Hey folks,Sorry to break away before. Simply ran out of time. But I have made extra time today, so here I am, back with you.
I was talking to someone the other day, and they asked me why I haven’t commented on "Cut and Run Conservatives" and the whole Michael J Fox thing. The answer is simple. Same reason I have stopped commenting on Foley. Let’s see, is he STILL in the news today? To my surprise, thankfully, no.
WAIT!!!!!!!
From the wire, possibly the next big distraction,
"WASHINGTON, Oct. 27 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Gay activist Mike Rogers will hold a press conference call today, Friday, Oct. 27, at noon Eastern time (9 a.m. Pacific) to challenge a major anti-gay figure in the Republican Party on his own sexuality and ask evangelical leader James Dobson to say why Dobson continues to support him given Dobson's anti-homosexual crusade.
Rogers, the nation's top gay activist blogger, will describe his videotaped ambush interview earlier this week with this top GOP leader. Rogers previewed his comments this morning on the Mancow talk radio show, syndicated to 25 markets."
And,
"Rogers has been a leading voice in the fallout of the Mark Foley scandal. Last week, he reported that Sen. Larry Craig (R-Idaho) has not been honest with Idaho's "values voters" about encounters with at least three men who reported to Rogers having gay sex with Craig. A nationwide discussion ensued, including pieces by the Washington Post, CBS News, USA Today, CNN's "Reliable Sources" and "Real Time with Bill Maher." For 39 hours, "Larry Craig" was the top search term among all 57 million blogs on the Internet.
"I'm sure the mainstream media will again torture itself about whether it should cover questions of sexual orientation," Rogers said today. "At some point, they'll just have to get over the idea that gay people and gay intimacy are dirty or a pejorative. The issue here is not whether someone is gay or not, it's whether they are hypocritically deceiving the voters for political advantage."
If this story is picked up, which it most likely will be, you are getting a preview of the next big distraction. Sorry, but Rogers is nothing more than a political pawn, and it is most definitely about outing Sen. Larry Craig. It is yet another lame attempt at suppressing the Conservative voters. It is amazing to watch Gay activists attempt to use someone’s "possible" sexual orientation against them.
OK, "Cut and Run Conservatives." First, {sorry Rush} Rush Limbaugh did NOT come up with this phrase. It was a caller that called his show. He {Rush} ran with it and now the "Drive By Media," MMD, have credited Rush with that phrase. I haven’t commented on it, simply because I do not believe there are that many stupid people out there. It would be like flying on a plane and saying, "I’m going to teach the Pilot a lesson. I’m removing him from the cockpit and put in his place a three year old. That’ll teach him." Yup, and you will go down to a fiery death with everyone else. If you do not vote, you are voting for the winner. Like I said, I do not believe there are that many stupid people out there.
As far as the whole Michael J Fox thing goes. It is a political ad. It is not factual. Embryonic Stem Cells are NOT going to cure Parkinson’s Disease. As a matter of fact, they have caused brain tumors in the rats they were put in. I do know Parkinson’s VERY well. My Grandfather had it. He did not have the modern advances that are benefitting Mr. Fox today. He has a right to voice his opinion. Even if it is completely misleading and incorrect. This is strictly political. Yet another distraction.
So what are they, the MMD and the LWL distracting you from? ISSUES! You know, what elections should be about. Where does the LWL stand on the War? I touched on this in the first part. HOW will they change it? HOW will they protect this country from future attacks? HOW will they fix the {Laughing} "Horrible economy?" HOW will they make the country better? Why will they raise your taxes? Some average people that enjoy a two to three thousand dollar tax break now, will be paying that much more. ISSUES are what matters, not another distraction. When you continuously claim that someone is wrong and incompetent in all things, you need to offer an alternative. They can not do this. Why? Because they KNOW they will lose.
Forget all the distractions. Watch them, some are very entertaining, and good for a laugh, but remember the ISSUES. What is important to you. Get informed, and get ready. GO VOTE.

