It is a foolish tautalogy with no actual meaning.It is so sad that we condemn perfectly normal, healthy, sane and stable people for no good reason simply because some small minded person somewhere in the past got it in their head that their particular all powerful, mysterious, magical deity is a bigot too. There is nothing wrong with being gay, straight or bi, my friend.I wish people who think like you could see how you're perceptions and beliefs are no different than those outlandish, ridiculous beliefs of racist people in the south 50 years ago.That is a most cogent observation Cogent Observer. You weren't kidding when you chose the moniker "Cogent Observer". Cogent Observer is correct. We should be celebrating homosexuality, not condemning it. I mean, where would this country be if we didn't have homosexuals in it? Who cares if they canât produce offspring on their own? I for one will not tolerate intolerance!!! America wouldn't be America if it didn't have morally sound behaviors, like homosexuality, to nurture.

Clinton Accuses Obama of Being Too Far Left

Its been the power political machine that's said if you are a party hack and want to advance, attach yourself to Hillary as the sure winner. Take that away and all she's got left to run on is her bitchy personality and her right-wing, pro-corporate record.

Holiday Hotlist: NBC Explores Gift Ideas

First up: the girls.

Symonne gave the Pixel Chix a test run.

For a week, she dressed, fed and played with her virtual friend.

Take good care of the Chix and things do well.

"You get more clothes, you get to go more places," Symonne explained.

But if you ignore her, watch out.

"If you don't pay attention to her, she'll give you attitude," Symonne said. "She'll say, 'Hey! I thought you were my friend,' and disappear."

If you're shopping for a younger crowd, you might want to pick up a Tadpole.

It's a spill-proof, drop-proof cover for the video iPod.

Amazing Minaturized 'SIDECAR' Drives Webb Telescope's Signal

ScienceDaily (Feb. 23, 2008) — Many technologies have become so advanced that they've been miniaturized to take up less space and weigh less.

Mumbai, January 17

While most of his Bollywood associates called him a political turncoat, his newfound colleagues in politics, particularly those from his own party, dismissed him as a political novice. Some even considered him as an intruder straying into their preserved territory to spoil their fun.

The badgered star belatedly got the hints from both sides. Finally, he chose his profession over politics, from which he started to distance himself slowly without making his retreat appear too obvious. IANS

Olbermann Accuses 'Fascist' Bush of Engaging in 'Terrorism'

The idea that even the most cynical and untrustworthy of the politicians in our history, George W. Bush, would use the literal form of terrorism against his own people was dangerous territory. It seemed to tempt fate, to heighten fear. We will not fear any longer. We will not fear the international terrorists, and we will thwart them. We will not fear the recognition of the manipulation of our yearning for safety. We will call it what it is: terrorism. We will not fear identifying the vulgar hypocrites in our government. We will name them. And we will not fear George W. Bush. Nor will we fear because George W. Bush wants us to fear.

Now, as promised, a "Special Comment." A part of what I will say was said here first on January 31.
