Folks, a pretty busy weekend for “gay rights” activists. Currently, the so-called “National Equality Rally” is under way in Washington, D.C.; yesterday, President Obama, fresh from his Nobel Peace Prize win, addressed a meeting of the Human Rights Campaign, promising, among other things, the repeal of the “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy that forces active homosexual persons to keep their sexual preference a private matter while serving in the military. The ban has been a favorite of presidents and politicians who have never served in the military and are clueless as to its inner social workings, yet are bent to...

President Obama has named to his faith-based advisory council a self-professed Christian who holds that the New Testament's teaching that homosexual behavior is unnatural and wrong--which is found in St. Paul's letter to the Romans--“is not true." The appointee, Harry Knox, has also said that Obama's decision to invite the Rev. Rick Warren to say a prayer at the Inauguration "tainted" the ceremony and that Pope Benedict XVI is a "discredited leader." Harry Knox, a professed gay Christian who is director of the religion and faith program at the Human Rights Campaign, a homosexual rights group, was named to President...

After a hundred days of Barack Hussein Obama's presidency, sadly we are finding out the meaning of Obama's slogan "Change We Can Believe In," followed by the mantra, "Yes. We. Can." We now know the meaning of these slick words. In just three and a half months, we've seen Obama yank our country hard to the left — so far to the left, in fact, that we're fast becoming a socialist nation, along with everything that it implies. Obama's background Obama is the son of an African Marxist intellectual who corresponded with him throughout his college years. He was a...

The shadow Leader of the House of Commons made the comment on Friday's Have I Got News for You, prompting complaints to the BBC, Ofcom and even the police. The openly gay MP, who is married to 40-year-old press officer James Dunseath, was commenting on remarks made by the reigning 21-year-old Miss California Carrie Prejean at the Miss America beauty pageant last week. She was asked whether every US state should legalise gay marriage, and replied: "I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman. "No offence to anybody out there, but that's how I was...

In 1993, Bill Clinton joked, "Gosh, I miss the Cold War." And, he explained, somberly: "We had an intellectually coherent thing. The American people knew what the rules were." Such Cold War nostalgia vexed many conservatives. It seemed to us that the Cold War consensus had broken down with the Vietnam War. Clinton himself didn't much like that Cold War endeavor, which is one reason he worked so assiduously to avoid serving in it. A young John Kerry did serve, but he also threw away his medals and denounced his fellow servicemen as war criminals. Jimmy Carter, meanwhile, had proclaimed...

My favorite headline of the year so far comes from the Daily Mail in Britain: "Government Renames Islamic Terrorism As anti-Islamic Activity' To Woo Muslims." Her Majesty's government is not alone in feeling it's not always helpful to link Islam and the, ah, various unpleasantnesses with suicide bombers and whatnot. Even in his cowboy Crusader heyday, President Bush liked to cool down the crowd with a lot of religion-of-peace stuff. But the British have now decided that kind of mealy-mouthed "respect" is no longer sufficient. So, henceforth, any terrorism perpetrated by persons of an Islamic persuasion will be designated "anti-Islamic...

CARBON ALLOWANCES The British Government is introducing a Climate Change Bill that would make legally binding targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. http://pajamasmedia.com/2007/11/big_brother_in_your_gas_tank_r.php The five-year goals will cost the UK $24 billion a year for the next 42 years, and it will also ensure that future governments are held responsible for this current legislation. The bill doesn't actually give any specifics but says the government will commit to a 60% reduction by 2050. The British government will raise new green taxes and hike up fuel costs. But it is also thinking of allocating "personal carbon allowances." Each person will be...

A proposal to allow Israeli security agents to use "light disguise" while testifying in an American court is under fire from a left-leaning civil liberties organization, the Center for Constitutional Rights. Muhammad Salah, 53, of Bridgeview, Ill., and Abdelhaleem Ashqar, 48, of Alexandria, Va., are scheduled to go on trial in October on charges they funneled money to the terrorist group that won Palestinian Authority elections in January, Hamas. Last month, federal prosecutors asked that the courtroom be closed to the public when Israeli agents are called as witnesses, and to wear glasses or facial hair not part of their...

THE Howard Government says it wants another 600 spies, but it sure won't be hiring people as dumb as you. Reckon I've sold your brains short? Then sit this quick test, Sherlock, which I've drawn up using real cases from the past month. Which two of the following three things are so obviously dangerous that they've just been banned? And which one was this week declared safe for distribution? Exhibit A: Free Bibles placed by Gideons International in the bedside cupboards of public hospitals. Exhibit B: A jokey TV commercial in which Wogs Out of Work's George Kapiniaris complains about...

May 24, 2002 PHOENIX- As summer heat descends on the U.S.-Mexico border, the INS is adding search and rescue teams and new high-tech equipment in an effort to curb the death toll among illegal border crossers. In the past decade, more than 300 illegal migrants have died each year while attempting to cross the 2,000-mile border - most from exposure or drowning. On Thursday, the one-year anniversary of the discovery of 14 illegal immigrants who died of exposure in the vast, barren desert in southwestern Arizona, Immigration and Naturalization Service Commissioner James Ziglar announced that six 30-foot-tall safety beacons have...
