Governor Cuomo; Priority #1, Legalize Homosexual marriage across America  

 

Calls opponents Anti-American

 

Instead of focusing like a laser beam on the real priorities in New York; taxes and jobs, Andrew Cuomo has announced his plan to spearhead homosexual marriage across America by forcing all states to recognize same sex marriage.  Speaking before the extremist group, Empire Pride Agenda, the Governor bluntly stated, "We need marriage equality in every state in this nation, otherwise no state really has marriage equality, and we will not rest until it is a reality".

 

Taking a page out of the Elliot Spitzer playbook, the Governor went on the attack against those who would dare disagree with his view of marriage. According to the Governor, "There is no answer from the opposition. There really isn’t. Ultimately, it’s, ‘I want to discriminate.’ And that’s anti-New York. It’s anti-American.” Ed Mechmann of the Archdiocese of New York’s Family Life Office reacted to the Governors comments by expressing his concern of being labeled "enemies of the state". Jason McGuire of New Yorkers for Constitutional Freedoms demanded an apology from the Governor for his comments.

Senate Democrats push to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act

 

Tomorrow the Senate Judiciary Committee will vote on the "Respect for [homosexual] Marriage Act" which will send the legislation to the Senate floor for a possible vote. The bill would repeal the federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) signed into law by former President Bill Clinton. President Obama has announced his support to repeal DOMA which is consistent with his refusal to enforce the current law.

NY Senator Gillibrand; Legalize gay, transgender adoption

 

New York Senator Gillibrand has introduced a bill to force any entity in all fifty states to recognize, encourage and promote the adoption of children by homosexuals, transgender variant and by those who are unmarried. The bill is specifically targeted against religious institutions that handle adoptions and would deny federal funds to any entity that believes otherwise.

Long Island Group; Schools must Teach "Gay history"

 

In an attempt to couch their agenda under preventing student bullying, the Long Island GLBT Services Network has announced plans to form a "Gay PTA" which will promote "gay history" and "sensitivity training" in Long Island schools. The group needs to give some answers; What is "gay history? What is "sensitivity training? Why form a separatist single issue group? Do parents and their children have a right of conscious to publically disagree with their agenda without being bullied? The group met tonight in Garden City. NY PTA questions homosexual based group

 

To be fair and balanced, understanding history is important, the question is which history? Take for example the founder of the Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network (GLSEN) which is behind the Gay-Straight Clubs in several Long Island high schools. It's founder, Kevin Jennings was caught on audio tape discussing his effort to encourage a 15 year old boy to  continue a sexual relationship with an "older man" he met in a "bus station bathroom". Mr. Jennings claimed that he was "inspired" by Henry Hay who strongly advocated pedophilia and promoted the North American Man-Boy Love Association (NAMBLA). His organization, GLESEN sponsored an AIDS prevention workshop where state employees discussed graphic homosexual sexual practices with children as young as twelve and thirteen year olds. GLESEN has also encouraged the use of books that reference explicit sex acts with children as young as preschoolers.

 

Ironically, Mr. Jennings heads the Obama Administration's Office of School Safety. In a letter to the President, fifty three House members demanded that he be fired. Click here for the story.

Rainbow Sex Education Returns

 

NYC kids to learn about bestiality and sadomasochistic role play.

 

Back in the early 1990's, NYC Schools Chancellor Joseph Fernandez advocated his "rainbow curriculum" which discussed graphic sexual practices with children as young as eleven years old. He was ultimately forced out over the controversy. In an effort to "educate" children about "safe sex", the current Chancellor Denise Walcott is reintroducing the graphic curriculum. Is it any wonder why our institutions are crumbling?

Voters in NY 9 say, Marriage matters!

With the loss of the Weiner seat, the Governor's claim that voting for homosexual marriage would be a political asset rang hollow. "What I've said is I believe the legislators who voted for marriage equality, this is actually going to be an asset to them in their campaign; I believe that…And I told them I'm willing to stand up and say that." Governor Andrew Cuomo.

63% of Americans support marriage as the union of one man and one woman.

The scientific survey, sponsored by the Alliance Defense Fund and completed by Public Opinion Strategies May 16-19, was part of a comprehensive examination of American attitudes toward marriage. In addition to the national survey, the research included 14 focus groups completed across the country.

