House Committee Holds She-Male Hearing: Why? Unreported in most of the media last week was the first congressional hearing ever held on alleged "transgender discrimination" in the workplace. This hearing was to offset the overwhelming opposition that arose last year from fellow democrats who forced the removal from the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) of language for special rights for she-males, drag queens, cross dressers, and those having sex changes with operations or hormones. This hearing was a charade attempting to show how normal these lifestyles are.

Presidential candidate Sen. Barach Obama (D-Il) has just hired David Noble to head his Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) voter outreach program. Noble formerly worked as director of National Stonewall Democrats and currently serves as director of public policy and government affairs with the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force (NGLTF). ... "The National Gay and Lesbian Task Force is a dark force in the homosexualization of our culture," said TVC Executive Director Andrea Lafferty. "In fact, several years ago it was announced that it was partnering with the Woodhull Freedom Foundation to work to overturn state age-off consent laws...

Religious Right Power Brokers The Top Ten by Rob BostonThe United States is home to dozens of Religious Right groups. Many have small budgets and focus on state and local issues; the most powerful organizations conduct nationwide operations, command multi-million-dollar bank accounts and attract millions of followers. They have disproportionate clout in the halls of Congress, the White House and the courts, and they wield enormous influence within the political system.What follows is a list of the nation’s Top Ten Religious Right groups, as determined by publicly available financial data and political prominence.

Where’s The Outrage Over The Beating Of David Parker’s Son? By Rev. Louis P. Sheldon Chairman, Traditional Values Coalition The mainstream media has ignored a major news story out of Massachusetts involving a first grader who was dragged and beaten on the playground at Estabrook Elementary School in Lexington. His crime? He is the son of David Parker, a concerned parent who objects to his son being taught about homosexuality. School officials have admitted that the attack on his son was planned and premeditated! In April, 2005, Parker met with the Estabrook principal and the director of education over the...

TVC ASKS PATAKI TO STOP HARASSMENT June 21, 2006 - Washington, DC – The Traditional Values Coalition asked New York Governor George Pataki to rein in a state agency which is threatening legal action against an Accord, New York skating rink because it plays Christian music during a “Christian Music Skate” party.

In 1936, a Spanish Nationalist General was poised outside of Madrid waiting with four columns of troops to take back the city from Communist (Republican) forces. When General Emilio Mola Vidal was asked which of the four columns would seize the city, he replied, "The Fifth." When asked to explain what he meant, he told his subordinates that the Fifth Column was a group of his loyalists inside of Madrid who would help him subvert and overthrow the Communists who held control. In viewing America's worldwide war on terrorism and our efforts to protect our homeland from another 9-11 attack,...

GEORGE SOROS’ INFILTRATION OF CPAC STATEMENT FOR THE CONGRESSIONAL RECORD CONGRESSMAN MARK E. SOUDER (IN-03) FEBRUARY 8, 2006 Mr. Speaker, George Soros, the radical liberal financier who dedicated himself to defeating President George W. Bush in the last election, has taken a lesson from Jack Abramoff. As much of Abramoff’s pernicious lobbying technique has come to light, we’ve seen how he was adept at manipulating certain conservative organizations to pursue a decidedly anti-conservative agenda, namely the promotion of gambling. By working hand in hand with the Traditional Values Coalition (TVC), for example, he was able in 2000 to undermine conservatives’...

NEW YORK -- A martini-sipping wife, a pot-peddling daughter, a gay son mourning his twin's death, an aging mother battling Alzheimer's disease--and his own habit of popping painkillers and literally seeing Jesus. Daniel Webster, a beleaguered Episcopal priest, clearly has issues. And the American Family Association definitely has issues with him. The Tupelo, Miss.-based Christian family advocacy group unleashed an e-mail protest blitz, mobilizing its 3 million members effectively to try to defrock the fictional Webster and get his new "anti-Christian" television series, "The Book of Daniel," excommunicated from the NBC schedule.

