Gays Not Allowed in NYC St. Patrick's Day Parade

The chairman for the very popular St. Patrick's Day Parade here in New York basically told those who want to force immoral activities such as homosexuality down parade-goers throats, where to stick it:

From Yahoo.com:

Protesters joined bagpipers, marching bands and thousands of flag-waving spectators at the St. Patrick's Day parade Friday after the parade's chairman compared gay Irish-American activists to neo-Nazis, the Ku Klux Klan and prostitutes.

As huge, happy crowds lined the streets, the chairman, John Dunleavy, sidestepped questions about his remarks to The Irish Times.

"Today is St. Patrick's Day. We celebrate our faith and heritage, everything else is secondary," he said before the start of the Fifth Avenue parade.

Dunleavy set off a firestorm this week when he told the newspaper: "If an Israeli group wants to march in New York, do you allow Neo-Nazis into their parade? If African Americans are marching in Harlem, do they have to let the Ku Klux Klan into their parade?"

Referring to the Irish Lesbian and Gay Organization, Dunleavy said, "People have rights. If we let the ILGO in, is it the Irish Prostitute Association next?"

Good for Chairman Dunleavy!

Needless to say, the liberal press, gays and gay activists will make Dunleavy out to be a hatemonger for daring to exclude gays from a private & religious group's celebration of Irish heritage, but Dunleavy and the rest of parade's supporters should ignore the all-too-common leftwing lunacy and just keep doing what they're doing. And judging from the parade's continued and immense popularity (a throng of 2 million-plus New Yorkers watched this year's parade of 150,000 marchers) they're doing an excellent job.

What Liberal Media? #2: Jessica Simpson "Disses" GOP

Jessica Simpson Skips Meeting With Bush

Jessica Simpson was a no-show at a major Republican gala where she was scheduled to meet with President Bush.

Blame the snub on plastic surgery.

The blonde star of "The Dukes of Hazzard” had agreed to attend the fund-raiser for the National Republican Congressional Committee in Washington on Wednesday night and was offered some private time with the president.

Simpson is promoting Operation Smile, a non-profit venture offering free plastic surgery to children overseas with facial deformities.

She canceled her planned attendance at the GOP fund-raiser at the last minute because Operation Smile is a nonpartisan group.

"She would love to meet the president and talk about Operation Smile, but she can’t do it at a fund-raiser for the Republican Party,” a source close to the actress told Reuters.

NRCC spokesman Carl Forti said Republicans were surprised at Simpson’s stance.

"It’s never been a problem for Bono,” he said, referring to the U2 rocker who has met regularly with a range of political leaders to lobby for various causes.

"I find it hard to believe she would pass up an opportunity to lobby the president on behalf of Operation Smile.”

Seriously. Why is this even news?

Oh yeah, I forget, a very average and a very bad actress who parlayed "blonde bimbo" and tuna fish into millions rejects President Bush and the GOP for valid reasons and the liberal media wants to paint this like the President got dissed by a real actress with talent like say, Julia Roberts?

Anything to make Bush look bad I guess.

Teresa Heinz Still Needs A Clue

From NYDailyNews.com:

Would-be First Lady Teresa Heinz Kerry wistfully relived her husband's 2004 defeat during a dinner to raise money for pro-choice female candidates. "I am not personally let down. I am let down for the country. I am let down for the world," she told a few dozen dinner guests at the Fifth Ave. penthouse of Democratic fund-raisers Jack Mayberry and Francesca Kress, who hosted the dinner on behalf of the WCF, formerly the Women's Campaign Fund.

"I've been married to a politician since 1971. If you told me that I'd still be doing this at my age, I thought I would be knitting somewhere, eating scones and cream." Later, she confided to a fellow dinnergoer: "I miss those guys, the Secret Service. We're having a party for them in the garden this spring. The cowboys, someone else's cowboys now."

She's "let down for the country"!?!

But apparently not embarrassed by herself and the huge amount of dumb comments she made during her husband's campaign that helped him lose to President Bush in '04. Not that Kerry was going to win anyway, but his wife certainly didn't help the cause.

