Bush Seeks to Undermine Gay Anti-Bias Laws

WASHINGTON -- The Bush administration is reportedly in league with the Salvation Army, the nation's largest charitable organization, to make it easier for publicly-funded charities to ignore state and local laws that prohibit discrimination against gay men and lesbians. http://archive.datalounge.com/datalounge/news/record.html?record=15751

as you can see, the libs have been out to get Salvation Army for a while since they have connections to the evil minds of Bush and Rove.

The Salvation Army, an international movement, is an evangelical part of the universal Christian Church. Its message is based on the Bible. Its ministry is motivated by the love of God. Its mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and to meet human needs in His name without discrimination. --Salvation Army mission statement

You can enter the Board of Directors names in the site I used above as I did for the Executive Board. If you find what I did, you'll see about 80% of all contributions went to Republicans.

draw your own conclusions.

Patti Reagan is a slut and is disgusting for suing the Salvation Army. I can't believe they even sought her as a speaker in the first place.

And I may be totally off here, but I thought I heard a few weeks before the election that Sen. Dayton (name-?) D-Minnesota is in the family of Target owners. He is the wacko who cleared out his office about a month before the election and sent everyone home in an attempt to scare voters into thinking a terrorist attack on the Capitol was imminent.

Has he said anything about this Salvation Army thing yet?