Senator Kennedy’s Speech Against Judge Alito The Last Gasp Of An Embarrassing Legislator For Immediate Release January 19, 2006 Contact: Amy Skeen (202) 547-8570 “Senator Ted Kennedy’s anti-Judge Alito speech today before the Center for American Progress is yet another display of how out of touch Kennedy is with American values and beliefs,” said TVC Executive Director Andrea Lafferty today. “Apparently Kennedy isn’t satisfied with his bullying and character assassination of Judge Alito during the Senate hearings. He seems determined to keep on mischaracterizing Alito’s record up until the moment the judge is confirmed in the Senate—and he will be...

While the nation's attention was focused on the Judge John Roberts confirmation hearing, pro-homosexual forces in the U.S. House of Representatives snuck through a pro-homosexual hate crimes bill by adding it to legislation designed to protect children from sexual predators. ...Pro-family groups had no prior notice that this was happening. ...We are urging you to contact your two U.S. Senators and ask that they oppose the inclusion of any hate crime language to this legislation.

Of Liberals, Toads, And Growing Up In Middle America By Rev. Louis P. Sheldon Chairman, Traditional Values Coalition August 23, 2005 Washington, DC – Liberal special interest groups and their sock puppets in the U.S. Senate are looking more and more foolish with each passing day as they scramble to find any piece of paper written by Judge John Roberts that will destroy his chances of confirmation to the U.S. Supreme Court. One of the first salvos launched against Judge Roberts was from Senator Ted Kennedy (D-MA) who railed against Roberts for a decision he penned against a court ruling...

Washington, DC – Traditional Values Coalition Executive Director Andrea Lafferty complained today that an article in the Washington Post about the clothes worn by Supreme Court nominee John Roberts’ children was “unfair and disappointing.” Mrs. Lafferty said in a letter sent to Post Editor Leonard Downie, Jr. that the Post has now set a new pecking order for “unfair journalism which ignores substance and slides right into chortling about form.” “If you can’t come up with something disgusting about the actual nominee or his wife then rough-up the kids some and see what happens,” Mrs. Lafferty said today. Post fashion...

WASHINGTON — Since July 1, when Justice Sandra Day O'Connor announced her retirement, social conservatives have fretted that President Bush might name a moderate to fill her seat — a betrayal, they warned, of Bush's campaign promises and their unwavering support for his reelection. But those jitters turned to jubilation Tuesday night as leading conservatives praised appellate court Judge John G. Roberts Jr. as an ideological soul mate. "There's no question that President Bush is a promise keeper," said Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, which is marshaling support among evangelicals for Bush's judicial nominees. The Rev. Louis...

Three major cable providers are buying into the launch of two new homosexual cable networks that will air homosexual programming around the clock for the first time in U.S. television history. In April, Comcast and Cox Communications agreed to offer the homosexual network "Here," put out by Regent Entertainment through their video-on-demand offerings. Viacom will offer its own advertiser-supported homosexual network, "LOGO," as a basic cable channel starting on June 30.

The Sundance Channel, in cooperation with LOGO, a homosexual-themed cable network created by VIACOM is airing an eight-part series on so-called sex change operations in September, 2005.

Each of them undergoes a so-called sex change operation. According to male-to-female transgender Denise Leclair, executive director of the International Foundation for Gender Education, he/she hopes this show “breaks down some barriers for the transgender community…. There is a lack of visible role models, and the transition is...

Pro-family groups across the nation accused a federal judge in Nebraska of judicial activism after he became the first in the U.S. to strike down a state amendment barring same-sex marriage or civil unions, nullifying a Nebraska measure passed by 70 percent of voters in 2000. "This is a blatant display of judicial arrogance where a non-elected federal judge has shown a total disregard for what 70 percent of Nebraska voters stated, marriage is between one man and one woman," said Tony Perkins, President of Family Research Council. "This unfortunate act of judicial activism makes it very clear that marriage...

