Refusing to Bow at the Altar of Homosexuality ............................................................... CNS News ^ \| 6/15/2015 \| J. Mark Brewer I was a law student when I first learned of the consequences of not being politically correct concerning homosexuality. A former Miss America’s contract as the citrus growers’ brand-ambassador was allowed to lapse because she had successfully campaigned for the repeal of a pro-homosexual ordinance in Miami-Dade County. She was quoted as saying, “What these people really want, hidden behind obscure legal phrases, is the legal right to propose to our children that theirs is an acceptable, alternate way of life.” She was publicly humiliated – "pied" on national television – and her name – Anita Bryant – became synonymous with something called "homophobia" and "hate speech." As a new Air Force J.A.G. officer, my first court assignment was to represent the United States in an administrative discharge proceeding concerning a female service member. She was being kicked out of the service for allegedly engaging in homosexual acts. Even as an inexperienced young lawyer, I managed to prove that she had committed the requisite two homosexual acts. She was given a “general” discharge and sent back to the United States. I don’t remember when thereafter I first noticed that there are only two instances in which “sex” occurs in the “ethics” rules for lawyers. Both are in the same, “anti-discrimination” provision: “A lawyer shall not willfully, in connection with an adjudicatory proceeding … manifest, by words or conduct, bias or prejudice based on race, color, national origin, religion, disability, age, sex, or sexual orientation towards any person involved in that proceeding in any capacity...” (Excerpt) Read more at cnsnews.com ...

So THAT'S how she does it! Rachel Dolezal 'gets regular spray tans for $60 a month and wears a weave' ................................................................................... Daily Mail ^ \| 6/16/2015 \| Kelly McLaughlin, Mia De Graaf Rachel Dolezal 'gets regular spray tans for $60 a month' and wears a weave to maintain her black identity Rachel Dolezal's dark skin is the result of regular spray tans, reports claim. The former NAACP director, who is white but pretended to be black, is a regular at Palm Beach Tan in Spokane, Washington, sources told TMZ. According to the source, her preferred brand is Mystic Tan, which offers a 'deeper, longer lasting tan' than many of its competitors. It costs $30 a spray, which wear off in three-to-seven days, or $60 a month for unlimited top-ups. And her shade of choice is 'medium', TMZ reported.

How can they do this to a war hero like Brian Williams? At least he has his new job as the head of the Spokane NAACP to fall back on. All he had to do was show up for work in a little black dress and he’d have his job back. Assuming he could find some fetching pearl earrings. How can they do this to a war hero like Brian Williams?Really - Brian and Hillary were both cool under fire... true heroes...

Did Lethargic Politico Reporter Pull a Dolezal With College Application Lie? NewsBusters ^ \| June 17, 2015 \| P.J. Gladnick Politico has been covering the Rachel Dolezal story as have many other news sources as you can see here, here, and here. Who can blame them? It is a fascinating story about a white person casting herself (soon to be himself?) as a member of another group. However, it turns out that Politico may be able to get the inside scoop on what it is like to fake ethnicity from one of their own. None other than their hilariously infamous lethargic labor reporter, Mike Elk, according to his own declaration, pretended to be an American Indian on his college financial aid application in order to get a better deal. According to his March 2012 tweet, Elk declared that he marked the "Native American box" for college aid. His justification was "everyone lies like Daisy its human." It's (correct grammar) also wrong but, hey, Elk doesn't seem to care since it is Marxist credo that the ends justifies the means. (Excerpt) Read more at newsbusters.org ...

We are all supposed to be equal under the law and our national government should be absolutely color and race blind. The American public should take a stand and just start marking different boxes for whatever they feel like... American-Indian on college apps, Eskimo for financial aid, African-American for mortgages, mark every box for the census.... 5 posted on 6/17/2015, 9:45:54 PM by Tamzee (Man is not free unless government is limited. ~~~ Ronald Reagan) [ Post Reply \| Private Reply \| To 1 \| View Replies \| Report Abuse] To: PJ-Comix There are a lot of Dolezals out there. 6 posted on 6/17/2015, 9:47:24 PM by ozzymandus
