Covering Up for Harry: Our Dishonest News Media
by Thomas Clough
Weirdrepublic.com

Six decades ago, Harry Hay founded a secret organization called the Mattachine Society. Its name was derived from a medieval French term for male dancers who sometimes satirized social customs while dressed only in masks. Harry was a visionary; he sought to organize American homosexuals around the notion that they were an oppressed cultural minority, like black people, who should agitate for homosexual rights. He began in Los Angeles in 1950, at a time when virtually no one identified himself publicly as homosexual and at a time when the American Psychiatric Association defined homosexuality as a mental illness.

In 1948, Harry Hay was middle-aged and living with his wife, Anita Platsky, whom he had married to conceal his homosexuality, and their two adopted daughters, when he was seized by the vision of a secret society for homosexuals. Harry was an ardent Communist, an aspiring actor and a disaffected Catholic. One summer night in ’48 he attended an all-male party in L.A. and ruminated aloud about whether the Progressive Party candidate for president, Henry Wallace, might include a sexual privacy plank in his platform in return for the support of homosexuals. That night, while his wife and daughters slept, Harry scribbled the gay movement’s first political manifesto with its organizing principle that gays were an oppressed minority. Harry’s first chose to call his group Bachelors Anonymous. It took him more than two years to recruit four other male homosexuals. Two of them had been Communist Party members; the third, Dale Jennings, was arrested the following year for soliciting sex from a policeman. The fourth man was Harry’s lover, a Viennese immigrant named Rudi Gernreich, who would later become renowned (notorious?) as the designer of the topless bathing suit for women. Harry’s Mattachine Society hired a lawyer to defend Dale Jennings against the solicitation charge, claiming police entrapment, and won an acquittal.

As the Mattachine Society added chapters across America, it grew wary of Harry’s Communist Party affiliation and forced him out. The communists rejected Harry’s homosexuality after he divorced his wife in the late 1950s. More than two decades later, Harry formed the Radical Faeries, who were given to gay spirituality, mud baths and ecstatic dance rituals.

The New York Times published an obituary of Harry Hay on October 25, 2002 that ran for 35 column inches. This was followed by a glowing article about Harry on October 30th and yet another in the choice Sunday magazine section of the Times on December 29th. The Times couldn’t tell us enough about Harry Hay, the founder of gay liberation, who had died at age 90. These fawning articles pretty much covered Harry’s entire life, including his anti-draft and anti-war activities and his work with Native American activists. The Times even made mention of Harry’s participation in the Communist Party agitation that led to a union strike that closed the Port of San Francisco in 1934. So it’s mighty peculiar that the New York Times, the newspaper of record, the paper all the other papers and all the television networks look to for direction, somehow never got around to mentioning that Harry Hay was an enthusiastic supporter of NAMBLA, The North American Man-Boy Love Association, which advocates the abolition of all age-of-consent laws. Yup, Harry was an advocate of pedophile rights, which he believed was an organic dimension of gay rights.

Harry Hay taunted the parade organizers by marching in their parade wearing a sandwich board emblazoned with the words “NAMBLA Walks With Me.”

In the eighties and nineties, as gay activists began to sanitize their public image, NAMBLA was asked not to make its customary appearance in the Gay Pride parades. This snub outraged Harry Hay and other up-front gays. In 1994, Harry Hay was a signer of the “Spirit of Stonewall” proclamation that argued against banning NAMBLA from the New York “pride” parade. The Spirit of Stonewall (SOS) proclamation read in part: “Stonewall was a spontaneous action of marginal people oppressed by the mainstream – teenaged drag queens, pederasts, transsexuals, hustlers, and others despised by respectable straights and ‘discreet’ homosexuals.

“SOS is an ad hoc committee of lesbian, gay and other individuals and groups formed to bring Stonewall 25 [celebrating the 25th anniversary of the riots] back to the principles of gay liberation. We focus on one of the most glaring departures from those principles: the attempt to exclude [NAMBLA].

“NAMBLA’s record as a responsible gay organization is well known. NAMBLA was spawned by the gay community and has been in every major gay and lesbian march…NAMBLA’s call for the abolition of age of consent is not the issue. NAMBLA is a bona fide participant in the gay and lesbian movement. NAMBLA deserves strong support in its rights of free speech and association and its member’s protection from discrimination and bashing”

This is an amazing document. It clearly states that the “oppressed minority” that Harry Hay sought to “liberate” was well represented by people whose behavior and psychology were a first-class ticket to social marginalization: hustlers, drag queens, the sexually confused, the surgically refurbished, and child molesters, to name a few. It is the primal urge of this jumbled stew of oddballs, later to be dubbed the “gay community” for political purposes, that drives today’s gay agenda: the legitimization of freakish sexual perspectives. In its blunt assertion of the raw gay essence, the Spirit of Stonewall declaration puts the lie to the cosmetically enhanced portraits of gays that appear regularly on the pages of publisher Arthur Sulzberger, Jr.’s New York Times. In its heartfelt plea to protect child molesters “from discrimination and bashing” the Stonewall declaration confirmed mainstream America’s well-founded skepticism of the gay agenda. NAMBLA was welcomed with open arms at all the gay pride events until it became a political liability.

