This post is not for the faint of heart or the faint of mind. Conservatives have been on a losing streak re: AIDS ever since HIV was declared the cause of AIDS (without any scientific evidence whatsoever). If you are unaware of the controversy click on the excerpt link. Then read post #1 to see how the political Left used AIDS--and dupe well-meaning conservatives--to advance their own political agenda worldwide. Then listen to the audiofiles in Post #2 and you'll know what to do!!!

RALEIGH, N.C. -- A month-old company based in Rocky Mount hopes to find success in the very niche market of selling log homes to gays and lesbians. Justin Porter, the founder of Log Homes for Us, said he noticed a market to sell the homes to gays and lesbians while working for a larger company, of which his firm is now a division. At log home exhibitions, "I realized one out of every 10 to 15 couples was gay or lesbian couple," Porter said Friday. "And I realized there was no company catering to that demographic." He guessed -- correctly,...

MY REVIEW of C.A. Tripp's The Intimate World of Abraham Lincoln for THE WEEKLY STANDARD has caught the attention of several bloggers--but Andrew Sullivan seems to have been the most irritated. Indeed, his website contains half a dozen angry references to my essay--and that's not counting the drive-by blast he fired off in a column for the New Republic.Perhaps Sullivan deserves some answer, for he insists THE WEEKLY STANDARD must apologize for my calling Tripp's book a hoax and a fraud--although one would have more confidence in Sullivan's complaints if he gave a stronger sense of having actually read my...

Kenneth Wilk, a homosexual and former leader of the Log Cabin Republicans in Houston, has been arrested in Florida for killing a sheriff who came to serve a search warrant on him at his home. Wilk's boyfriend had been arrested by police in July for transmission of child pornagraphy and for sex with minors. In addition, Wilk was arrested in 2001 for retaliation against a witness in a previous arrest of his boyfriend. He also threatened to kill an undercover policeman in an online chat room. In his AOL profile, Wilk described himself as an "exposer of Florida Police Undercover...

Note: I swear I am not making the following incident up. Ludicrous though it may sound, it actually happened.After a year at the University of Miami, I thought I'd seen everything. I had no idea. About a week or two ago, we at the College Republicans got together with the Young Democrats and the Council for Democracy to poll UM students for a "mock election" (which we miraculously won, but only because we got out the vote like crazy). It's a fun little exercise in democracy (gag me). At one point, a clearly homosexual young man stepped up to the...

WASHINGTON - A pro-gay Republican group plans to file a lawsuit asking a federal court to overturn the U.S. government's "don't ask, don't tell" policy covering gays in the military. Log Cabin Republican leaders said the suit would be filed Tuesday in federal district court in Los Angeles. The "don't ask, don't tell" policy, put into place in 1993 during the Clinton administration, allows gays and lesbians to serve so long as they do not disclose their sexual orientation and do not engage in homosexual acts. Log Cabin members serving in the military asked the group's leaders over the last...

(CNSNews.com) - Given President Bush's poor showing in the homosexual community, it was surprising to find a "W Ketchup" advertisement running on the home page of WashingtonBlade.com Friday morning. "You don't support Democrats," the ad copy said. "Why should your ketchup?" The "ad by Google" urged readers to "Choose W Ketchup." W Ketchup says a portion of every sale is donated to the Freedom Alliance Scholarship Fund, a nonprofit educational and charitable foundation founded in 1990 by Lt. Col. Oliver L. North, who now serves as the organization's honorary chairman. The Fund provides scholarships for the children of active duty...

The board of the Log Cabin Republicans, the largest group for gay men and lesbians in the party, has voted overwhelmingly against endorsing President George Bush for re-election because of his support for a proposed constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage. The decision ends six months of soul-searching as the group, which endorsed Mr Bush in 2000 and Bob Dole in 1996, has wrestled with its divided loyalties. Although the group was immediately critical when the President announced his support for the amendment in February, it refrained from ruling out an endorsement. Its effort to balance loyalty to the party with...

THE LOG CABIN Republicans, an organization for gay and lesbian members of the GOP, announced Tuesday it would not endorse George W. Bush for re-election, even though the group endorsed Bush in 2000. This reversal largely reflects the president's support for a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage. As Log Cabin Republicans Political Director Christopher Barron said in a statement issued from its Washington headquarters, "An organization's endorsement is worthless if it does not have to be earned." In 2000, Bush worked for it. He met with gay Republicans and proclaimed himself "a better man for it." Bush was also a...

What is it about the nation that we’ve become so hyphenated? We’re African-American, Asian-American, Jewish-American and now the newly famous Gay-American. What used to be wonderful about the Republican Party is that it resisted the urge to over-hyphenate itself into little special interest groups that got together every four years simply to oppose candidates; rather it closed ranks to actually stand for something.