so do you believe that gay people should marry or not? No OPINION expressed. Do tell. Rememeber,your OPINION counts........
ok, for the record. You claim to KNOW that stem cell recearch won't work, that would make you a Dr. right? You claim there is no global warming, making you a top envionmental speacialist right? You claim NOT to be a homophobe but here you go posting this crap. You claim to know everything about everything, making you sound just plain stupid. After reading this post and the last I am not very happy with you right now. I suggest you wait a few days for me to calm down before trying to call me.I would hate to yell at you right before you come up. It would be a waste of breath and energy.
Everyone is wrong exept Pete and his leader.Check, got the message.

ps I notice you put a nifty edit thing on the comments. Handy when someone does not agree with you huh?
Welcome Back Bethany,
First off, you are completely WAY off base, and completely wrong with EVERYTHING you attempted to assert here. One at a time.
“ok, for the record. You claim to KNOW that stem cell recearch won't work, that would make you a Dr. right?”
Not a Doctor. One that can READ what Scientists say. Read Scientific EVIDENCE that adult stem cells are showing improvements and great possibilities. But Embryonic stem cells have caused tumors in rats. There is also NO scientific evidence to ANY benefit from Embryonic stem cells and ANYTHING to do with Parkinson Disease.
I said I know all about Parkinson Disease. It really matters to me. I would love it if they came up with a cure for it. Not only am I at a high rise to get it, having grown up with it in my life for years. You cannot possibly tell me I do not know about it.
“You claim there is no global warming, making you a top envionmental speacialist right?”
Nothing to do with this topic. But again, not to get too distracted, I have told you there are as many scientists that say there is NO global warming, and there is that say there is. There is NO scientific evidence proving there is or not. It is a THEORY. One I do not believe in.
“You claim NOT to be a homophobe but here you go posting this crap.”
That has got to be one of the most stupidest statements I have EVER heard you say. I posted WHAT crap? What exactly are you pissed off about? You just said, I offered no opinion on the topic. Yet you NOW accuse me of being a Homophobe? Let’s see, what could have upset you with this? OH, I bet it was this,
“If this story is picked up, which it most likely will be, you are getting a preview of the next big distraction. Sorry, but Rogers is nothing more than a political pawn, and it is most definitely about outing Sen. Larry Craig. It is yet another lame attempt at suppressing the Conservative voters. It is amazing to watch Gay activists attempt to use someone’s "possible" sexual orientation against them.”
You are offended that I pointed out the truth? This is a Gay Activist that is attempting to use someone’s sexual orientation against them right before an election. I find that extremely hypocritical, and nothing more than another lame attempt by those attempting to get into power to suppress votes. It’s really simple. If there is a big turnout, they lose.
If you weren’t in the middle of a rant and misguided fury filled attack on me over this, you should see that this should piss YOU off. It seems to me that to some, if you are Gay it is good, only when it fits their agenda. If you do not fit their agenda, they will attempt to out you, because they know that most Americans are still anti-gay, and will be against you. So they are using the person sexual orientation against them.
Back to your rant,
“You claim to know everything about everything, making you sound just plain stupid.”
I have never claimed to be all knowing. EVERYTHING I say, I back with facts, sources, and tell you where to read it for yourself. To make a baseless claim as to I stating I know everything, actually makes those making that claim sound stupid. My articles speak for themselves. Complete with support and links.
“After reading this post and the last I am not very happy with you right now. I suggest you wait a few days for me to calm down before trying to call me.
You do not have to worry about that. I assure you.
“Everyone is wrong exept Pete and his leader. Check, got the message.
Again an ignorant and misleading statement. Would you care to give an example of when I said this? Your hatred for Bush and anything “not Liberal” has clouded your judgement. You might want to take a breath, back off from the situation for a second, and think about it.
As for answering your question. I will in a bit.
Oh I just caught this, ”ps I notice you put a nifty edit thing on the comments. Handy when someone does not agree with you huh?”
This is a question I was going to answer, seeing I have got it a few times now, in an upcoming “Behind the OPN Screen.” But it is simple. I do not edit anyone’s message. As you can see here. I do not block anyone from posting a message here, with ONE exception. Spam. I got so extremely tired of this one company continuously posting spam disguised as a comment, that I was forced to start to moderate, “approve” the comments. It really is just that simple. I do not reject any INDIVIDUAL’S comments. But unless they want to pay me, noone will be advertising here.