THE DESTRUCTION OF MARRIAGE PRECEDES THE DEATH OF A CULTURE Sociologists and anthropologists who have studied the death of civilizations have found that rampant sexual immorality, feminism, and homosexuality have been factors in destroying nations. by Rev. Louis P. Sheldon Chairman, Traditional Values Coalition In his 1979 book, Our Dance Has Turned to Death, Christian sociologist Carl W. Wilson outlined the dangers facing traditional marriage and the family in America's increasingly sexualized culture. Wilson could clearly see what was going to happen to the American family if our society continued to be sex saturated. Wilson noted that history reveals that...

The liberal war against President Bush’s judicial nominees continues—and the battle is heating up among Senate Republican leaders to bring an end to the filibustering of good judges. Two of these fine judges are Texas Supreme Court Justice Priscilla Owen and California Supreme Court Justice Janice Rogers Brown. Both of their nominations have been blocked for years by left-leaning Senators. In Rev. Sheldon’s recent commentary on the liberal efforts to keep decent judges from receiving a full vote in the Senate, he noted: “The screeching leftist special interest groups like People for the American Way have worked hand in glove...

MUCH TIME MAY PASS before we fully understand the political ramifications of the Terri Schiavo case. For now, though, it seems that Republicans are taking a fearful beating. Opinion polls consistently show that a large majority of Americans disapproved of the effort--bipartisan, to be sure, but led by Republicans--to keep Mrs. Schiavo alive. To add insult to injury, most poll respondents hold the seemingly-inconsistent belief that the Republicans are not sincere, but are trying to capitalize on the Schiavo tragedy for political advantage. One reason for this perception may be the "GOP talking points memo" that was allegedly distributed on...

Christian evangelicals, a key component in President Bush's Republican Party, believe the case of brain-damaged Florida woman Terri Schiavo may help inject new life into their long campaign against abortion. "The right-to-life issue has been with us for over 30 years but never has it dominated the news headlines day after day as it is doing now," said Louis Sheldon, chairman of the Traditional Values Coalition. "This case has generated a kind of inspirational activism. It is giving revival and renewal to millions of people who feel strongly about the culture of life and the protection of life," he said....

On March 15, Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) and his liberal associates held a press conference and vowed to shut down the federal government if necessary to maintain the Democrat’s filibuster tactic against President Bush’s judicial nominees. According to Reid, Democrats will stop all Senate activities except essential operations and national defense. Senator Tom Coburn (R-OK) responded to Reid’s press conference: “Senator Reid’s threat may inspire the Michael Moore wing of his party, but it will anger and confuse mainstream Americans.” Sean Rushton, executive director of the Committee for Justice noted that Reid’s media event was “kabuki theater for...

Charismatic Pastor 'Would be a Clarion Voice' in U.S. Senate A prominent charismatic pastor is considering a run for U.S. Senate in 2006. Bishop Keith Butler, pastor of one of Detroit's largest churches, Word of Faith International Christian Center, has announced that he was launching an exploratory committee to see if he could drum up enough support for a campaign. A longtime Republican, Butler, 49, said at the center of his platform would be the protection of marriage, religious liberty and national security. Butler, who won a seat on Detroit's city council in 1989 and served a four-year term, said...

TORONTO (CP) - The hit feature Shrek 2 joins the ranks of animated films to be "outed" by some Christian fundamentalists in the U.S., who charge that cross-dressing and transgender themes have made their way into the beloved kids' movie and warn parents to beware. Although many people see the Oscar-nominated film as a humorous story about a green ogre and his true love, the Traditional Values Coalition has a different take on the animated feature. "Shrek 2 is billed as harmless entertainment but contains subtle sexual messages," the coalition says on its website of the movie, a popular DVD...

