Fair warning: This is a dangerous group. You never know what might result from them getting together. What one doesn’t think of, the others will. A primary operating premise is “they said it can’t be done. Let’s go do it!!”
Yes. Shameless promotion. What can I say? We’re Queer that way.
Check out the QueerNetworks… network!

The Family Research Council has posted another missive of disinformation, full of falsehoods, misdirection, deliberate misstatement of facts, and continued posting of disproven and discredited research. All in the name of God, of course. See the FRC’s page at www.frc.org
From FRC’s Washington Update page:
Before we entrust Secretary Kathleen Sebelius with health care reform, maybe Americans should take a closer look at how her Department spends other taxpayer dollars. Even the Washington Post called Friday’s announcement from Health and Human Services (HHS) an “eye opener,” writing that the President’s “gay outreach continues.” A $1.4 trillion deficit aside, HHS has set aside a quarter million dollars to launch the first-ever National Resource Center for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Elders.

On September 12, 2009, a rally was held in Washington D.C. Tens of thousands of people attended, with the Washington D.C. Fire Department estimating crowds at 60 – 70,000. (The National Park Service, responsible for the Capitol and National Mall grounds, does not provide crowd estimates, nor does the Washington D.C. Police Department) Right wing commentators in the media and on the Visalia Times Delta’s online forums quickly tried to inflate those numbers to ridiculous levels of one to two million. Relentlessly hyped by Fox News well in advance, and endlessly on the day of the event, crowds came from across the United States to protest. Exactly what they were protesting was really never clear, and many of the protesters could not articulate more than vague soundbite slogans heard on television and talk radio. Fox News continually chastised the “Main Stream Media” for not covering the protest march, continually asking why it was not worthy of coverage. That commentary would end up branding Fox News hypocrites of major proportions, and I’ll get to just how in a moment.