A high-profile Republican Senator is accusing a homosexual Republican group of jeopardizing the party's re-election chances. The Log Cabin Republicans (LCR) recently began running a series of advertisements critical of President Bush's support of a constitutional amendment banning homosexual marriage. The Republican homosexual rights group has already been lobbying to discourage support for the amendment among Republican officeholders, and on March 10 LCR launched an ambitious national campaign to stop the passage of what it calls "an anti-family Constitutional amendment." While the LCR claim they are working for a better Republican Party and a better country, Kansas senator Sam Brownback...

I've always assumed that President Bush is surrounded by political advisers of the first order. With a campaign chest in excess of $140 million, he can afford the most skilled. But just this once, they may have failed him. For deep-dyed Republicans, the log cabin has always been a near-sacred symbol, reminding us as it does of their party's first president, the immortal Abraham Lincoln. Not all Republicans could have been happy, years ago, when gay and lesbian members – as statistically plentiful within GOP ranks as at any other level of humankind – formed their own unit within the...

<p>Several weeks ago, Assembly and Senate Republican political strategists put out a call to GOP groups asking them to recruit candidates for legislative districts where the party needed to show the flag.</p> <p>It turns out the flag they're showing is rainbow-colored.</p>

But Mark Mead, spokesman for the homosexual Republican group Log Cabin Republicans, believes that GOP opposition to homosexual marriage could harm the party's chances of keeping the White House. "The past is a really good predictor of the future. When we ran a culture war campaign led by Pat Buchanan in 1992, we lost, and we handed the White House to Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton for eight years," Mead told CNSNews.com. "So if we run on a culture war campaign, I predict that's what will happen again," Mead said. Log Cabin Republicans are "pleased with the ruling" in Massachusetts...

Traier running for freeholder, and history Wednesday, July 9, 2003 By KIBRET MARKOS HERALD NEWS John Traier says he is "not the trailblazer type." Running for Passaic County freeholder for the first time this year, the GOP chairman in Clifton says his only agenda is to make county government more accountable and financially responsible, do away with patronage jobs, and stop property tax increases. Although his platform may not sound pioneering, Traier, 46, is blazing at least one trail: He is the first openly gay political candidate in Passaic County. "I have always been out. I have always been honest...

The leader of the nation's most well-known homosexual Republican organization says his group is consulted on nearly a weekly basis by the White House. "(O)ur access is unprecedented," Log Cabin Club executive director Patrick Guerriero told Metro Weekly, a Washington-area homosexual magazine. "I'm not sure there's been a week that I've been on the job where we haven't been called to the White House or asked to attend a meeting with the Republican leadership to discuss issues ranging from tax fairness to judicial nominations to global and domestic AIDS policy." The article was e-mailed yesterday between the leaders of many...

Even though people on both sides of the issue deny it, it is increasingly obvious that homosexuality is dominating a new place on the scale of American political life. Even in conservative circles, prominent voices – some of whom I call friends, all of whom I respect – continually find themselves divided on not only the issue, but also how people of conscience respond to it. In recent weeks, David Horowitz, president of the Center for the Study of Popular Culture, and Robert Knight of Concerned Women for America, have been "duking it out" on the issue of whether or...

State GOP Chair to Attend Gay Republican DinnerState GOP Chairwoman Carole Jean Jordan is scheduled to eat dinner tonight with the gay Broward Log Cabin Club, wading into the debate on how much influence gays and lesbians should have in the Republican Party. "It's a big step for her to come to our dinner," said Andy Eddy, spokesman for the club. The Broward County branch of the national Log Cabin Republicans was the first chapter approved by the state party four years ago. A Tampa chapter was approved later. "At first it was a shock to the party, but it...

To: Friends and Supporters of the Campaign for Working Families From: Gary L. Bauer, Chairman Date: Monday, May 12, 2003 Bush And The USS Abraham Lincoln Before this flap is over, Senator Robert Byrd (D-WV) will probably rue the day he ever tried to turn President Bush's aircraft carrier visit into a partisan issue. Reporters have rushed to the history books and are finding that U.S. presidents all the way back to President Tyler in 1844 have visited U.S. warships. Teddy Roosevelt visited at least six ships as president and F.D.R. spent copious amounts of time on 12 different vessels....

Just call it 'Foreign AIDS' Posted: February 3, 2003 1:00 a.m. Eastern © 2003 WorldNetDaily.com It was like ripping a zipper open on a big wallet. Your wallet. And there's a big hand, grabbing handfuls of money. You heard it during the State of the Union address but you probably didn't notice. The speech by President Bush was masterful. He first addressed domestic issues, emphasizing fiscal problems. Then he drew a line in the sand for Iraq, outlining the dangers and risks, including the fiscal impact. Mr. Bush's strength in presenting the latter was enough, at first, to blur the...