For Teresa's recollection (and yours) here are a few of her most notables:

- “Clothing is wonderful, but let them go naked for a while . . ." - Heinz's "advice" given at a hurricane relief center for the Caribbean in '04.

- “I don't know Laura Bush. But she seems to be calm, and she has a sparkle in her eye, which is good. But I don't know that she's ever had a real job - I mean, since she's been grown up.” - this insult was made towards 1st Lady, mother, former schoolteacher and former librarian Laura Bush, mere weeks before the election.

- Teresa says “only an idiot” would fail to support her husband’s health care plan.
But Heinz Kerry, the wife of Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry, told the (Lancaster) Intelligencer Journal that “of course, there are idiots.”

- "You said something I didn't say. Now shove it" - Heinz's infamous retort to a reporter who dared to ask her for clarification on a comment she'd just made.

Celebrities Are Stupid #7: Faith Hill and Tim McGraw

Faith Hill, Tim McGraw Blast 'Humiliating' Katrina Cleanup

March 8, 2006 — Faith Hill and Tim McGraw — two stars who usually stay out of politics — blasted the Hurricane Katrina cleanup effort, with Hill calling the slow progress in Louisiana and Mississippi "embarrassing" and "humiliating."

The country music artists — who are natives of the storm-ravaged states — were at times close to tears, and clearly angry when the subject of Katrina came up during a news conference today. They had met with reporters in Nashville to promote their upcoming Soul2Soul II Tour, but when asked about the hurricane cleanup, the stars pulled no punches.

"To me, there's a lot of politics being played and a lot of people trying to put people in bad positions in order to further their agendas," McGraw, a 38-year-old native of Delhi, La., said after ABC News Radio's Dan Gordon asked about Katrina.

"When you have people dying because they're poor and black or poor and white, or because of whatever they are — if that's a number on a political scale — then that is the most wrong thing. That erases everything that's great about our country."

McGraw specifically criticized President Bush. "There's no reason why someone can't go down there who's supposed to be the leader of the free world … and say, 'I'm giving you a job to do and I'm not leaving here until it's done. And you're held accountable, and you're held accountable, and you're held accountable.

"'This is what I've given you to do, and if it's not done by the time I get back on my plane, then you're fired and someone else will be in your place. '"

The comments you can get away with because the media considers you to be a "celebrity" continues to amaze me. I mean, with all that hype, you'd think you were about to read something so profound, yet it just turns out to be nothing but the usual hate-driven, ignorant leftist drivel. And that's perfect for the naive, ignorant and of course, all the Bush haters out there who live for the super;atives that come out the mouth of rich, uninformed and stupid celebrities. Uninformed enough to resort to lies, too stupid to see beyond their sheer contempt for Bush and rich enough to do more for Katrina victims than the average American who supports their lavish lifestyles by buying their CD's for $12.99 at the local Walmart.

You see, by continuing to point fingers at the Bush adminitsration McGraw and Hill aren't helping matters so much as they're showing people their ass. In other words, the liberal strategy stays in effect as the 2 country crooners play the victim card and make Bush look bad in the process. Nothing more, nothing less. Too bad it's gotten way past tiring.

More than a half a year after Katrina and liberals still want to exploit the hurricane and its aftermath for their own gains. For the most part, those accusations have centered on race, racism, and the neglect of black people, specifically by President Bush without mentioning the institutionalized racism, poverty, corrupt government and neglect that has been going on in New Orleans way before Katrina hit. McGraw and Hill also fail to mention that the President has taken on full responsibility for the response to N.O., although most critics and residents of N.O. agree that it was the local governments who failed them most.

As the front man, our President doesn't need our criticism so much as he needs our prayers esp. in light of the fact that I would be hard-pressed for any Bush-hater to convince me that a John Kerry would've done a better job at responding to our country's greatest natural disaster. And in his feeble attempt to be political McGraw fails to note that Bush has visited the devastated area 10 times and has gone out of his way to demand that Congress allocate more federal aide to the region. So, in fact, it is the President's goal to get the region back in shape, but liberals refuse to admit that, instead admonishing Bush for what he hasn't done instead of what he has done. Thus, McGraw and Hill's naive attempts to get across a supposedly potent message just end up being the typical rantings of our resident angry and bitter Bush haters.
