The chief of President Obama's Education Department Office of Safe Schools, homosexual activist Kevin Jennings, is being credited for helping sponsor a Harvard University display honoring the work of the radical homosexual organization Act Up.
WND reported just days ago when Mass Resistance, a pro-family organization in Massachusetts that has battled over homosexual agenda points there, reported that Jennings was a part of that organization, known for its aggressive badgering of those who don't support the homosexual lifestyle.
A YouTube video revealed Jeff Davis, Jennings' "partner," addressing a banquet and saying of Jennings, "He was a member of Act Up. Act Up! So it's like – you know – here's a big gay activist. BIG gay activist!."
The video was pulled down shortly after the WND report appeared.

Ping.
Hope someone put it on their harddrive before it vanished.
I’m sure Joseph is smart enough to do that on a regular basis as any of us should do. Beck has been preaching this since he began his expose’ on Van Jones.
Bammy sure has some “interesting” friends.
Welcome to Cirque du Zer0, where the freak show never ends!
It is a freak show. That is a perfect description. And the most if the people I know (who are not in the freak minority mind you) seem unconcerned about it. Scary.
of the people that is, most of the people. sorry sleepy.
Just to add a couple points about Act-UP.
-According to one report I read about the infamous storming of the cathedral in 1989, at least some of the condoms they were throwing about had been filled with white paint.
-Act-UP also held several protests outside the White House when H.W. Bush was President. They wore and passed out grotesque “head shot” masks depicting the President as having been shot in the forehead.
-IIRC, the President of Act-UP around those days (I don’t remember his name, I just remember hearing him on Larry King Live one night), publicly said he wished President Bush and his family would get infected with the AIDS virus.
Nice people, huh? /sarc
Bingo!
Barry repeatedly said: “’Judge me by the people who surround me.”
Epic fail, on varying levels. =.=
Later pingout.
“In December 1989, approximately 4,500 protestors arrived at St. Patrick’s Cathedral during Mass in a demonstration directed toward the Roman Catholic Archdiocese’s public stand against AIDS education and condom distribution, as well as its opposition to abortion.[12] One-hundred and eleven protesters were arrested. Camille Paglia wrote in a December 2008 Salon column that a consecrated Host was desecrated by a protester, an act considered by Catholics to be blasphemous and an outrage.[3] Robert Hilferty’s documentary about the protest, Stop the Church, was originally scheduled to air on PBS. The film was eventually dropped from national broadcast by PBS, but still aired on public television stations in several major cities including Los Angeles, New York and San Francisco.”

He opposed every bill considered on the city and state level which would have guaranteed civil rights to gay persons including legislation (backed by Mayor Rudolph Giuliani) which granted gay men and women the right not to be discriminated against in housing, public accommodations, employment, and rent-related affairs, and Mayor Ed Koch's executive order requiring all social service agencies, including those run by the Church, to provide equal services to gays. (John Cardinal O'Connor and the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York brought suit against the City of New York which resulted in the overturning Koch's order.) The Cardinal based his opposition on his claim that it would make the Church appear to be condoning homosexual practices and lifestyle.
He prohibited a pro-homosexual group from meeting in New York parishes, and supported efforts by the Ancient Order of Hibernians to prevent groups representing gay Irish people from marching as such in New York's St. Patrick's Day parade. However, he did celebrate Mass with Father John Harvey's Courage, a ministry to homosexual men and women who seek to live by the Church's teachings on human sexuality.”

I go to the St Patrick’s day every year and remember the - act up - stuff that went on... They were up front and in your face and had no respect for anyone.
