Uncanny. More Twilight Zone theme song. It's worse than the infiltration of the Catholic church. It seems as though the vast majority of reporters are also members of the "gay" mafia.

I thought it was just a conservative lobbying group. What is the Christian connection here?

Since the aids was first diagnosed, the infiltration of gays into the media to push the gay agenda has been full bore.

What is interesting about these Yahoo searches when these names come up, is how many of the ACLU types and other key directors of so called non profits write opeds pushing the Gay agendas.

Why the left strikes out at Christians?

It must stem from some deep seated guilt coated over with denial that cause accusers to lash out at Christianity. We
must remember they walk in darkness and follow the wrong leader. Ms. Buchman cannot see that one can love the sinner but hate the sin. We walk in light, sir, and perhaps that is what they see and do not understand.
Proverbs 6:16-19 describes so well where we find outselves today, but again, 1Peter 4:14-19 is our remedy. God bless.

Yup, non-profits with AIDS "awareness" promotion, educational outreach, and journalism. All gay, all the time. Like a recipe for a witches' brew - toad toes, pond scum, lizard legs, etc.

I have listened to the voice mail message. It is inexcusable. But FOF is overplaying their hand when they allege that Buchman's rant was against Christians.

This was in response to the email she received from LaptopLobbyist.com, and she didn't indicate that the "people" that "should burn in hell" were Christians per se -- just the people who want to stop the trend toward "gay rights." I would concede that's what she meant if there was evidence. But there is not. None at all.

In addition to that, I found an audio link to an August 2004 report Buchman did about Ocean City, NJ -- a resort town founded by Methodist ministers -- on the WHYY website. The report is entitled "Christianity Down the Shore."

Based on the title of the FOF piece, one might think they know what to expect from Buchman's story. Well, one would be wrong. Buchman told of the city's origins as a religious retreat and its evolution into its current state in an informative, respectful manner. Maybe a touch of sarcasm? Nope. Buchman played it right down the middle.

This is eerily reminiscent of the attempt to smear Dr. Laura Schlessinger -- then a practicing Orthodox Jew -- as an "anti-Christian bigot" because she agreed with a caller's objection to specific references to Jesus Christ in PTA meetings'group prayers.

Making an inference that Ms. Buchman's disgusting display of intolerance was based in a hateful bias against Christians is unwarranted. Focus on the Family should know better than to puff this up to worse than it was.

In the 90's, basically every front page of our local fish wrap had some big story with a lot of photos of Aids Walks, quilting parties and other do nothing/look good activities of the various non profits you mentioned.

Our church and a few people at the local hospital raised about $20K to donate to the group of international plastic surgeons who flew to third world countries to do plastic surgery for those living there. The hospital bought the equipment and charge us only their cost.

The local editor at that time refused to have the photographer (who was a church member and would have donated his time/expense) and a reporter at a meeting with the check and the equipment bought for this group.

We got some heavy hitters from the Hospital board and fund raisers to put pressure on the editor. He gave in. The pictures were taken and a good story was done. However, the story and pictures ended up on in the middle of section C. That day front page pictures of someone designing a Rainbow sticker were shown with a huge story.

A friend at the hospital kept track and all in the Rainbow picture died of Aids in a couple of years. A lot of that equipment we donated is still being used by the traveling plastic surgeons.

That equipment has been used in surgeries of thousands of children around the world don't have cleft palates and other birth defects after the surgiers. Burn victims have returned to a functional life. People, who were shunned by their villages returned after the ugliness was removed in surgery.

This was a big wake up call to me of the infiltration of the gay agenda pushers into our media and even local media.

Very good example of how AIDS is a special disease, getting far more than its share of publicity, handwringing, and money. Everyone who has gotten AIDS with the exception of health care workers and recipients of blood transfusion has it because of their own behavior. A more preventable disease hardly exists.

There are a few other innocents like wives whose husbands cheated on them and so forth. And I don't want to minimize the horrible suffering that people have with AIDS. But the cause of offering free surgery to poverty stricken people and children around the world is far more important that AIDS quilt stuff.

Shades of Russia, circa 1905. Where are the Putin haters now?
In Russia, this would be a crime and the offender would be in court.

"We want people to know that this is not an isolated incident," he said. "People have to realize there's not just a media bias, but in many cases there is a media hatred, toward anything conservative, Christian or traditional."

This is it.

I'm wondering what your thoughts are about this vermin, Joanie.