When the Los Angeles Gay Pride Parade excluded NAMBLA, Harry Hay taunted the parade organizers by marching in their parade wearing a sandwich board emblazoned with the words “NAMBLA Walks With Me.” This moment is included by Hay’s biographer, Stuart Timmons, in his The Trouble with Harry Hay: Founder of the Modern Gay Movement. The book includes a photo of Harry sporting his NAMBLA sandwich board. This book was widely quoted in Hay’s numerous obituaries, so the media liberals must have seen this photo, and yet they all concealed it from the American public. That’s called lying by omission.

No mainstream media outlet mentioned the essay Harry Hay wrote for the pederasty magazine GAYME, which is produced by former NAMBLA Bulletin editor Bill Audriette. Only Armistead Maupin mentioned in a passing sentence that Harry Hay had studied “berdachism, the Native American practice of raising ‘third gender’ children as spiritual intermediaries between the sexes.”

For what I can find:

Pelosi has marched or been a part of Gay Pride parades, but NAMBLA was not there under that banner.

Therefore, the reason for the missing photo you request.
You have to prove first that the above all came about and when etc. No facts to support, but for a remark by Pat Buchanan.

All started with Pat B. :

Joe Scarborough: I will tell you this pat, if a chief of staff came to me, if Mark Foley’s chief of staff came to me in 1998 and told me that this was going on I’ll tell ya, I and most decent people, you would’ve gone to the speaker and if he didn’t do anything you would have held a press conference.

Pat Buchanan: Alright, that’s my point apparently ABC knew this a year ago, if the reporters knew this a year ago and they didn’t report it, they don’t care about those kids, they’re waiting to drop it in the fall election. In this case, Hastert’s got a point, if people give a hoot about the kids and they know about it and they wait for a year to dump it, do they really care about these kids? I don’t think so. Let me may make one more point. Ms. Pelosi has marched in gay pride parades with the North American Man Boy Love Association, NAMBLA. Which, who are pedophiles who are trying to get the laws repealed for sex between men and boys. If she’s been marching with pedophiles, is she credible standing up there saying I’m shocked, shocked that some Republican is after 17 year old pages?

Pat Buchanan: yeah will, let me tell you something. Two national figures, Rudy Giuliani, Hillary Rodham Clinton, marched in gay pride parades in New York, in which I believe that NAMBLA floats were moved right along.. and these are child predators who are arguing for getting rid of laws between men and boys they’re marching with that, that will go into…

A statement was made:

Harry Hay and Rep. Nancy Pelosi both marched in same SF Pride parade back in 2001. Link to pipelinenews.com Blog pointing this out:

In a “guilt by association” attack, some fundies are taking Answers.com / Wikipedia entries on the North American Man/Boy Love Association and associating it Harry Hay, and then associating Harry Hay with Democrats like Rep. Pelosi. Here’s the significance of Harry Hay to all this:

http://www.answers.com/topic/north-american-man-boy-love-association

Excerpt: In 1980 a group called the “Lesbian Caucus – Lesbian & Gay Pride March Committee” distributed a hand-out urging women to split from the annual New York City Gay Pride March because the organizing committee had supposedly been dominated by NAMBLA and its supporters. The next year, after some lesbians threatened to picket, the Cornell University gay group Gay PAC (Gay People at Cornell) rescinded its invitation to NAMBLA founder David Thorstad to be the keynote speaker at the annual May Gay Festival. In the following years, gay rights groups attempted to block NAMBLA’s participation in gay pride parades, prompting leading gay rights figure Harry Hay to wear a sign proclaiming “NAMBLA walks with me” as he participated in a 1986 gay pride march in Los Angeles.

Gay rights organizations aren’t affiliated with NAMBLA, and Pat Buchanan knows it.

Pat Buchanan is a Catholic and he makes donations to the church, the donations fund Priest salaries, some catholic priests molest boys, therefore, Pat Buchanan pays Priests to molest boys. So Pat Buchanan is a monster.

Comparison given:

I see no legs here with this story...only Pat knows for sure? He made the statement so ask Pat.