... “These numbers are not surprising,” said Public Opinion Strategies partner, and the survey’s director, Gene Ulm. “More than 63 million Americans in 31 state elections have voted on constitutional marriage amendments. Forty million Americans in all—63 percent of total voters--have voted to affirm marriage as a union between a man and a woman.”

“Americans strongly affirm the lifelong, faithful union of a man and a woman as the fundamental building block of civilization,” said Raum. “This survey, along with the nearly 80 percent win rate in ADF marriage cases, shows the opposition has created an illusion of momentum but not a real base of support or track record of victory in the courts.”

Joint Chiefs oppose repeal of Don't ask, don't tell

Earlier this year, the Pentagon agreed to conduct a study on the repeal of the military's don't ask, don't tell policy which bans open homosexuality. The review which is due to be completed by December was prompted by pressure from homosexual rights activists and President Obama who has promised to repeal the Clinton era policy. Under the current military code of justice, homosexuality is deemed incompatible with military service and is grounds for discharge. During the Clinton administration, President Clinton pushed to allow open homosexuality in the military which resulted in a compromise policy which allows homosexuals to serve as long as they keep their sexuality discreet and which bars the military from asking about one's sexual preference. Due to shifting political winds and a possible loss of one or both houses of Congress, Democratic leaders are trying to force a repeal bill through which would allow open homosexuality as long as the President, the Defense Secretary and the  Chairman of the Joint Chief's of Staff certify that the change will not affect military readiness and unit cohesiveness.

The Nassau County Civic Association opposes any repeal on two grounds; the change would affect military readiness and unit cohesiveness due to the consequences of the change and second, the current policy is supported by a overwhelming majority of those affected; active service members and veterans.

DC Gay Marriage law forces Catholic Adoption agency to close

The concept of homosexual marriage is radical in of itself but actually enacting a radical change to public policy has radical consequences. Its not about equality nor is it about discrimination, it is about raw power. It is the power to silence those in the public arena and dictate their false concept of morality. The true morality is our inherent right of liberty given by our creator. Our founders recognized that all of our rights flow from the first freedom, the right of religious liberty. This is the freedom that guarantees all of the others. Losing your freedom has consequences.

Story from World Net Daily

'Safe schools' chief recommends child porn for classroom reading

'Sex acts between preschoolers' among subjects of books backed by openly 'gay' Obama adviser

A new report is raising alarms that the Gay, Lesbian, Straight Education Network, a homosexual advocacy organization founded by Kevin Jennings, now head of the U.S. Office of Safe Schools for the Obama administration, is recommending XXX-rated sex writings for children as young as preschoolers.

"We were unprepared for what we encountered. Book after book after book contained stories and anecdotes that weren't merely X-rated and pornographic, but which featured explicit descriptions of sex acts between preschoolers; stories that seemed to promote and recommend child-adult sexual relationships; stories of public masturbation, anal sex in restrooms, affairs between students and teachers, five-year-olds playing sex games, semen flying through the air," said the report.

"One memoir even praised becoming a prostitute as a way to increase one's self-esteem. Above all, the books seemed to have less to do with promoting tolerance than with an unabashed attempt to indoctrinate students into a hyper-sexualized worldview," it advised.

The report was posted online by Jim Hoft at the Gatetway Pundit blog after it was obtained from Breitbart.tv co-founder Scott Baker, who said the recommended children's reading assignments need attention.

The team whose members assembled the report said a handful of books from the more than 100 titles on GLSEN's recommended reading list for school children were picked randomly. Writings were reviewed with titles such as "Queer 13," "Being Different," "The Full Spectrum," "Revolutionary Voices," "Reflections of a Rock Lobster," "Passages of Pride," "Growing Up Gay/Growing Up Lesbian," "The Order of the Poison Oak," "In Your Face," "Mama's Boy, Preacher's Son" and "Love & Sex: Ten Stories of Truth."

"What we discovered shocked us. We were flabbergasted. Rendered speechless," the report said.

"Read the passages … and judge for yourself … The language is explicit, the intent is clear," the report said

Note: Due to the graphic nature and sexual content, the Nassau County Civic Association, Inc. has declined to post excerpts of the books from GLESEN's reading list. The report from Gateway Pundit and the article from World Net Daily do contain the excerpts.