(Still, One Group Concerned by Dembe's Comparison with KKK, Nazis) The Philadelphia judge who on Thursday dismissed "hate crime" charges against a group of Christians is being praised for her decision. But one pro-family group in that state is a bit miffed by a statement the judge made in explaining the rationale behind the ruling. Calling the charges against the group of Christian demonstrators "ludicrous" and an "abuse of power," family advocates are expressing their pleasure about this week's developments in the "Philly 5" case. Four members of the Philadelphia-based group Repent America who had been arrested in October faced...

Petition drive seeks to limit sex education By JACKIE BURRELL Contra Costa Times WALNUT CREEK - The same man who led the drive to put Gov. Gray Davis' recall on the state ballot in 2003 now has received state approval to circulate petitions for a proposition to severely restrict sex education in public schools. The petition language released Wednesday by Secretary of State Kevin Shelley's office and written by Attorney General Bill Lockyer's staff is straightforward, calling for a ban on sex ed in kindergarten through sixth grade and for daily parental permission slips for older students. But the actual...

Religious Left: Sock Puppets for Atheist George Soros? http://www.traditionalvalues.org/modules.php?sid=2129

A team of researchers funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) have just published a study that claims to have mapped the human genome and discovered chromosomes related to sexual orientation in males. The study, "A genomewide scan of male sexual orientation," was led by homosexual researcher Dr. Dean Hamer and other pro-homosexual associates. Dr. A. Dean Byrd, a member of the National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality (NARTH) Scientific Advisory Committee reviewed the study and concluded: "The researchers' attempt to manipulate the data to come up with something meaningful was not realized. They find nothing and...

Washington, DC –Jonathan Turley, a constitutional scholar at George Washington Law School has just penned what is a clear sign that our nation is not on a slippery slope toward sexual degradation and moral decline—rather our country is on a rocket-propelled missile into social chaos. Turley argued in Monday’s issue of USA Today that polygamy is the next logical step in the goal of social activists to overturn any remaining barriers to the redefining of marriage. Turley says he detests the idea of polygamy but he has put forth the legal arguments for its legalization. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia,...

They say that if you stack the US Tax Code one page upon another, the pile of paper will reach into the heavens. I’m sure that’s true, for two very simple reasons. First, like most laws written in Washington, those seeking special consideration in the code have lobbied for language that addresses their individual concerns, and nearly everyone is seeking special consideration these days. Second, if “we the people” knew exactly what Washington was doing with all of our hard earned money, there would be a lynch mob on the steps of congress before sundown…so keeping the details buried in...

The Centers for Disease Control's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report for October 29, 2004, describes a rare homosexually-transmitted venereal disease that may soon come to the United States. The disease is called Lymphogranuloma Venereum (LGV), a variant of Chlamydia and it is spreading in the Netherlands, Belgium, France and Sweden. The disease rarely occurs in the U.S. or other industrialized nations. The CDC report noted that the Netherlands had only experienced an average of five cases of LGV a year but in 17 months preceding September, 2004, the nation had tracked 92 cases of LGV. Sixty-two of these cases occured...

Country superstar Wynonna Judd is being slammed by fellow Christians for agreeing to perform on a lesbian cruise.

New Films Will Push Pedophilia And Polyamory Publication In Or After Septemberby Rev. Louis P.

The National Faith Based Initiative Coalition is designed to support Republican candidates and conservative ideals.

The Federal Marriage Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was defeated in the Senate this week, but it remains a grand gesture in the most important battle of the ''culture war'' -- the battle to save marriage from being blurred to include homosexuals. The amendment said important things, but it left much undone.

In 1973, The American Psychiatric Association (APA) removed homosexuality as a mental disorder from the APA's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-II). This decision was a significant victory for homosexual activists and they have continued to claim that the APA based their decision on new scientific discoveries that proved that homosexual behavior is normal and should be affirmed in our culture. This is false and part of numerous homosexual urban legends that have infiltrated every aspect of our culture. The removal of homosexuality as a mental disorder has given homosexual activists credibility in the culture, and they have...
