No Love for Adams

During his first day back to work, Sam Adams was confronted by small group of protesters asking him to resign.

They even have a website called notwithsam.com. No rest for the wary, right?

An Evening With Labelle


My partner is so wonderful. He got me a ticket to see the best girl group ever, Labelle. Made up of Nona Hendrix, Sarah Dash, and Patti Labelle, these divas rocked the house.


I was very lucky to have a seat in the 10th row center to these ladies in their glory. It was awesome! All of them are in their 60s and they still look and sound perfect.

I never thought I would ever see them live and back together. I encourage all of y'all to listen to a few of their songs. You know Lady Marmalade, but they have done many other great songs. Goddess, what a night!

I See London, I See France, I Will See Who Voted for Prop 8


Poor 'Yes on Prop 8' supporters. They just lost the ability to hide their names from the donors' list. After complaining they were being harassed for donating towards oppression, they wanted to basically change the law.

But the courts wasn't hearing it, saying that we have the right to see who donates to what cause.

The U.S. Supreme Court upheld campaign disclosure laws in 1976 but ruled in 1982 that the Socialist Workers Party in Ohio could shield its donors' names because of a history of attacks and reprisals.

Protect Marriage argued that it was entitled to the same exemption because of retaliation against some of its contributors, but lawyers for the state said the two cases weren't comparable. They noted that the Prop. 8 campaign raised nearly $30 million from 36,000 donors.

If the Prop. 8 campaign was exempted from disclosure because of reports of harassments of individual donors, said Deputy Attorney General Zackery Morazzini, the same case could be made for any controversial initiative. Courts would have to "keep the entire California electorate in the dark as to who was funding these ballot measures," he said.

So folks, the moral or the story is: you can oppress, but you can't hide.

Chip Saltsman Quits the Race, but he's still a F**ktard!


The best move ever. Chip Saltsman is withdrawing from the RNC chairmanship race. After all of his mess and racist songs, somebody told this idiot that his actions are killing the GOP.

Here is his letter

Since November’s election, I’ve had the remarkable opportunity to travel throughout thirty two states, share my vision for the future of our party, and listen to the advice of the nearly one hundred members who took the time to visit with me in their homes, their offices, their airports, and their coffee shops.

I’ve seen how the Clark County Republicans of Nevada are organizing online to defeat Harry Reid in 2010, as we defeated Tom Daschle in 2002.

I’ve heard how Republicans in the District of Columbia have expanded their membership simply by holding their meetings and spreading their message in communities that have long shared our values, but which have never felt welcome within our ranks.

I’ve witnessed how the hard work of Republican leadership in my home of Tennessee has given our state its first Republican General Assembly since 1869.

And I’ve met with Republicans in New England’s blue states who are ready to plant our party’s flag and prove that our coalition is broad enough, strong enough to compete everywhere and win anywhere.

But, while my travels make me confident in our party’s future, I wanted you to be first to know that I have decided to withdraw my candidacy to become your next chairman.

Thank you for your passion for our party and for the principles that make it great. I hope that you won’t hesitate to call on me as we rebuild our majority.

Chip

GET OUT!

These Women Represent the reasons why the rest of World Hates Us


These tramps are complaining about how they can't waste money anymore or go out to eat in Rome. Their lives are so lost and in disarray, and while real families are struggling and going through murder-suicides, they complain about being a good girlfriend or wife.

These sad, sad sacks of flesh are a part of DABA girls which stands for Dating A Banker Anonymous. These poor women have come together to discuss how their lives have drastically changed due to the economy.

Here's an example of these...women. Dawn Spinner Davis, 26, a beauty writer, said the downward-trending graphs began to make sense when the man she married on Nov. 1, a 28-year-old private wealth manager, stopped playing golf, once his passion. “One of his best friends told me that my job is now to keep him calm and keep him from dying at the age of 35,” Ms. Davis said. “It’s not what I signed up for.”

Uh, it IS what you signed up for, tramp. VOWS, remember? You married him, now support him, is that too much to ask?

Then, then these hags have a blog to share their pain, stating foolishness like: “if your monthly Bergdorf’s allowance has been halved and bottle service has all but disappeared from your life.”

These women should be showered in shit! Are they that unaware to see that they have it good? Do they see what's happening? Do they care? I'm really upset about this mess. How dare they shed tears, thinking they are suffering. They are not losing their homes, health care, or civil rights. It's women like them are a disgrace. This is not what women fought for in the past.

Just thinking about this is wrong. I encourage y'all to check out their blog, see this malarkey and post a comment. They should really get over themselves.

Mike Jones...We should reach out to him


Mike Jones is known as the man who exposed Ted Haggard. He's also known as an escort who probably used this opportunity to make money. But do we really know the truth? Do we care to know? We should, because we are doing him a disservice by casting him out to suffer.

I was attracted to this story from a fellow blogger and bud, NG who talked about Mike Jones in his great blog. Later, I started reading more about him and then Queerty presented this article today. He went through a lot, after the Haggard Affair and instead of reaching out to him, he was shunned.

Most gay people said he was a media whore and wanted so much power. But I can't believe he would purposely put himself through that to gain Gay Superpowers. Funny, most of the hateful commitments were about his 'escort' past, but really, most of these same guys would fall over some twink, straight hot male or porn star(usually they are one in the same) in a hot minute.

I think we should reach out to Mike Jones. What he did was good for us, that church, and Ted Haggard, even Ted would agree. Mike should be welcomed in our community. Hell, who are we to judge him? I'm sure some of us have been down that road of sexual/self-hate/religious madness. We need to bring him in and help him. Mike needs us. We can't let him do this alone.

You WON'T Have Mail


What is this? The Postal Service is thinking about stopping mail on Saturday and maybe on the weekdays too!

Postmaster General John E. Potter said the economic fallout is causing a declining volume and revenue. Here's more:

In fiscal 2008, total mail volume fell by more than 9 billion pieces - 4.5% -compared to the previous year, Potter said. And the agency suffered a greater-than-expected net loss of $2.8 billion last year, he added.

"The real problem is that the Postal Service needs reform," said Michael A. Crew, professor of regulatory economics at Rutgers University, whose 2009 book "Handbook of Postal Reform" argues for USPS privatization.

"The Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act of 2006 was supposed to make the agency competitive and bring regulations into the 21st century," Crew added. "But it just painted over the cracks, and they're still struggling."

USPS is "a vital economic engine in our national economy," Potter said, noting that USPS is the country's second-largest employer and the mail affects both jobs and commerce.

"We could experience a net loss of $6 billion or more this fiscal year," Potter told the subcommittee. That shortfall would exceed the Postal Service's credit limit under current law.

"We believe that legislative relief is necessary to preserve the nation's mail system," Potter said.

Wow...What else is coming down the line
