church and former Navy Chaplain Gordon Klingenschmitt. You might recall that the chaplain [...]

God almighty —  these cretins just keep spewing non-factual garbage because they’ve got nothing left to bring in the dollars to fund their hate-filled “lifestyle.” The latest from David Pakman, who just interviewed the scum-sucking, professional gay-hating, transphobic, womb-controlling Bryan Fischer of the American Family Association.  I’m not even trying to charitable in my assessment of [...]

Well, at least it’s not Pat Robertson (yet). Low-rent author and “chaplain” John McTernan of Defend and Proclaim the Faith has a unique combo to blame for Hurricane Sandy (Gay Star News): [T]he preacher says the gathering storm must be God’s judgment on gays, and punishing the president Barack Obama for coming out in support of marriage [...]

The tide has turned and hate and junk science purveyors like Bryan Fischer of the American Family Association need to be prepared to be tossed off the air (CNN’s Carol Costello had enough of his foolishness the other day). Now Fischer is foaming at the mouth — and TEH HOMO is to blame. If only [...]
