EDMOND, Okla. -- A University of Central Oklahoma student group is planning what it calls "Straight Pride Week" on campus.

Members of the College Republicans said despite objections from some, they have every right to celebrate.

"The general gist is that if you are a straight student on campus be proud, be loud, this is your time to shine," said college Republican Kyle Houts.

The group has posted fliers on campus that read, "we're here, we're conservative, we're out."

Members of the Gay Alliance for Tolerance and Equality say they consider the College Republican's celebration an attack on gay and lesbian students.

Wal-mart. We have a winter storm advisory for the weekend, although there's nothing but cold (upper 30's) going on so far.

Ah! (slipping on my Carnac hat) I see large pots of minestrone being made. It is rainy and dreary here. I have to haul in more firewood. D is in Arkansas and they are colder than we are. I have been praying there is no ice on the bridges since he is hauling a 40 trailer with 2 giant McCormick tractors on it.

Wow, best wishes to D! You read my mind ... we're making minestrone in the crockpot tomorrow, as soon as we finish eating up the Alarming Election Chili left from yesterday :-).

According to the DU this is just a cover for a "white" pride week. Their paranoia and imagination know no bounds.

Finally, some common sense - - - - - if the ACLU will keep their mouths shut and stay out of the kids' business.

I love my crockpot. I make the best chicken noodle soup in it.

Check out this site for recipes: http://www.recipezaar.com/

I went with D the other day to drop off a big Kubota tractor and pick up an ancient one in Seneca. I now completely understand why he is so tired and dirty when he gets home. He eats like a horse now, too. I always cook enough for your brood, so I have a lot fewer leftovers now!

said GATE member Jennifer Rodriguez. "I think they definitely are being discriminatory because there's probably a lot of gay Republicans out there."

??????????
I suppose there are a few straight DemocRATS out there, too.
So they must be discriminatory?
I really do believe that liberals have a screw loose, if you'll pardon the expression. After all, I wouldn't want to be accused of being discriminatory against screws.

snip...So any city that has a "Gay Pride" parade is "attacking" heterosexuals?


What they won't admit to is that in their minds heterosexuals deserve to be attacked. After all, if it weren't for the existence of heterosexuality, "gays" wouldn't feel 'different, excluded, hurt, etc". It's all our fault, therefore we should be made to suffer.

All attempts to assuage their deep-seated guilt. Regardless of the cause or the depth of their homosexual desires and/or beliefs, I honestly think homosexuals know deep inside that its wrong. Many of their bizarre behaviors are simply projection and other manifestations of that guilt.

(This concludes todays amateur psychologist minute. Thanks for watching.)

Hehe funny stuff. I'm sure the overly sensitive libs will be up in arms that a majority group would have the audacity to have a sense of humor and celebrate anything.

If gays can celebrate their sexuality in public why on earth can't straights?
