Wipeout Homophobia on Facebook is one of very few fan pages on facebook that doesn’t use their large numbers for selfish reasons, but instead uses their influence to help thousands and thousands of people. They are an integral part of the LGBT community on facebook, and they reach more than 20 million people every month.

Anti-abortionists want you to believe that they are Pro-life but nothing could be further from the truth. Here are just a few of the ways to distinguish the Pro-lifers from those who hide the fact that they are merely Anti-abortion.

As we approach this Labor Day, we might pause to reflect upon the currently trending political demonization of unions, especially public employee unions as the ill that almost single-handedly is bankrupting the country.

Tea Party Caucus. The caucus chairman is Michele Bachmann of Minnesota. As of March 31, 2011 the committee has 60 members, all Republicans.

The 26th amendment (granting the right to vote for 18 year-olds) took only 3 months & 8 days to be ratified! Why? Simple! The people demanded it. That was in 1971…before computers, before e-mail, before cell phones, etc. Of the 27 amendments to the Constitution, seven (7) took 1 year or less to become the law of the land…all because of public pressure.
I’m asking each addressee to forward this page to a minimum of twenty people on their address list; in turn I ask each of those to do likewise.

A humorous interpretation of how the Tea Party, the GOP, and the right-wing view the Constitution.

I keep hearing from bitter Republicans that we got bin laden because of the information from Gitmo detainees. Well, I saw the CIA director under BUSH on CNN today, and he said no. It was from other CIA sites. I’ve also seen other counter-terrorism experts say that we got a lot of information from various different sources.

We are currently griping about the sheer size of our government’s budget, and the debt we have accrued over the years. Republicans complain about social programs, and want to cut them to make up the shortfall-when the real problem is, and has always been- The military spending.

Republicans haven’t clearly outlined a plan for healthcare. This is a short outline of the Republican plan for healthcare, created based on the policies the Republican Party supports.

The Tea Party confuse the debt ceiling with spending ‘on the Obama Agenda.’ The Tea Party implies that if the debt ceiling is not raised, then President Obama will not be able to spend any money on his agenda. The Tea Party ignores that most U.S. government spending is for programs mandated by law or for functions of the U.S. government that existed before Obama.
