“The Marxist media is inflamed with outrage again and my inbox is littered with hate mail and death threats based on comments I made recently on Trunews Radio that the Bible treats homosexuality as a form of rebellion against God even worse (from God’s perspective) than mass murder. In the tradition of the timid modern church, this is the point …

“This is unconstitutional and just as he did with executive amnesty, this administration has pushed forward where he cannot get his radical legislation passed.

This President has said, …

“Arkansas voters got an early Christmas present when Fayetteville put the city council on notice that it wouldn’t tolerate a Houston-type ordinance.

From the HRC’s blog: Last night, LGBT equality took a step backward in Arkansas following a Fayetteville vote to repeal a citywide non-discrimination ordinance that included protections based on sexual orientation and gender identity.

Fayetteville city officials are predicting a large turnout for today’s repeal vote, which is unusual for a single-issue special ballot, but not surprising considering how inflamed the anti-gay side is. Of the 49,000 registered voters in Fayetteville, about 10% voted early. According to Becky Lewallen, the Washington County Clerk, 4,494 people cast their ballot Dec. 2, 3, 4, 5 and …

Hate group leader Tony Perkins says that the opponents of same-sex marriage have been reinvigorated by last month’s Vatican meeting, where the Pope’s message was “like getting a halftime pep talk in the locker room.” Go for the Hail Mary!

Back in August, we all watched into the wee hours of the morning as the Fayetteville City Council endured ten hours of vicious and ugly public comments before approving its LGBT rights ordinance by a 6-2 vote. Anti-gay groups and local churches immediately launched a petition campaign to put the issue to public vote, which is happening today. Last month …

Just in via email: Dear Joe, ABC’s creepy program “How To Get Away With Murder” did not end with the finale since it is now airing the season all over again. New episodes will begin on January 29 and in the meantime the network plans to air reruns – unless 1MM can intervene. This show is about more than murder …

“In last year’s Windsor decision, the Supreme Court decided that its own ‘Emerging Awareness Doctrine’ made sodomy the lawful equivalent of holy matrimony. Those of us who criticized that decision were ridiculed as alarmists for warning that Justice Anthony Kennedy’s decree would have bad consequences. Am I the only one who has noticed that the news has gotten increasingly weird …
