The American Family Association does NOT support the Troops!

Our men and women in the armed forces are doing a difficult job under very trying circumstances. So you’d think that most people would want to do what they could to support the troops. You wouldn’t think that there would be people out there actively trying to take away things that boost our troops' morale.

But you’d be wrong.

Donald Wildmon from the American Family Association thinks that our service men and women, who risk their lives on a daily basis, who face roadside bombs, insurgent attacks, and other assorted hazards, shouldn’t be allowed to see nudie pictures. The wingnuts at the AFA are upset that military exchanges are selling “se-ually-explicit [sic] publications . . . such as Celebrity Skin, Pl-yb-y's [sic] College Girls, and Playmates In Bed”.

Most of us can remember what it was like to be a young adult, with our hormones running at full throttle. So if our soldiers want to look at nudie magazines, most normal people wouldn’t have a problem with that. But for the prudes at AFA, safeguarding their own delicate sensibilities from the knowledge that other people are looking at porn is more important than letting our soldiers make up their own minds about what they want to look at.


The douchebags at the AFA are supporting a piece of nonsense called the Military Honor and Decency Act, that would remove magazines like "Playboy" from the military exchanges.

If you really care about our soldiers, you'll contact your congressman or Senator to express your opposition to this ridiculous bill.

Here we go! Game 6 is up. Let's go Pens!


Wow, that was a wild ride for Game 5. Here's hoping that the Pens can get out to an early lead, and make the older Redwings have to skate that much harder to get back in the game.

Last Gasp for the Pens


Wow, the Pens are down 3 games to 1, after the Redwings skated a smothering Game 4 on Saturday night in Pittsburgh. The Pens need to find a way to solve the Detroit PK unit. They couldn't convert the 5-on-3 on Saturday, they absolutely need to do that tonight.

OK, here we go . . . Let's Go Pens!!

ID is real because . . . it’s in a videogame

The IDiots at “ID The Future” are actually trying to argue for ID because it fits with the plotline of a videogame.

Seriously.

Good ol’ Casey Luskin, IDiot extraordinaire, interviews an artist for the Nintento DS videogame Spore, and concludes that “Spore’s game-play actually hinges on intelligent design theory, because success depends entirely on the ability of the player — i.e. intelligent agent — to fashion a creature ready to take on the growing challenges of its environment.”

So if it’s in a video game, it must be real. Great. Good to see they finally have some positive evidence for ID

Eek! A gay man is trying to sell me a Big Mac!

Donald Wildmon from the American Family Association is always good for a laugh. In his latest "Action Alert", Donald seems really concerned that a McDonald's corporate officer is, you know, one of them kinda people:
In addition, [McDonald's Vice President Jack] Daly told AFA that Richard Ellis, vice president of communications for McDonald’s, is a "gay man"
NO!! A "gay man" in an actual corporate job? What's the world coming to?

I know I'm not the first one to notice this, but it sure seems like a disproportionate number of these virulent fundy homophobes turn out to be closet cases themselves.

So Donald, anything you'd like to share with us?

Edward Current says people's beliefs should be respected.

I find it really hard to argue with Edward's reasoning
