Hillary: State Dept. Instrumental in Sealing Deal For Lady Gagas Gay Pride Gig Monday, June 27, 2011 By Penny Starr
(CNSNews.com) - Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said on Monday that the State Department played an instrumental role in sealing the deal for pop-rock star Lady Gaga to perform at a gay pride rally in Rome, Italy.
Clinton specifically pointed to a letter that David Thorne, the U.S. ambassador to Italy, sent to Lady Gaga urging her to participate in the event.
And then there is the work that our embassy team in Rome has been doing, Clinton said. Two weeks ago they played an instrumental role in bringing Lady Gaga to Italy for a Euro Pride concert.
Now as many of you know Lady Gaga is Italian American and a strong supporter of LGBT rights, said Clinton. And the organizers of the Euro Pride event desperately wanted her to perform and a letter to her from Ambassador Thorne was instrumental in sealing the deal.
Mrs. Clinton made the remarks at the State Department at a celebration of LGBT Pride Month co-hosted by the department and Gays and Lesbians in Foreign Affairs Agencies (GLIFAA), a group that, according to its website, represents lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) personnel and their families in the U.S. Department of State, U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), Foreign Commercial Service, Foreign Agricultural Service, and other foreign affairs agencies and offices in the U.S. Government.

These dumazzes REALLY don't have a clue do they?
Good Lord, help us! World stability is going down the crapper, and the US State Department is worried about getting Lady Gaga to perform at a gay pride event in Rome.
When will I wake up and find this has all just been a terrible nightmare? I never in a million years dreamed any society could be as stupid as the country I’m living in right now, which voted in the stupidest and worst administration ever. Unbelievable.
Let’s see, Hillary Clinton is reportedly thinking to bump Barack Obama out of contention as the Democrat presidential candidate in 2012? Rotsa ruck you lezzie-lover, America will spit both of you out of its mouth.
The children are in charge in Washington.
is that the job our federal governmenr supposed to be doing?? Securing bids for “musicians”?? Doesn’t this so-called Lady have an agent??
And why is the state dept involved in this?? Let alone any branch of gov’t!?!
There are clearly no bounds anymore to both the insanity and the depravity of America as it now stands.
that Lady Gaga is the HOMELIEST thing to ever crawl across a stage.
Can’t be any accident they want it in Rome, and not in, say, Naples. Taunting the globe’s single largest Christian denomination couldn’t have anything to do with this, can it?
Yet they won’t help michael savage in the uk.
The list, ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Now if hitlery REALLY wanted to toot her horn she should have arranged for “lady” gagme to perform at a queer pride concert in mecca or medina.
They don’t have the magnanimity that this would require.
Amen, brother!
Hillary is an example of American exceptionalism.
Only in America’s political scene could a tired old hack of a leftist lesbian decide how to deal with our image abroad. Lady Gaga indeed. Gag us with a fork!

So this is what our government does with our tax money. People who think there is no "gay agenda" or it doesn't affect them - not so.
That's it in a nutshell.
I looked for the “semi-news, semi-satire” tag, but sadly, it is not there.