UPDATE: PRESIDENT'S CZAR INSPIRED BY MAN-BOY SEX ACTIVIST  

President Obama's "Safe School Czar" while speaking before a GLESEN conference in NYC back in 1997 made the following statement “one of the people that always inspired me is Harry Hay.” Mr. Hay who was a member of the communist party strongly advocated pedophilia and promoted the North American Man-Boy Love Association (NAMBLA). During a 1983 New York University forum sponsored by a gay campus organization, Mr. Hay stated the following; "I also would like to say at this point that it seems to me that in the gay community the people who should be running interference for NAMBLA are the parents and friends of gays. Because if the parents and friends of gays are truly friends of gays, they would know from their gay kids that the relationship with an older man is precisely what thirteen-, fourteen-, and fifteen-year-old kids need more than anything else in the world. And they would be welcoming this, and welcoming the opportunity for young gay kids to have the kind of experience that they would need." Please contact your congressional representative to request congressional hearings surrounding the appointment of Kevin Jennings, his role at the Department of Education and Secretary Arne Duncan who has voiced support for Mr. Jennings. Do it for the sake of America's children.

President's School Safety Czar Encouraged Man-Boy Sex

Founder and Executive Director of GLESEN (Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network), Kevin Jennings who was appointed as President Obama's "Safe School Czar' was caught on audio tape discussing his effort to encourage a 15 year old boy to  continue a sexual relationship with an "older man" he met in a "bus station bathroom". The audio tape is from Mr. Jennings  appearance before the Iowa Chapter of GLESEN in 2000. GLESEN is a advocacy group that encourages homosexuality in schools. Mr. Jennings who was a teacher at the time not only encouraged the sexual relationship to continue, failed to report it to authorities. GLESEN is no stranger to controversy. In 2000, the group sponsored an AIDS prevention workshop in which state employees discussed graphic homosexual sexual practices with 12 and 13 years olds. The question is simple, when will he be fired? How can an individual be appointed to oversee school safety when he actively promoted a unsafe and predatory sexual relationship of a child??

Controversy over "comprehensive sex education" 

The New York State Senate is considering a comprehensive sex education bill called the Healthy Teens Act (S1342 Winner/A2856 Gottfried). There is nothing healthy about this bill. Currently, New York requires sex education and AIDS education for school age children. This bill is being pushed by Planned Parenthood which has a history of promoting all forms of sexual activity thus comprehensive sex education.  The topic guidelines recommended by SIECUS (the foremost national advocate for comprehensive sex education) include masturbation, sexual intercourse, cohabitation, oral and anal sex and homosexuality. Other forms of "sexual expression" are also included. Perhaps the Senators should research the now infamous Rainbow Curriculum which was exposed in the 1990s for its extremism. A recent effort by the Fonda-Fultonville school district to introduce the Planned Parenthood sex education plan has been heavily criticized by parents due to the age inappropriate subject matter and the effort to keep the subject matter from parents.

The House of Representatives passes bill to "protect" sexual conduct whether actual or perceived.

Today the US House voted to 235-184 to include sexual orientation in federal law banning discrimination in employment. The bill entitled, The Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) include the terms "actual or perceived". The proposed law has no provision to exempt commercial entities run by churches, religious groups or other faith based programs. The backers of the bill fought to include "gender identity", "gender expression" actual or perceived but removed the provision to get the votes to pass this bill. Backers of the bill claim that this is the first step to include all forms of sexual expression and conduct on the sexual continuum. The White has promised to veto the bill as it tramples religious liberty, is overly vague and gives federal recognition to legal benefits granted to homosexual couples under state law.

UPDATE: On Tuesday, February 20th, Merck announced that they will cease their marketing campaign to mandate the use of Gardasil. A NYS Board of Election report filed by Assembly member Amy Paulin discloses a contribution from Merck.

February 12, 2007

The State Over-reaches: An effort is underway in the NY State legislature to draft legislation mandating all school age females be vaccinated with Gardasil. This vaccination which was found to reduce the risk of cervical cancer caused by the sexually transmitted human papillomavirus (HPV) will be required for attendance. Gardasil is manufactured by Merck which began a marketing campaign in twenty states to mandate its use. As this vaccination has nothing to do with preventing the spread of communicable diseases within the school setting, the effort to require its use is an over reach by the state with the assumptive belief that government always knows best versus that of parents. Assembly member, Amy Paulin (D-Scarsdale) vowed to sponsor this legislation in the Assembly. Contact your legislator to ensure that any effort to promote the use of this vaccination be on a voluntary basis.

Call your legislator toll free at 1-800-525-2846.
